Tutorial on 5.1

Create your own folder on the desktop to put your stuff in.
Open Adobe Audition: and create a copy of your stuff on the desktop, don't work from your zip drive.

File>New>multitrack session>browse your folder off the desktop, change template "surround stems for video master"

this should have already created the appropriate ques on the right
In the media browser find your files, then drag and drop them into the word area

VIEW> mixer
Inside the Mixer View, the most important thing is the track panner, to get to the track panner select the dark gray circle above the slider. You can use the green slice to change which speaker the sound comes from and at what volume.

audition>preferences> audio channel mapping
check that your channels are all in order
if you have any extra channels with no connecting tracks, remove them (change them to 'none')

while working if you want to loop since there isn't a loop function for individual tracks you have to use the slider (in the shape of ']' ) at the end of the track, to loop the track, and you can do this as long as you need to while testing.

While in the mixer changer your read>write while you are in write mode you can "automate" your track. Automating your track allows you to pan it across all the speakers. An example of this would be wind howling, or a plane flying by.
After you write your track you should be able to play it back and hear the difference.
