It depends on the version of atmos.

Full fat cinema atmos can scale to (iirc) 512 channels. (Things may have changed since I last was involved!)

In that case, it's a 7.1 bed, and all the other channels are effectively coordinates in the room, and the processor steers objects between them in real time, rather than having defined tracks.
