  sync failure – fcp 7, two prores clips

  Posted by Tom Sanders on September 9, 2011 at 9:25 pm

  I had pretty good success with the trial version of PluralEyes, but since purchasing it, I can’t get a single clip to sync.

  Sources are two prores quicktimes; one with audio from a pro mic in a vo booth, the other from a flipcam (also in the booth)shooting video from 3-4 feet away, using a camera mic. Good levels and no distortion on either track.

  Both sources were converted to prores, 23.98, 16 bit, 48k, prior to importing into FCP 7. The audio-only track has had a video element added to it in FCP, exported, then reimported so that the clip would be seen as one by FCP.

  One track is mono on two channels, centered; the other is mono on a single track.

  I tried, in order:

  – ‘no options’
  – try real hard
  – level audio
  – markers

  Complete fail every time. No error messages, it just doesn’t sync the clips.

  Any ideas?
