Set the 5.1Printmaster and the LtRt Rec track to "R" record



Note the routing on the Printmaster and LtrtEncoder and Ltrt Rec
All channels out feed the 5.1 Rec out and 5.1 Rec out feeds the Ltrt Encoder that track is encoded using the SurCode Plug in and that track feeds the Ltrt Rec track that feeds out via the 5.1 path for monitoring
Must be set just like this example to work.

See this example to show the panning of all the audio outputs for 5.1-all channels should have a panning assignment like this

Example of how the "Surcode" Plug in should be set

Open the Transport tool Go to Window>

Click the Red Record button and then the blue Play button to start the playback and recording of the LtRt and 5.1 outputs

The outputs will be created in real time and can be monitored in the mix window so one can see the process working.
