No Multicam Audio Playback in Source Panel (CS6)

[Ht Davis]

You have to select the audio track alone in the nest, (opt+rightclick on audio clip of nested clip), choose multi cam, and choose the audio track by “Camera”–the video track it is linked to. Caveat: you have to link the audio to video, or enumerate a singular audio track to each video track, with all of them linked number-wise (vid1 to aud1 etc). Once you enable the multi cam, you can select a single audio track, or, if you wish to bounce around, you can duplicate the nested clip audio with an opt+clickdrag of the clip down below the master, which will duplicate the track in full, with multicaming, and allow you to select which “Camera” to use for the audio in each track. Then all you need do is figure out which audio to use where (you can have audio follow video, or you can clip on your own, but you’ll have to make clips across all tracks). I prefer a single track, multicamm, that clips when I clip my video, so I can select the audio with a right click later. An extra step, but I break down everything anyway into two separate editing sessions, one for audio only, one for video; that way I can get both done independently of one another, and create the tie in as necessary, keeping style and technique clean and clear.
