17. For the groups that will be used to record audio and write panner automation, create
audio tracks and make them members of their respective groups, as follows:
• Rec Ready
• Automation
18. Insert Panner plug-ins on each panner track and assign an object number to each
plug-in.
a. On the Pro Tools mixing preferences page, click (enable) Plug-in Controls
Default to Auto Enabled. This will eliminate the need to manually enable
automation for each inserted Panner plug-in before recording Dolby Atmos
metadata.
b. Use the All Panners Group to select the panner tracks only.
c. Insert Panner plug-ins to the same insert position on all selected tracks using the
(<Option>+<Shift>) shortcut.
d. When prompted, autoassign numbers to all of the new plug-ins. For more
information, see Inserting Multiple Panner Plug-ins and Automatically
Assigning Object Numbers.
19. Sort the tracks by name, so that each panner track now immediately follows its
respective object audio track.

based groups are enabled.

TrackInput to set all bed and object tracks to
TrackInput mode so that the mix audio can be monitored.
23. Configure the panner track to record Dolby Atmos metadata from System 5 and any
other clients (such as an iPad Panner-Controller).
• Make sure the Automation group is enabled.
• Set the automation mode for all panner tracks by setting the automation in the
