Downmixing to fewer channels

Whenever you route track output to a track or device with fewer channels, Adobe 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 your original mix. For
example, you might create a DVD with 5.1 surround audio, but some of your customers may use speaker systems or
televisions that support only stereo (2 channels) or mono (1 channel). However, downmixing can also occur in your
project when you assign track output to a track that has fewer channels. Adobe 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.
