Hi, I'm embarking on the biggest project I've done, doing the sound and writing music for a feature length Documentary that will eventually be on TV. I've only worked on short projects I've shot myself before, and it's been relatively simple. The editor has used Resolve, so it makes sense to do all the sound design/fixing in Resolve as they have a lot more editing to do.
I have a few questions I hope someone can answer -
• I've been giving the project drive, 8TB full, but I need to work on it when I'm travelling, so my plan is to copy the whole project on to a smaller SSD, excluding the video files. So I'd only be working with the Proxies. Could this lead to any issues?
•When proxies are created, what happens to the audio from the converted video file? Does it create proxies of the audio also? If I don't copy the huge original video files over, then can I even work on the original full quality audio?
•I use Izotope RX10 Advanced, and plan to mostly use it as an 'External Audio Process', sending it to RX, fixing it and saving it. When I send it to RX10, edit it and save it, it replaces the original audio in Fairlight, and puts the original audio on a lane below and disables it. This is great! But...it saves it Documents/resolve project media/capture. But I want it to save next to the original file ideally. Is this possible? If I click 'Save As' in RX10, I can choose place, but then it doesn't replace the audio in Resolve. Also having to manually select each time would slow me down immensely. Any ideas about this?
If anyone has any more tips or warnings about this workflow, I'm all ears. This is all a bit new to me!
thanks
