Sony is about to release a handycam that has a 5.1 mic built in. I am considering the purchase of this camcorder. If I import a clip from this camcorder to PD11 will I be able to manipulate the individual sound tracks? I know that there is a box that I can tick to produce 5.1 audio but I believe that the original clips have to have the 5.1 already in them in order for this function to work.

Thanks for any help on this.

I already edited several videos 6 channels of audio, but did not see anything about manipulating each channel separately, and if used WaveEditor is automatically reduced to 2 channel stereo.
I think, if not edited the audio is preserved until the end disk. AMD-FX 8350 / 8GB DDR3
SSD SUV400S37240G / 2-HD WD 1TB
AMD Radeon R9 270 / AOC M2470SWD
Windows 7-64 / PD16 Ultimate

Thank you for the response. I guess that PD11 is more like a "pass through" when it comes to the 5.1 audio channels.
