Dave:

I don’t actually know if they color tested the cameras before use, because I didn’t film it myself. I used three camera operators. Lesson learned for sure. I don’t believe they did.

Many thanks,

Debbie

Thanks Niguel:

Yes, this is definitely a challenge. I managed to get it closer, but it is still different. Not as noticeable though.

Thank you so much for your suggestions.

Best,

Hi John:

I just came across this thread. Just the answer I was looking for! Thank you. After importing the AAF file back into Sony, what happens? Does it go back to original place it was extracted from on the timeline, or do I have to open the file and position it back onto the timeline? The audio that is currently on the timeline, will I have to remove it or will the update be automatic since everything is in the same folder? Sorry if these are silly. I have been surfing the internet for the answers.

Best,

Debbie

Hi Grazie:

I found a download of Pink Noise and dropped it into my timeline in Vegas. It read the same as what was calibrated by Studio One’s Tone Generator. I’ll share the link, just in case someone reads this with the same problem. https://duc.avid.com/showthread.php?t=87830

Thank you so much for your help.

All the best,

Hi Grazie:

Yes. I read the blog and saw the video a couple of days ago. It was very informative. I will watch it again. I remember him saying that if the room is small, between 79 to 80db should be the mark. I just calibrated my speakers today at 79db, because my room is small. I used the Presonus Studio One Tone Generator plugin, and the Radio Shack Sound Meter. If I go over 79-80db, my meter throws off the balance, and it seems that the meter is reading that one speaker is more sensitive. When I return to a lower db, everything synchronized.

UPDATE: I just played some of the film in Vegas and the sound is much lower than what I calibrated. Could it be because I didn’t Pink Noise directly in Vegas?

Thank you so much for your help Grazie. It’s very much appreciated.

Best,

Debbie

Hi Grazie:

Thank you so much for the article. Great help! When metering, do you keep your console between 0 to -6db? I was concerned about where the levels should be in Vegas directly while I calibrate my speakers.

Many thanks,
