  4 Video / 3 Audio Multicam

  Posted by Daniel Elder on April 2, 2015 at 9:49 pm

  I am having a hard time setting up one of my scenes for a 4 camera multicam shoot with 3 separate audio channels (Boom, 2 lavs). I have it set up as

  4-1-A
  4-1-B
  4-1-C
  4-1-D

  and the audio is set up as

  4-1-Z_Gabby
  4-1-Z_Brett
  4-1-Z_Boom

  My other multi cams have worked this way, but on this one, FCPX keeps crashing, is there something I should try? I’m gonna try a few more times.

  Thanks,
  Dan

  What sorts of formats and system specs?

  Panasonic AVC on 3 camera’s and Canon

  Shooting at 30 fps / 720p

  Editing on Macbook Pro (mid-2012) / 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 / 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5

  Should be alright to handle it, but it is a longer scene.

  I would suggest switching to proxy mode and see if that makes a difference. The system specs are not ideal for that codec with that many streams.
