Audio Out of Sync on Export?

PostTue Aug 03, 2021 12:22 am

Hey everyone.

Delivering a 4K R3D RAW short film @ 4K 2160 DCI as a DNXHR 422 HQX and I'm encountering an issue I've *never* seen before. The project is in sync, plays in sync, but on export the audio is out of sync. I don't know why the audio is drifting and I've *never* had this issue before.

The footage lives on a RAID 8 TB Drive, and I'm rendering to the same drive. I've rendered it about four times, with the first two renders having no audio sync. It's only been in the last two renders where the audio is crazy out of sync. I can confirm that it's in sync on timeline though.

Furthermore, I tended to get a GPU Processing error when I had the client drive in (strange..), so I ended up copying all the files and relinking them here and tripple checking the audio is in sync.

Can someone offer some advice? I've NEVER seen this before and It's screwing so much up right at the end of the project. I normally have no issues syncing and use a 2 pop at the head and tail of the project.

Mods, please delete this.

Found out what it was:

Strange setting on the audio panel about OUtput track bus. Fixed that and the audio was good to go on the following render :)

it's strange that it was somehow toggled differently between renders, I barely if ever mess with audio.
