A maximum six beds is allowed.

A maximum 64 occupied input channels is allowed. Note that beds and objects occupy
different numbers of channels depending on the type, as presented here:

supported only by the Dolby Digital Plus with Dolby Atmos content encoder. All other
bed configurations are supported only for DP590 rendered output monitoring.

2. Click the

 button in the creation window to add a dynamic object.

Note: 

Double-click the dynamic object label to change its name. Press Enter to

confirm the change.

The red icon to the left of the bed or dynamic object indicates that it is not mapped to a
MADI channel.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to add additional beds and/or dynamic objects as desired.

channels, and they can be enabled for presentations.
