4.4 Rendering

Rendering refers to the process and algorithms that the RMU uses to render, or play

audio beds and objects while positioning them to, or across, up to 64 speakers.

Positioning for beds is based on multichannel mixes. Positioning for objects is based on

Dolby Atmos metadata.

The Monitor application allows for rendering to the Dolby Atmos format in all operation

modes, or re-rendering to a surround format (such as 7.1 or 5.1 channels) when listening

to a mix in the Monitor Live mode or when playing back a Dolby Atmos print master.

• During monitoring, the RMU renders audio and metadata from Pro Tools and any

client applications (such as the System 5 Panner).

• During print mastering, the RMU renders audio and metadata from Pro Tools and

any client applications (such as the System 5 Panner).

• During playback, the RMU renders material from the print master (located on the

RMU).

4.4.1 Rendering to the Dolby Atmos Format

By default, the Monitor application sets the RMU to render in the Dolby Atmos format.

If the setting of the rendering mode has been changed to re-render the Dolby Atmos

format to a surround format (such as 7.1 or 5.1 channels), you can change it back to

Dolby Atmos in the Monitor application window or the Monitor application preferences.

To change the rendering mode to Dolby Atmos:

1. Do one of the following:

• Click in the

Mode section of the Monitor application window.

• Click

Dolby Atmos Monitor > Preferences, and then click Edit in the Mode line of

the

Renderer section.

2. In the

Select Rendering Mode dialog, click Dolby Atmos.

3. Leave

Objects Only Mode unchecked, unless specifically choosing to render object

audio only. In Objects Only mode, bed material is effectively muted.

4. Click

Select.

4.4.2 Re-rendering to a Surround Format

To re-render to a surround format, change the rendering mode to the desired format, as

follows:

1. Do one of the following:

• Click in the

Mode section of the Monitor application window.

• Click

View > Preferences, and then click Edit in the Mode line of the Renderer

section.
