  • Multicam editing with 10.0.4 and mix with multiple audio tracks

    Posted by Gerald Bouget on April 19, 2012 at 4:08 pm

    I created a multicam clip in FCP X 10.0.4 using the automatic audio sync.
    There is 3 video tracks and 8 audio tracks.

    The sync is perfect and the multicam editing worked great but I have problem with the final audio mix once my editing comlete.

    I can work on the audio track generated by FCPX when it created the multicam clip and which is a mix of my 8 audio tracks but I can’t work on each of my tracks separately.

    The only way I see is to open the original multicam clip in the Angle Editor and then click on the audio track and open it in the timeline so that I can work on my 8 audio tracks but these are the entire one hour recording while my editing is 10 minutes long.

    FYI audio source is one wav file including 8 mono tracks whic all appear in the Audio Inspector.

    Any idea?
    Hope my english is clear enough!

    The only solution I have heard about is to have everything synched as you have done, Then delete your video by break apart each clip. Then make a compound synched track of your audio, bring this back into FCP and synch again with your original video clips. Then in the angle editor you will have one loudspeaker clip for sound and whatever video cameras you have. You can break apart the compound audio clip to adjust the audio levels within.
