How do I sync multiple audio clips to one video clip?

I have video (with stereo audio from a camera mic), and for each take, there are also four additional mono audio tracks that line up with it. It was footage shot outdoors in the city, so I guess the filmmakers just wanted to have as many options for sound mixing as possible given how much background noise there would be. I have tried selecting the video clip and the four audio clips at once and selecting "synchronize clips," but it doesn't work. It spits out a synchronized clip that seems to have converted two of the mono tracks into one stereo track... and then disregarded the remaining two mono tracks. It's a mess. It's likely someone else will fine tune the audio once I'm done cutting the video together... but I'd like to get all the audio tracks properly synced from the start. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Do you mean manual syncing? I've been reading this thread about workaround, which aren't working for me: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/344/21236
But the question they are asking is the same one I am asking. Isn't this a typical situation, having multiple mics for one camera? For example, if someone filmed a concert with one camera but used both the camera audio, and ambient mic, and a mix from the board, then that would be 3 audio tracks with 1 video track. I'm in a similar situation, and I'm finding it hard to believe that FCPX isn't equipped to edit this way. There must be some way to get one video clip (with reference audio) to sync with four audio tracks.

  • How do you link two audio clips to one video clip?

    Hi guys,
    I want to think multiple audio clips to one video clip and aint know how to do it! I found this page on Adobe knowledge base:-
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/3.0/help.html?content=WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b 1038518aef7-7f40.html
    It says you can do it but I don't think it explains how? Can anyone provide me with the simple steps required to link two audio clips to one video clip? Many thanks.

  • How to combine video clips into one video clip using FCPX

    I typed this into the search engine but could not come up with anything. How do you combine Video clips into one Video clip using FCPX? Thanks in advance.
    Gar

    The simple answer is to put the clips together in a project in the desired order and export (oops, the new word is share [YUK!]) a master file.
    But maybe you should say a little more about the clips to determine whether the answer I've given is relevant to yor situation.

  • Help using multiple audio channels for one video

    Hi,
    I have a video file with 3 audio files (stereo (.wav), 5.1 surround (.AC3), and commentary (.wav).
    I have placed these on the time line of the video track, but now I need to have buttons to target each of them from a menu. However, when is choose a buttons target, is doesn't give me the option of which audio channel to play (A1/A2/A3 etc).
    Is this possible with just one track, or do I need 3 (each with a different audio file as A1)?
    Hope you can help! cheers.
    Tim

    There is a tutorial on setting this up here;

    BTW I would very strongly suggest to compress your WAV files to stereo AC3 files. It will reduce your overall bandwidth, and you will have a disc that will less problems in playing.

  • How do I merge multiple audio clips to one?

    Hey Everyone,
    After syncing multiple clips in PE I import them into Premiere CS6 and they are all layered with their own audio tracks (though the video clips are synced with only one audio track). This causes inconsistent audio levels. How do I join all these clips which originally derived from one audio recorder to merge as one? If there is a step by step process please advise. Thanks in advance, you guys are beyond awesome.
    Mike Diaz

    If all audio is from a single audio source (with consistent levels0 ..the only reason you would be getting different audio levels on different audio tracks is if the Mixer has different settings....or the audio has been changed at clip level.
    Its usually desireable to have audio clips on different tracks.
    Can you not just drag the audio clips to a single audio track...if that's what you really need?
    Alternatively a mixdown...but that requires sorting the levels anyway.  ( Mixer on automation or at clip level.)

  • How do I sync multiple cameras in FCPX

    I have been using pluraleyes in FCP7 to sync multiple cameras to a master sound clip.  How can I do this in FCPX?

    Rita, Dazaik is using FCP X not FCP7, Having PluralEyes work in FCP X would be a dream come true
    Dazaik, unfortunately there are some major issues with Syncronize Clips in FCP X. Please read my in-depth post here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3277834 if there is something you don't understand, let me know and I'll be more than happy to help.

    If it's an Audiobook, then it's probably in the Audiobook section of your iPhone. Have you set your iTunes to Sync Audiobooks with your iPhone?
    Alternatively, if the Audiobook was imported into your iTunes Library as as Music, then it's going to be in the Music section of your iPhone. If so, then it will be in the Music section of your iTunes Library. To move it to the Audiobooks section, select it in the Library and choose File/Get Info/Options>Media Kind where you can change it.
    You can change it to a Podcast, but since something is only a Podcast if it is delivered to your iTunes as a Podcast download (which is a process for delivering files without you having to go and find them), then your audiobook is not a Podcast and you may forget (in the future) how you obtained the book in the first place

  • How do I sync multiple picture folders to my iPod ?

    How do I sync multiple picture folders to my iPod touch ? I don't want to create another folder and then copy the desired folders to be synced, into this main folder. All of my pictures are about the size of 5-10 MB. Copying them would mean loss of additional space.

    You can only point iTunes at one folder for syncing to the iPod. You can however selectively choose which subfolders of the main folder are included. I use a Photos folder inside iTunes\iTunes Media and move the folders that I want on my device into that, but the parent folder could be anywhere that suits you.

  • How do I sync multiple iPones on the same iMac

    How do I sync multiple iPones on the same iMac

    Use another account where?  Let's say phone A is being synced to Mac A, and now you want to add phones B and C to Mac A, then they will all be syncing using the same account, the one used on Mac A.  Phones B and C can share apps and songs currently on Mac A's iTunes, but they will lose any apps, etc. that were previously put on them from other macs that use different accounts.  That's the way it works. If you want to keep the apps on B and C, then keep syncing them to their original macs.
