Well I was able to confirm by amaing the file back that the track assignments went straight across so all is well. I did find it curious that the QT Ref movie shows a long format column with new lines for each track but the Prores self contained .mov exported movie made from the aforementioned QTRef lists the audio tracks as a long sentence separating the tracks with commas. Not a big deal just a curiosity. I also noticed after assigning the audio tracks to their proper function in the properties "CMD J" window like Left, Right, Center, Lfe, etc.... when I made the prores self contained movie what had been 12 separate items, Sound Track 1 thru 12, in the properties window became one sound track with 12 channels that appear in the Audio setting tab at the bottom of the properties window. I had to manually redo the track assignments. I would have thought this would have carried over. The track numbers and content were the same but on the export they were all listed as mono tracks after the export. That seems odd to me.
