Flatten Multicam to send to Audition for Mix
I’m a bit confused, and perhaps I’m doing something wrong.
I have an edit made of many different multicam clips with synced audio, among other music and sound FX. I cleaned everything up and put it all on proper tracks for a mix. I sent the sequence to Audition, and only 3 clips came in. Weird.
Firstly, I realized that it’s because I have multicam clips that aren’t flattened, so I selected everything and went to Multicam>Flatten, but all it did was drop in the entire long audio clip right on top of my track. Not the trimmed portion that was actually in the edit. The other annoying part about this is that it won’t undo, so all of my timeline prep was for nothing, as I have to do it again.
This also doesn’t explain the fact that there were many other clips in my timeline that were not Multicam clips that didn’t come through either.
Is there a way to flatten many multicam clips? The only way I can find to get the audio in trimmed the way I intended without it doing something weird, is to match frame the multicam clip, and then toggle off the ‘Insert and Overwrite as Nests or Individual Clips’ which is incredibly annoying because now I’m going back and reediting a ton of clips again. Why wouldn’t the ‘flatten’ function actually FLATTEN?
How is one supposed to get a timeline into Audition to do a mix? Is this not the whole point of the Connected Workflow of the apps?
