That didn’t fix the problem totally, but it may end up helping out with a couple other issues. As far as posting a screen shot, the issue doesn’t occur until it reaches the preview monitor. It looks fine on my computer and when I export a ‘QuickTime’ movie, etc, but once I cut to tape…ta-da!

Side note: I see you’re working on a film. I’m part of a weekly ‘movie podcast’ so once you get a trailer up for Peristroika, feel free to contact us and we’ll try to give you a plug. Check it out and see if you’re interested at http://www.moviesfornobodies.com or just send us an email and tell us a little about your project.

Thanks again.

Yes, we just figured it out. Under your “Audio/Video Settings” you need to check your “Device Control Presets”. In your Summary area check your audio device control mapping. Mine had switched to 8 channels and it needed to be 2. Even though I changed it in the other “windows” it was still showing 8 Channels in there. Once we switched that I had no troubles.

Let me know if that works for you.

Good Luck!

I did check the audio channels I needed on the “Edit to tape” window. As far as trouble shooting goes…I’ve went through other FCP forums, the FCP manual, spoke with the tech who set up the system, etc.

I am able to see levels on my BETA deck and I can crash record onto the BETA and I do get audio that way. It seems like a setting that I am just missing somewhere and the frustration of feeling like a pretty big tool is starting to set in.
