    There four clips on the timeline, the last two are the first two broken apart by FCX command. Maybe it is worth mentioning that the files didn’t come directly from the camera, but were at first synced by Resolve, then edited.

    Thank you for reply, Marc. I haven’t got the EDL-plugin and X2Pro’s AAF unlikely is an option to open in Resolve. So I can’t make these attempts. My workaround for now is to break apart all clips in the timeline and than make an XML. It works (except for multiclips, which cannot be broke and require a force conform in Resolve), but it takes some time.

    But if you go back to my example, it is clear that the timeline is very simple: two clips, nothing more. There is no compounds, layers, effects, syncing, multiclips, just two clips straight from the event. From my nearly 700 clips (the same Arri Alexa) part of them behaves like first clip from the example above and part like second. And I do not see the difference. That’s what confuses me.

  • My assets are usual mono 48 kHz WAV-files from Aaton recorder.

    Out of curiosity I had a number of attempts with different kinds of sound. I gave up the job, so now there is no rush. At the moment, this is what I see:

    The sound of the clip, which lies on the storyline in synchronized clip, will takes a slot “storyline” in audio channel configuration under its own name. Stereo or mono – depending on the format of the original sound. (By the way: I could not understand how FCX picks that clip. It is not always video or the longest clip or the first clip in a list.)

    All other clips regardless of their number will be merged into a single track named a1. If there was at least one stereo track, a1 will be stereo, otherwise it will be mono. In both cases, a1 is a mixdown.

    It makes FCX useless in real work with multichannel sound, if I have to synchronize video and sound inside FCX. And that was my exactly my case.

  • How can I change the number of tracks of synchronized clip before creating it? It is created without any additional requests. And in the settings there is nothing about it.

  • The issue is not related to the content of the tracks. I’ve posted other screenshots, where there are no empty tracks.

  • Updated.

  • If I understand you, you do not think the situation I’ve got is a program’s bug?
