Exporting Video with Seperated Audio Tracks

[Stace Carter]

I know Quicktime will allow multiple audio tracks, however I’ve never had to use this feature.

In your export dialog, under “Setting” there’s a menu called “include”. Select Video Only and you’re golden, pretty basic.

You can then solo and export the audio tracks in other passes, or do it a little faster in STP.

You can also export your audio as separate aif or wav files. Another option is to export your audio as an OMF. If you are handing over to a sound post facility, this is actually the best as they can have separate clips plus handles.

Exporting aif or wav will lock in your levels and provide no handles.

I’ve never done that but I know that you can export from FC movies with 6 audio channels. This is mostly used for DVDs with surround audio or whatever.
Go to Users Preferences> Audio Output, and duplicate the “5.1 Monitoring” Preset. Open it to edit and check all the six channels as mono.
I guess than in your sequence setting should be Discreet Channels.
This together with a look to the FC manual may help you.

Thanks,

What I did was go under Sequence->Settings->Audio Output, then selected 6 outputs, each dual mono.

Then I went to my audio tracks in each timeline and right clicked by A1, A2, etc and told each one which audio track to output to. That did the trick!

Now when I open it in quicktime or import it into an FCP timeline, I have all the tracks seperated so each one can be edited or removed individually.

Good to know that it works and that easy.
This are the kind of things that you know are there but you only dig in when you really need it.
Cheers,
Rafael
