Two channels, but only 1 audio track on timeline

[chromeboy007]

Hey there,

I'm using Premiere CS5.5 to edit some EX1 footage for the first time (as in editing EX1 footage for the first time. Been on the DVCPROHD platform for a while). The footage was shot at 1080 30p on the EX1, MP4 file format. I use several different XDCAM EX 1080 30p timeline and while the video is fine, I'm only getting 1 track of audio. Both L and R are on the same track. I asked the shooter and he said there should be 2 but he is not familiar with Premiere. Can you guys point me to the right direction in getting the audio to show p as 2 tracks?

Thanks

You may get better answers in the Premiere editing forum.

I recently moved to CS5.5 from FCP7.

It seems that where FCP7 treats every channel of audio from a file as a separate track, Premiere will import stereo source files to a single track line. I've been using "Fill Left" and "Fill Right" to pan mono recordings to center when needed.
