  • FCP5 and XL1 audio rate

    Posted by Peter Ralph on July 5, 2005 at 3:29 pm

    No ASC in FCP5 – footage from XL1-S captures fine at 48.0 kHz. Footage from XL1 seems to be erratic sometimes capturing at 48.0 kHz and sometimes at 48009.2/3. It’s not just the length of the clip – I’ve got a 2 minute clip at 48.009.2 and an 8 minute clip at 48.0 – any ideas as to why this might be happening?

    hi Peter,

    Since the DV revolution Cannon has always recorded DV audio strangely. It has never been possible to capture long Cannon clips without going out of sync.

    But you say even your short clips are weird? Do they go out of sync? Did you try using ‘FireWire basic’ as your deck control protocol? Just a thought.

    If everything is in sync, then perhaps just set your timeline audio to ‘medium quality’ and render the high quality audio at the end of the project.

    Let us know what you find out.
