Downmixing to fewer channels
Whenever you route track output to a track or device with fewer channels, Premiere Pro must downmix the audio to the number of channels in the
destination track. Downmixing is often practical or necessary because a sequence’s audio may be played back on audio gear supporting fewer
audio channels than the original mix. For example, you might create a DVD with 5.1 surround audio, but some customers may use speaker
systems or televisions that support only stereo (2 channels) or mono (1 channel). However, downmixing can also occur in a project when you
assign track output to a track that has fewer channels. Premiere Pro provides a 5.1 Mixdown Type option that lets you choose how to translate 5.1
surround audio into stereo or mono audio. You can choose from various combinations of Front channels, Rear channels, and the LFE (low-
frequency effects, or subwoofer) channel.
Change 5.1 audio to stereo or mono
1. Choose Edit > Preferences > Audio (Windows) or Premiere Pro > Preferences > Audio (Mac OS).
2. Choose a 5.1 Mixdown Type from the menu, and click OK.
To preserve the integrity of left/right channel assignments, you can avoid using downmix options that include the LFE channel.
Routing track output
By default, track output is routed to the master track. You can also route the complete track signal to a submix track or master track by using the
Track Output Assignment menu at the bottom of each track in the Audio Track Mixer. The output signal contains all properties specified for that
track, including automation, effects, pan/balance, solo/mute, and fader settings. In the Audio Track Mixer, all submixes are grouped to the right of
all audio tracks. You can output a track to any submix, but to prevent feedback loops, Premiere Pro allows a submix to be routed only to a submix
to the right of it, or to the master track. The output menu lists only the tracks that follow these rules.
It’s possible to create a send/return arrangement with an effects submix.
Route or turn off track output
Do any of the following:
To route track output to another track, select a submix or Master from the Track Output Assignment menu at the bottom of each track in
the Audio Track Mixer.
To completely turn off track output, click the Toggle Track Output icon to hide the speaker icon for a track in a Timeline panel. This
setting causes the track to output no signal but doesn’t change its signal routing.
