  • Audio EDL with over 4 tracks

    Besides enabling up to 24 tracks in EDL manager, and selecting A-10, I don’t know how to make this work, I constantly get errors, but when I do only 4 tracks it works fine.

    Do multiple EDLs…4 tracks at a time. The EDL technology is VERY VERY VERY old…meant for tape to tape systems. It really wasn’t meant for more than a few tracks of audio, as tapes were only capable of a few tracks of audio.

    Try this:

    Under edl type, choose “quedos” rather than “cmx3600” or whatever.

    That seems to make a variant of an edl which support multiple audio tracks. Depending on your needs, it may be acceptable.
