A more succinct way of putting it: if I channelsplit (or any other type of upmixing as far as I'm aware) into 6 channels, channel 4 always has a 128hz low pass filter applied to it. I do not want this
My particular use case is I play a game that supports multi-channel live audio streams, but no filters on any audio. So I apply filters myself and position them as appropriate in the game (i.e. a reverb/echo effect in a hallway, a 550hz lowpass outside the main area, etc.). More generally, ffmpeg should allow me to apply any effect to any channel, but it would appear ffmpeg sees me using 6 channels, and decides to use the default 5.1(side) upmixing scheme. I could find little documentation on this behaviour, but this page very briefly mentions this behaviour about halfway down https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/AudioChannelManipulation Also my provided command was a bit verbose. I could simply channelsplit L & R into 3 channels each without any modification to any individual channels. All channels will be duplicates of its original L or R channel, but channel 4 will have a 128hz low pass on it.
