Thinking out loud… Feel free to chime in. 🙂
The back story…I’ve been editing a TV show for over a year. Usually I make a DV-cam master, take it to a post house and have a digi-beta created. Then the audio mixer works with the digi-beta. Then I take the mixed digi-beta to the post house and they make another digibeta, closed caption it, QC it and satellite it. I am trying to alleviate the first digi-beta transfer and have the audio mixer lay-back to the DV-cam.
Since I don’t have an RS422, I was going to make my master on a DV-cam via firewire using a DSR-11. However if I do this can the audio mixer still do an audio lay-back using the 1800? As I am sitting in my edit bay talking to myself my thoughts are that this is not possible. Am I correct in that I would need to make the master via RS422 using the 1800 so the audio and video channels are separate?
Any thoughts?
