Chapter 2 Assembling Your Multitrack Project 19
Each track in this multitrack project has a surround panner that feeds into one of the
three surround submixes. These submixes are then routed to the Master bus, which
feeds an 8-channel audio interface that connects to six surround sound speakers.
Don’t let this illustration and explanation worry you—assembling a multitrack project is
easy. You just drag audio clips from the Browser, Favorites, Search, or Bin tab directly
into any track in the Timeline. You can also drag audio clips directly into the
Soundtrack Pro Timeline from your hard disk or any external drives you have connected
to your system. When you’ve assembled your audio clips, you can edit them and route
them to the Master bus using some of the techniques explained in this chapter.
