Three views of the 5.1 session stacked: the dialogue track list and groups, the routed session with a reverb open, and the dialogue chain's plug-ins

Overview

Dolby Atmos 5.1 works the way traditional 5.1 does but with an easier workflow: clearer object and speaker positioning, and none of the echo problems traditional 5.1 runs into. This session is fully routed, so every section feeds its own bus and every bus feeds a bed, letting you ride a whole section at once. Prefer to work in objects instead? Press the object button and the routing switches over. It comes with the I/O setup, a preset for every plug-in in the chain, a links page for all of them, and a full video walkthrough.

Works with Pro Tools Studio or Ultimate 2023.12 or later, for the built-in Dolby Atmos renderer.
