Surround Mixing
SONAR Producer fully supports surround mixing (SONAR Studio can open
surround projects created in Producer, converting them to stereo). SONAR
(Producer) can create finished surround mixes in all popular surround formats,
including Windows Media 9 Pro. You can use a joystick to control surround
panning if you want.
Note: it’s always advisable to know the required sampling rate and audio driver
bit depth for the target medium that your surround project will be used in. That
way you can work in the correct format from the start, without having to convert
later. You can set these parameters in the Audio Options dialog (Options-Audio
command).
To get a complete understanding of SONAR’s surround functions, start with the
“Surround Basics” on page 472.
