8-channel output question

[savagcl]

What are the settings, in the converter, to output 8-channels?

I have tried various DSp's and still only get 2-channels.

confused (or lost),
thanks,

Re: 8-channel output question

Which format are you converting to?

Normally the output matches the source, however there are DSP effects 'Channel Count' which can increase the channels.

Normally I use MP3.
Just bought a new car (with 8 speakers) and it can accept mp3 and AAC format from a USB.
All converted MP3's just show 2-channels. Will try AAC sometime today and see what happens.

thanks for fast reply,

Re: 8-channel output question

Your car would certainly not play 8 channel mp3, I am not sure 8 channel mp3 even exists.

Even though your car has 8 speakers, 2 channel would be fed correctly though all. Some cars even have 20 speakers, it does not mean you need 20 channel audio.
