  • 4 channel output???

    Posted by Steve Wargo on November 27, 2006 at 11:06 pm

    We are attempting to output 4 channels of audio from a FCP timeline. It keeps mixing channel 3 to channel 1. When we ISO channels, some of them come up a little short on volume. We are testing using the built in audio. The timeline is 23.98 with an HDW2000/1 HDCAM deck. The deck is set up to record 23.98. On the deck, there is normal audio on the meters on 1,2, & 4 but nothing dshows on ch3. FCP will send a signal but it’s either coming out of FCP incorrectly or coming out of the BMD card incorrectly.
    I am crossposting on the BMD forum.

    Too many menus for me to keep track of.

    Many thanks.
