  • SMPTE Bars and Tone 29.97 fps

    Posted by Evan Muehlbauer on October 16, 2015 at 10:01 pm

    I need SMPTE bars and tone with a countdown for a project that is 29.97 fps (1920×1080). I realize that the only bars and tone I have is 23.98 fps. Can anyone direct me to where I can download a 29.97 version?

    Thanks,

    Evan

    You can import bars from the Avid Supporting files folder (choose 601/709 when importing) and you can create tone from the audio meter on the timeline bar (right click).

    Thanks. Does Avid also supply a countdown, or will I have to find this element elsewhere?

    No countdown from Avid. You’ll have to find one of those online somewhere. I use Job ter Burg’s excellent countdown, but it’s for 23.976/24 project types: https://leaders.terburg.com/

    There is a broadcast version you might be able to modify for 29.97fps

    That page also features a 40sec countdown clock for broadcast masters. Can be used in any project format since it is built as 1fps.
