Hi,
Is it possible to manually append multiple audio tracks to a clip in DR? i.e. select sound sync based on waveform and append tracks, then source the other audio files (e.g. a Lav mic) that DR failed to sync and then add this to the clip. Then all I want to do is simply get DR to append all linked files so if this particular clip is then dragged in to another timeline by the editor, all of the correct multiple audio files come along with it.
The above would be so utterly simple and useful - I just cannot fathom how we can edit our film in DR without some sort of ability to perform this basic elemental task. BM - What am I missing??
I have tried using compound clips as a workaround, however there appears to be bugs (DR 17.1) When I view certain assembled timelines made of compound clips, many of the audio clips have been substituted by audio clips with the name of the video clip and contain no audio - the original synced audio clips have vanished.
Also if I could manually append a clip, then if the editor chooses to use just a single audio track, there may be a way of creating a conformed AAF file for export that would contain all of the original audio as the dialogue editor who would want all of the audio channels of that particular scene. All would still be in sync because the original clips used had all audio synced in the first place. (Hope that makes sense).
Help!
Kind Regards,
Lee
