How to link audio files in a project.

PostTue Jul 06, 2021 4:21 pm

Good morning! I am mainly an audio guy and was handed a project in DaVinci. I have the audio files in a folder labeled "audio", but none of the audio is linking when I open the project.

I am not sure how to link the files in the timeline to the folder. At the moment I'm recreating all the edits in ProTools and using the project as a road map, finding the files in the folder based on the video edits and the audio file name, and syncing the audio to the picture. It's taking forever (although I am good at it).

Once I get the audio files linked to the edits, is there a way to export this information to be used in ProTools?

Thanks!
