13-channel?

When I check the file info for each of the unzipped WAV files, the (Apple) system indicates 12 channels (which I assume is the equivalent of 7.1.4), and I'm wondering what the 13th channel would be used for?
EDIT: BTW, I appreciate your info about being able to play Dolby Atmos downloads from the Audite site with Jriver. So no additional processing or conversion of the files was necessary - you just played the unzipped .wav files directly with Jriver? BTW, I checked the Jriver site a couple of hours ago, and there's a great discussion about Dolby Atmos there on one of the forums. Can you also play Auro 3D files (like those on the 2L site) directly in Jriver? TIA.

Well, the one I chanced to open was 13 but others were 12 channels. No idea why. (FWIW, I have a 40 channel one from SFSO

Also, the files we are discussing are WAVs (zipped or not) and, though they may be derived from or the basis of Atmos or Auro3d, are not encoded and do not require anything special to play them. For real Auro3d, there is a VST plugin decoder that runs in Jriver.
- Thanks, Kal! My immediate future is becoming clearer and clearer! [nt] ;-) - Chris from Lafayette 11:17:10 07/08/24 (0)
