Thanks. Glad it wasn’t just me. Yeah, I guess if you know about the behavior and you keep your layers opened and select them first you can deal with it. It is quite a pain when you are trying to set up 10 layers, each at various z positions I’ve found that the way to go is to disable the filters first, set all of your layer z positions, then turn the filters back on. Of course the other option is to apply the same filter set to each individual layer and never apply it to a group.

Maybe in the next dot release…

Ha. Alright, well, I guess that’s the way it has to be then. You’d think that FCP would handle all of this seamlessly.

Thanks man.

Ok. I see where I was going wrong with regards to FCP always mixing to stereo. You have to right click on each track and force it to a specific audio output track. By default FCP makes them all 1,2. Same has to then be done on your master sequences.

This still doesn’t help with Soundtrack Pro though. Now I get to export big chunks of audio, one AIFF per track set, but I can’t use Send To Sound Track and then refine dialog clips and so on. Seems like my only option is to open a sequence, Send To Sound Track, make the tweaks and then compile the entire film.

Unless of course someone has a nice trick!

Ah. That’s exactly it. Thanks.

Wow, you’d think there would be a way to do this without an expression like a simple share or link button.
