Using Arraysync with 5.1 or 7.1 dolby surround sound?
Posted: June 1st, 2015, 12:29 pm
I'm in the process of preparing a 4 channel video installation with multi-channel sound, played back hopefully with mac mini's using array sync, which i've used several times in the past with great success. I'm wondering if it's possible to playback the following files using array sync:
1) a prores quicktime file with AC3 audio and be able to go out of the line output with an optical cable to an amp/decoder
2) a quicktime file with an interleaved multichannel audio file that could then be mapped to an external sound card
Granted in these scenarios, only one of the 4 videos has the audio files on them.
I'm trying to think through my set-up to figure out what is possible, it would be great to get feedback on this.
Thanks in advance!
