Not sure what to feel about this -= it is good that the file is
recognised for what it is (though the extension is not directly
supported), but disappointing that they will not quite bring themselves
to write it too.
But SoundForge, for instance, actively blocks the opening of files with the
amb GUID, so yes, progress of a kind; and the ability to use the spectral
editing facilities on a multichannel file counts a lot for me.
You can create a Multitrack session, the choices for "Master" output are
just: Mono, Stereo, 5.1. Individual tracks can be mono or stereo.
I challenged a senior developer on this, and he replied:
"You can use files of any channelization within your multitrack session,
but the track and master outputs will always be either Mono, Stereo, or 5.1
for this release."
When I asked for further explanation he replied with this post:
<http://www.audiomastersforum.net/amforum/index.php/topic,8126.msg73219.html#msg73219>.
You might want to review the earlier posts in that thread for context.

(I hope to have a chance to try this beta for myself in a week or two; it
turns out that my son was already testing an earlier beta at his studio
before this announcement.)
