Depending on your Dolby Atmos system and workflow, you may also use any of the

following optional authoring tools:

• Dolby ComPanSate plug-in: If you are creating objects from multichannel mix files,

that is created when summing panned sources together.

The System 5 Panner application provides support for mapping x and y axis

positioning of a Dolby Atmos object to joysticks on an Avid System 5, as well as

mapping the panner controls of each Dolby Atmos object to a dedicated channel strip

(or panner strip). See the System 5 Panner Application for Dolby Atmos Manual.
