PrP - Additional Processes - Sync Audio and Video Files - TC
This guide will take you through the process of synching video with externally recorded audio.The goal is to make merged clips in the Project panel, in which the the video and the audio tracks are linked to make one independent clip.If you have any questions, or would like to expand your knowledge, do not hesitate to ask a post-production specialist. | |
| First, create three bins in the Project Panel: - Merged - RAW Audio - RAW Video |
| Import your raw video in your RAW Video Bin Import your audio in your RAW Audio Bin Name your media - Keeping track of media can get out of hand very, VERY, VERY, quickly in this environment, so be on top of it from the get-go!! |
Merged Clips are Proxy File The Merged Clip is not an external media file, it is simply a proxy file that points to the different pieces of media that has been merged into it. | |
| In the Project Panel select/highlight the video clip and the audio clip(s) to be synchronised |
Merging with Multiple Audio Clips You can merge up to one video clip and 24 audio clips. | |
| Right click on one of the highlighted pieces of media and select Merge Clips... from the contextual menu OR Choose Clip > Merge Clips... from the top menu |
| In the Merge Clips dialogue box that appears, select the method by which to synchronize the clips: Timecode Be sure to select the 'Remove Audio From AV Clip' check box - this will remove any reference audio attached to the original video file Next, click OK |
| In the Project Panel, a new clip will appear labeled the same as the original video clip, but with the word ‘Merged’ attached to the end |
| Move the clip to the Merged Bin Rinse and Repeat for all your clips |
Synch Audio with Audio Audio-only clips may be merged with other audio-only clips; a video clip is not a requirement for a merged clip. Only one clip containing video may be used. | |
