I’m not sure about sound conversion. Found a way that works but I feel like I’m making it too complicated.
I work in Avid.
Exported ProRes quicktime of the entire 90-minute HD film in 23.98
Conformed to 24.0 in Cinema Tools
Took 5.1 Mono Wav files from mixer and resampled in Wave Agent to 48,048
Imported Wav files back into a 24.0 fps Avid project and selected convert sample rate
(This is the only way I get audio files to come in at the correct duration and in sync to picture, but it’s different than what I read other people do)
Export each 5.1 mono Wav file to a new Wav/48K/24-bit file
“Add surround audio” in Compressor, assigning 6 tracks + video and encode DCP using QubeMaster Xport plugin.
Does this sound right? Feels like too many steps.
Thanks in advance for your help.
