playing audio in stereo and sampling rate question – FCP7
Hi,
A couple questions about the audio in FCP7:
1- I am editing some music videos. The source footage has 48khz audio sampling rate. But i am replacing the entire audio track with a song which is 44khz. Should i change my sequence setting to 44khz or leave it at 48khz?
2- After placing the song in the audio track in FCP7, it was playing in mono when it should be stereo. it seems all the settings in FCP are stereo so i don’t understand why it plays in mono. One thing i tried that seemed to work is i changed the PAN of the audio clip from 0 to -1 and voila the track played in stereo. However, the right and left channels of the audio are linked together, i don’t know how to separate them. If i separate them, then i can change the pan on the right channel to +1 and keep the left at -1. But is that even necessary? For some odd reason it seems to be playing in stereo now even though the right and left channels are linked with a pan setting of -1.
Please let me know,
thanks -

you should convert the audio to 48k
“it seems to be playing in stereo now even though the right and left channels are linked with a pan setting of -1. ”
yep, that’s FCP way of designating Stereo on a Stereo clip.
+1 will reverse the left & rightnick
