I’ve spoken with AutoDuck. Their product is better if you digitized from tape. Since I recorded P2, I have the raw MXF files prior to their FCP conversion to quicktimes, and I have the quicktimes that I edited with.
I’m going to try to bring the MXF into Avid and use an FCP EDL to reconnect to them. I doubt it will work, but from what I’ve heard, no one has tried that yet.

It is, in fact, a Symphony HD, but I don’t really want to spend the money on Automatic Duck.
What do you think of simply exporting the whole uncompressed movie in FCP, bringing it into the AVID, adding edits at each cut point, then color correcting that way? No handles, but it would work right?

Can’t I import my media from my FCP sequence into the Symphony then use an EDL from FCP to rebuild the sequence?
-
Let me make sure I’m understanding you correctly. Are you saying (1) export one long movie file from my FCP sequence (2) and then export the EDL that you specified from FCP, and then (3) import the long movie file and the EDL into the Symphony and it will automatically make cut points in the long movie file?

My concern is not importing the QT files into the Avid. My concern is having an EDL from Final Cut that the Avid will understand to reference the QT that I import into the Avid.
If I bring all the media from the Final Cut Project into the Avid then do a batch import on the Avid using an EDL from FCP, will the clips reconnect properly?

Thank you. My concern was taking up more HD space by copying the bins. The space is limited (and it’s not mine).
What is the best way of copying a bin to a new drive?

Xpress Pro HD 5.XX Thank you.

How do you recommend I monitor the captured footage? Is it necessary to do it through the KL-Box or can I use the “built-in” audio setting in FCP?
-
Thank you. That was very helpful. I assume if finishing to film, you would recommend capturing to Uncompressed 10-bit HD. However, as you know, there are no SATAe hostcards yet available for the new Quad Powermacs. This presents a problem when wanting to capture footage with a high data-rate.

Any suggestions for DV PAL to NTSC conversion? Apple’s Compressor 2 is very good. I’ve tried DV Film Atlantis and gotten pretty good results, but the interlacing is kind of a problem.
