Audio Formats
Supported audio formats include WAV, OGG, MP3 (mono), multi-channel playback up to 64 channels ASIO, and Windows audio. Channel mapping operates on the basis of file naming. Audio assets on a timeline can be directed to specific channels and devices.
Audio assets are placed on timeline layers in the same way as visual media. As with video, audio assets can be looped: right-click the asset and select ‘Loop’
Channel mapping
Channels are by default mapped by name, either: _L, _C, _R, _BL, _BR, _FR, _FL, or _1, _2, _3 etc.
Alternatively, use the channel offset property.
