5.1 Track Layouts, Routing, and Metering
Figure 5 shows the relationship between Pro Tools I/O Setup configurations, audio interface and
channel meters when mixing in 5.1. Pro Tools on-screen 5.1 meters are always mapped according to
the Film standard L, C, R, Ls, Rs, LFE. Output meters on Control|24 and Pro Tools audio interfaces,
however, follow channel mapping in I/O Setup.
