What happens to multi-position sounds as they become Audio Objects? [closed]

This is a question sent to Audiokinetic via email and posted here to benefit everyone. 

What happens to multi-position sounds as they become Audio Objects? Can Audio Object have two positions at the same time, or will Wwise simply create two Audio Objects? 

closed with the note: Wwise will create two Audio Objects. You will still get a single decoding (e.g. Vorbis) and a single set of A-M effects, but two Audio Objects will be spawned at the point of being mixed into busses.

Wwise will create two Audio Objects. You will still get a single decoding (e.g. Vorbis) and a single set of A-M effects, but two Audio Objects will be spawned at the point of being mixed into busses. The same applies for Spatial Audio features like diffraction, where each virtual emitter will become a separate Audio Object.
