The scenario is - single shoot with 3 cameras and 7 mics.
There is no audio on the cameras at all, other than audio timecode on both L/R tracks - syncs up lovely with "update timecode from audio track" .
The audio itself is recorded multitrack on a laptop, with audio timecode on one of the tracks.
In the past, I've recorded 4-channel audio on my Tascam DR-701D, which has direct TC input, so I have metadata TC, and everything syncs beautifully.
But this time I have a 7-track multitrack, with audio timecode on track 8, and obviously I need to synch this up with the video.
And my question is - how can I do that? I've spent hours hunting online, but I've no found a solution.
As a workaround, I'm thinking that I could create a dummy video track exactly the same length as the timecode audio file, render them, update the TC from the audio track, sync that with my video, then manually align the 7 audio tracks to the TC track - but is there an easier way that I'm just not seeing?
