Yes. Look at AVIAMFMixPresentation, which has an array of AVIAMFSubmix, 
which in turn have an array of AVIAMFSubmixLayout plus an array of 
AVIAMFSubmixElement per submix, the latter which has a 
AVIAMFParamDefinition per element.
If the AVIAMFMixPresentation is the component, the AVIAMFSubmix would be 
the piece, and then we ran out of levels.
