Audio Sync Questions???
I having trouble trying to re connect the audio in a project. The video in the timeline is able to reconnect with no problem, but when I try to reconnect the audio it is out of sync and I get a error message “Media Start and End” and “Rate”. My question is how can I be getting this error message when it is the same media that I am trying to connect to? Also is there a way to reconnect without trying to reedit the audio or not get this error ?

Can you give us more info?
DV, HDV, 24p, 60i…? Did you export the audio to Soundtrack and now are trying to re-import? Did you re-capture lost footage? Change hard drives? Re-name clips?
Did you change the frame rate?
Maybe project was 30p and now something happened and it is 24p?
If this is the case, and the original timeline was 30p and 100sec long you’d have 3,000 frames. If FCP puts that 3,000 frames onto a 24p timeline, legnth is now 125sec, but 100sec of audio is tripping FCP up, giving errors and sync issues.

The animation project was done in 29.97, but after looking at some of the video and audio clips, I think it was done in two different frame rates. The video was brought in at 29.97 and the audio was at 24. The timeline edit was at 29.97. Is there some way I can try to marry the two with different timelines?

Can you reset the properties of the audio to be 29.97? Or just re-import the audio?
If not, this might not be the best way, but if it works…
Try exporting all the 24fps content as one video, and all the 30fps as another. Then take those clips and put them in the same timeline and hopefully FCP syncs them up together.
