  • Changing Audio?

    Posted by Steve Cohen on February 4, 2007 at 2:36 am

    They guy who digitized my footage for me made all the clips 2 Channel Mono.

    So when I open a clip in the Viewer both channels are pannned center.

    I want Channel 1 panned left and 2 right, I know I can do this to the clip after I place it in the timeline, but I would like to change the master clip in the browser so that every time I use the clip it is correct.

    I can do it clip by clip, but is there a way to change all 100 or so clips at once?

    Do it to one, and copy and paste attributes to the other clips.

    Place everything in the timeline. Select all audio from audio track 1 in timeline and select Modify/Audio/Pan. Do the same for track 2.

    Unless I’m doing something wrong, you can’t paste attributes to the clips is the browser only to timeline clips.

    Again, this only effcts the clips in the timeline.

    I haven;t started editing the piece yet and I want all my clips to be panned a certain way, so if I pull a clip rom the browser 2 or 3 times, the audio will be set the same every time.

    The only way I can think to do this is to do what either Steve or Tom suggest and the take all the clips in the timeline and drag them ack into the browsr so they are now my master clips.

    Any other suggestions, would be appriciated.

    Quite right you have to place them in a sequence first before you can paste attributes, but that should take very long.

    Steve, you can do either of the steps outlined above, then drag those clips from the timeline back to the Browser. I would put them in a new bin and keep the originals around in an archive bin.

    Thanks;

    Thaqt’s what I wound up doing, but I thought there may be another way to change the original clip.

    I guess not.

    Thanks again.

    It’s frustrating to me too since I always want to go the other way… FireStore forces everything to be saved as stereo, and I have no use for stereo… Oh well.
