  23.98 audio match

  Cow Gurus,

  Here is what seems like a standard audio/film issue that has worked in the past. Now we can not explain our problems in syncing HD dailies inside FCP- Studio 2 upgrade version.

  Problem is that field audio is recorded 48.048kHz 30 NDF SMPTE timecode for pulldown to 48kHz to match film shot at 24fps and transfered at 23.98. My understanding was that 48.048k audio in a 48k should play slightly slower than originally recorded matching the slowdown to the film, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Resampling the audio to 48k externally does allow the audio to hold sync, BUT when the editor makes subclips from the sequence the audio and video in the subclip are out of sync by several seconds (by different amounts for different subclips).

  This is standard film to HD workflow that others have probably seen previously, what are we doing wrong? Help! (are my lips in sync?)

  Thanks, Film Joe
