I used to have an Avid FastTrack interface…it has a single mic input, I think they make a 4-input version as well…It’s always worked great in ProTools and Soundtrack Pro so I assume it would work in Audition however I can’t confirm it as I sold it not too long ago.

I actually used Audition for the first time on a project not too long ago after Avid told me I had a free upgrade to Pro Tools 11 without telling me before I surrendered my 10 license I needed an iLok 2 to get it (which runs about 50 bucks, guess it serves me right for not reading the fine print lol). Never the less, I was very pleased with the workflow save for a few idiosyncrasies I’m sure I’ll get the hang of.

I’ve uploaded a view from the WFM of the exact same frame, first still is the QT pro res file, the second is the project directly in PP. As you can see if you look side by side, there is a SLIGHT shift between the two (look on the lefthand side near the 0 level to see what I mean), All of this is starting to feel like splitting hairs but I’d like to know that what I’m seeing when I grade is what I’m getting in output.

Here are two screens of the export settings I most commonly use, first is a ProRes master of the project and the second is my most common online delivery profile. As you can see in the output preview monitor the blacks are not as deep as in the program monitor on the right.

However, when bringing the file back into premiere as you had suggested the black levels are correct. Still my main concern is final delivery and how it will look in the setting it lives in (usually vimeo, youtube or a player like brightcove).

AH! Very interesting software…been playing with it…so if I assume correctly in an offline you would use QTChange to give it timecode and make the REELNAME the same as what you’ve named the folder that holds the DCIM and MISC folders? Is that correct workflow for an offline??
