    I have a problem with the synchronize between video and sound. I record with 4 camera, 3 Sony PMW-EX3 and 1 Sony HVR-Z7E. The sound its record detached and add it after with multicam.
    when I import the files for multiclip the video files from Sony PMW-EX3 is synchronizing with the sound but the video files from Sony HVR-Z7E isn’t synchronize. I cant figure why? can be a settings from the cameras or…? thanks for answering.

    All of the video has to be the exact same format for multiclips to work right. Is this the case? If so, are you syncing by in points or did you slave timecode? or?

    The format are the same for both cameras and i syncronize with a clap
    (and then with points for multiclip).

    How was the external sound recorded? Was the sample rate 48kHz?

    I had another thought. Did the EX3s and the Z7E record in the same codec? That’s a requirement for multicam.
