Yes I agree, and your video is a way to do that.

Giving the choice I would sync in AVID (or whatever NLE) as it seems much more robust in keeping that original audio data.

Hey Michael,

That’s the method we ended up using. Proxys with 32 bit audio and separate aaf’s for A/V.

It’s just simpler for our workflow.

Glenn,

This is really great, thank you. The only difference in my situation is that the editor is in a different city and they don’t have the raw camera on their system.

But I think it still works as long as I send them the original audio.

Thanks for the Video, great work!!

[Devin Clarke]

Thanks for this. I think it could really help someone.

I’m not looking for a multichannel answer. Because they asked for ‘ printed as its own Mono track,’ it doesn’t look possible with what I know about Premier.

I’ve just tested exporting in Resolve and had success. There is a way to export all tracks as discrete mono tracks. But adding all files individually and using these settings. (in DR16)

Thank you for pointing out the 3 dB drop in the left channels. You save me some headache there!

All the best.

Hi Shane,

I have Resolve as well. But struck out there too. Do you have a workflow to export all 8 tracks as mono seperate discrete channels?

Thanks!

Hi Simon,

That’s not good, lol. How do you see it working?

The reason I don’t make a 5.1 and stereo mix file, (as your first post suggests) is they have asked for:

‘The audio should be exported as 24-bit, and each channel should be printed as its own Mono track, rather than delivered as a 6-channel and a 2-channel track. Be sure to export the channels direct so they are not mixed together.’

Do you have a suggestion as to the correct export, without getting the -3db gain and exporting mono tracks?

Or do I have to export as 5.1 and stereo to make it work? If you explain it to me, I can try and explain it to them and maybe get my film in that way.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all your responses. The film has been mixed already and I had the stems. It is for quality control, so they are checking all the audio channels and video elements for anything a distributor or network might reject.

I did find the answer though, had to patch each track in the timeline 1-2,3-4,5-6, and 7-8, in the mixer then export as mono tracks in the exporter 1-1, 2-2 etc, as discrete.

When I exported a test and re-imported, I could see all the tracks where perserved.

No answers? Ok must be impossible.

I’ll make a feature request.

Thanks Glenn, Ya its all good. Reconnecting has been going fine, even without generating HQ MXFs.

thanks for your help.

Cheers
