Now it’s time to assign your audio tracks to one of the buses.When finished, the mixing console should look like this: In the Mixing Console window, press the Insert Bus button 4 times to insert the 4 buses we will need to map to the audio channels in our render template.Start by bringing up the Mixing Console by pushing the mixing console button above the Master fader.You can substitute any render template that supports multichannel but it’s important to know that not all render types support multichannel. Important Note: Throughout this tutorial I use the QuickTime Avid DNxHD template from a previous tutorial. In this example I’m going to set up a 4 channel render template but you can use as many channels as your render type supports. This tutorial shows you the entire procedure for setting up both your project and the render template so that you always get the multichannel audio that you expect.

Rendering multichannel tracks to multichannel files is easy once you understand how. Setting up a multichannel render template in Vegas Pro requires that your project is set up correctly otherwise you won’t get the render that you expected.
