I guess that’s my only option. Thanks for your help!

I also can’t figure out how to export a dual mono file. The file defaults to whatever setting I specify in the timeline settings and my only options there are “Stereo” and “Surround”, neither of which seem to accomplish what I’m looking for.

Sorry, I should have been clear. I need to provide a file with the dialogue coming out of one speaker and music coming out of another speaker. I’m afraid the person I’m making this for doesn’t have the technical know-how to turn off what they don’t need (he’s literally going to unplug a speaker to mute the music).

Trying to figure this out myself right now. I have two audio roles in my timeline, “Dialogue” and “Music”.

I am exporting as Master File and selecting “Multitrack QuickTime Movie” for the “Roles as:” option. I assign each role as “Mono”. Exporting the file does not separate each role, they’re center-panned or not-separated or whatever the right term for “both roles play out of both ears in my headphones”

In my timeline properties, under “Audio Channels” I have the options “Surround” and “Stereo”. I have tried both but I get the same result every time.

So:

1) Should I be using a different export setting? (I created a ProRes 422 Dual Mono setting in Compressor and imported it into FCPX, but I didn’t gte the “Roles as:” option when I went to export)

2) How should I configure “Audio Channels” in the timeline properties?

3) Is there anything else I could be missing?

Thanks!

Selecting both keyword collections will display all clips that are tagged with either keyword. If you want to narrow the search down to only clips that have both keywords, you need to use the advanced search.

What is the first frame of your timeline? I’ve occasionally seen this error when the first frame is non-video content (a title or audio only) in a compound clip.
