  • Proxy audio workflow?

    Posted by Steven Gonzales on October 23, 2007 at 5:58 pm

    I’ve been getting questions from an aquaintance about editing with mixed down audio.

    This is a film with multitrack recording (I don’t know how many tracks) and they want to sync and edit with a two track mix down, then later conform and pull in all the audio tracks.

    I think this could be done either with EDL in final cut, or by placing the audio timecodes into Cinema Tools.

    Has anyone used this workflow, and could offer any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    So, if you need to make a cut where there’s music, you cut the music?

    They might have 8 tracks of production sound. They merge that all to 2 tracks, sync those 2 tracks to their telecined video, and edit with 2 tracks of audio.

    Then in audio post, they want to pull in all 8 tracks for every shot.

    I’ve worked with 4 tracks of production sound, but I cut them all in for every shot, so they were instantly available to sound post via OMF.

    I guess these folks have too many tracks to edit with the originals.
