I have bought them both, I just wasn’t sure if they were the same sound effects wise….it appears that they are.

Theres just like, 400 tapes here, and that will basically double the time. I think I will just capture right into the machine and make dvds where appropriate!

But thanks for the advice!!!

Thanks Shane,

Is there a difference in 145 vs 175?

I shoot everything from commercials, events, to music videos, short narratives, etc. I own a T2i and have been using that a lot lately. For decent budgets, I rent, sometimes the Red. I’m interested in the AF100.

I figure if I bring in everything high quality to start, there are a lot fewer steps in the end….

December 1, 2011 at 5:11 pm in reply to: Syncing Canon 7D footage with a separate audio source!

there are a few issues you could be encountering.

1. if the camera was far away from the audio recorder, you can certainly experience adrift, in which case, ignore the audio waves and go directly to the lips. try to find P or B sounds, people clapping hands, hits, things like that much simpler.

2. Make sure the audio you have is at 48k, and if not, make it so by rendering it out at 48k. Different sample rates can make things drift out of sync, and the waveforms will not match.

3. In case the 2 devices just simply won’t sync…they could have different time bases…..you are hooped.

In that case, if all else fails, what has worked for me in the past when this happens, is that you need to watch and sync. Find a sync point, watch it. When the drift gets to bad its unwatchable, go back, sync, repeat…keep going…..can be very time intensive, and it may ultimately not work…

Good Luck!!! If all else fails, find a person who really knows Pro-Tools to help. Even if you have to pay them

bringing in footage right off of a p2 is fine. must be something with the ntfs format of the drobo. i just clean installed my machine from scratch, everyhting is tip top.

strange.

thanks for the help!

the workflow is a bit different this year. i sit on set and manage all this insane p2 data. its not easy…..we save lots of image sequences as well!

ive noticed that if i make in and out points, a few frames and out from the start and end…it seems to work.

strange.
