  Bizarre audio drift issue

  Posted by James Fleischel on August 19, 2008 at 1:11 am

  Hello-

  I just sat down this morning to begin editing a music video (shot in DVCPRO HD @ 24fps using Panasonic HDX 900 cameras). The video is performance-based, and, at the shoot, the artists played along to the song from their album (the song was played from a CD and run through a PA via a monitor for each performer) so that all the footage could be synched up to the track in editing.

  However, when I lay the audio track down with a take from the shoot, the audio track (an AIFF file imported from their album- the EXACT same track they played to during the shoot) gradually loses synch with the video. I’ve edited several music videos using this same format and method (the same cameras, even) and have never encountered this problem. The audio settings for the captured video and the audio from the CD match (48khz, 16 bit).

  I can’t figure out what is going on. Could it be an issue stemming from dropped/deleted during the DVCPRO HD 1080pA24 digitizing process?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
