Hi John,

I’ve always been a fan of MOTU’s audio interfaces and I’m hoping to pick up one of their new AVB audio interfaces in the near future. They are workhorses, highly flexible, durable, and will last quite a while. I usually use Pro Tools to record VO. Avid just recently released a free version of Pro Tools (called Pro Tools First) that you can try out. I think you can record a few tracks of audio in the free version.

Best,

Ryan

That’s great you find someone that has iZotope. Here’s a tutorial on what you need to do:

It is usually wav. 48kHz for film/post and 44.1kHz for music.

Hi Michelle,

Your music editor can export multiple AIF/WAV files of their music edit so you can import these into FCP. If each music cue is a different file or “checkerboarded” between two files, then the director has the flexibility to experiment with the cues. If the director wants to make changes to these tracks, he/she can, and you can just send the music editor back an AAF back which would show all the cuts you made to the music. The music editor can then conform to this – it should be an easy conform. Does that make sense?

I do not recommend having AAFs exported out of Pro Tools to bring into FCP.

I would go the X2Pro route. Believe me, the audio folks would appreciate it as it preserves much needed metadata! They’ve made a bunch of improvements to X2Pro and I’ve been able to handle their AAFs with ease.

I think I responded to this same post on DVXUser but will copy and paste my response below…..

For Final Cut Pro? Yes:

I’ve sent this link out to so many picture editors in the past few years, and it works!

I would expect those results actually and to me that is normal. However, if you have access to a Pro Tools machine, you can use the X Form plugin to address this. I’ve done this exact thing extensively and though it takes a while for long files, it works.

Does Premiere let you pan the right channel to the Center?

Your example didn’t open up for me, but I think I know what you’re referring to. Is there any chance you can ADR/loop the line? Does your project allow that?

July 31, 2015 at 9:31 pm in reply to: Edit Change List

Are you sending the change list off to a sound department? If so, they can use flattened video EDLs (one from the old seq and one from the new) to generate their own change list and assist with the conform. Many Change Lists are horrible and unusable so we prefer to use EDLs instead.
