[Rafael Amador]“Then try opening the music with QT and save it as .aiff.
Make sure that is 48 Khz. “

Yes! It worked, thank you, Rafael. Audio is not my strong suit.

[david holmes] “Would I have any problems getting Compressor and DVD STudio Pro to make a nice looking movie based off of my 24p timeline? ”
[Rafael Amador]No problem. When you make the DVD from a 23’98 movie, Compressor add the pulldown so the DVD will be standard NTSC.

Thanks. That is good to know.

[david holmes] “in Garageband and exported as a .wav. In the 24p timeline it sounds like crap. Are there certain settings I should use for the audio to ensure quality sound?”
[Rafael Amador]Your audio may have a TC track and FC read it as 29,98 fps.
Duplicate the file and open it with QT.
Open the Movie properties and delete the TC track.
See if its works.

Hm. No, there is no TC track, just a plain old sound track. I had the same idea, that there was some sort of TC on the audio. I’ve been afraid to start animating to it in case those gremlins in the track mean that some kind of conversion is going on and then when i got the “good” audio into my sequence the timing would be all wrong. Audio sounds fine in a 29.97 sequence but in 24p sounds like a record with a scratch across it…

I followed the directions. ..So why are the chimes coming in the middle of the render instead of at the end? A fluke?
