  AVID to FCP Sound Relink?

  Posted by Laura Creecy on August 13, 2010 at 5:55 pm

  Project:

  offline in AVID MC4
  online in FCP7 & AE

  picture is fine, but I am having problems with the sound… I AutoDuck a AAF file into FCP and the clips for sound come up on the timeline fine, but somewhere in the process they’ve lost the link to the original file name. I can do a reconnect to media for picture and it will link back correctly no problem, but sound does not.

  I wasn’t the asst. so I dont know the exact process but I speculate in the Avid the sound was grouped and subclipped to sync with the picture and it is in this process that it is losing its link to the original file name.

  Is there someway in AVID to ungroup or do something to the sound so that it links back to its original file name? I dont want to have to manually reconnect every clip. We have HOURS of footage.

  The original file name is -T08.wav
  its looking for file in FCP reconnect -/8.new10
  and the clip in the bin is named 01/1 Ditka.new.06 which I assume is part of the renaming when grouping – the Reel column in the bin says -T08A.WAV:2010-06:21 which is the original file and folder
