I got the following delivery specs for audio. I'm use to delivering mono stems that I label using the preset names available in QT 7 for (L,R,C,Lfe,Ls,Rs) Lt,Rt. But this delivery spec wants stereo and 5.1 tracks. I suppose I could turn the tracks into stereo and 5.1 in Avid before exporting a QT Ref or maybe even a same as source. What I'm not sure of is the labeling requriements mentioned. Where do you add the labels? I guess I've been doing it in QT 7 as mentioned above but that only has certain name choices. Any insight would be appreciated.

• Each Soundfield group MUST be arranged into a single track. e.g. 5.1 would be a single track
with 6 channels.
• All Audio channels MUST be labeled in the file metadata using Multichannel Audio
Labeling as specified in SMPTE ST 377-4:2012.
• Stereo labels MUST match the method used to create the sound field: LtRt for matrixed
downmix, LoRo for simple downmix, LR for stereo mix.
• All audio tracks MUST conform (be synchronous) with video and have the same duration.
• Near field mixes are preferred over a Theatrical.
