Sync Pro Tools audio file into FCP

Here's a quick description of what we will be doing. We are going to be editing all of the video for an event, and hiring an audio company to do the 5.1 for it. They then will send us a final mix of the 5.1, and we need to put this with our video. It sounds like they will be sending us OMF files. From what I can tell, FCP will not import these OMFs. How do we sync the audio to the video for the final DVD?

I usually give my Audio Guy a 2-pop (one frame tone hit) at the 2 second before picture mark..just like you see with film leader. So at 59:58:00 I have the one frame pop. I usually include an 8 second visual countdown at the head for reference.
Same with the end...two seconds after picture a 2 pop...nad flashing the number 2 one more time....visual reference.

  • FCE to FCP? Can I transfer an unfinished FCE file into FCP?

    Hi all,
    I would like to know if i can transfer a FCE file into FCP and continue editing from there?
    I started my first project in FCE, after many months of learning the basics the hard way.
    Having now read about the features of FCP, I am considering upgrading as I am led to believe that a lot of issues that are consuming my time editing, (e.g. eliminating unwanted audio ticks, image stabilisation etc.) are far easier/quicker in FCP.
    I realise that you can not make something out of what you don't have, but FCE just doesn't cut it when you start off with less than perfect material and are looking to smooth things out in general.
    So if i buy FCP can i finsh my project?
    Will my macbook pro handle it for now?
    2.4Ghz Intel Core Duo Processor,
    2GB 1067 Mhz DDR3 Memory,
    Thanks for any information.

    You can open FCE projects in Final Cut Pro.
    Work on a copy of your project file -there's no going back.
    Your MacBook Pro will handle Final Cut Studio fine.

  • How to import premier xml file into FCP X?

    Hi There,
    Premier has an export to "Final Cut Pro XML" option but how do you import these files into FCP X?
    If I navigate from within FCP X, the file is greyed out and if I right click from the finder and open in FCP X I see the error:
    The document “V1-0008_M07-1538.mov.xml” could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files in the “XML text” format.
    I'm using FCP 10.1.1 and Premiere Pro CC 7.2.1
    Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    Looks like this is the only option: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/7tox-for-final-cut-pro/id496926258?ls=1&mt=12

  • Importation of VOB files into FCP

    I have been importing .VOB file into FCP on a Mac Pro 8 core without any problems. Last week I bought a MacBookPro 3.06 Core 2 Duo and I reinstalled the OS and used system migration to import the programs from my Mac Pro.
    The MacBookPro will NOT open import the VOB file into FCP. Apple support said that VOB files are not supported. They suggested the power difference between the two computers allowed import in one and not the other. This does not make sense to me.
    Any thought from the experts?

    I've never known any version of FCP to work with VOB files natively or otherwise. Most people use MPEG Streamclip to convert to the format that will match their FCP Sequence settings.

  • Importing QT files into FCP

    Hi there I'm a FCP newbie,
    I 'm trying to import QT files into FCP, I extracted two files off a DVD using handbrake tp MP4 format and then opened them with Quicktime Pro and compressed them as a QT.mov. One of the movies imported successfully into FCP the other did'nt, and the error message I file recognized (0) access denied 1 unknown. Note I have used exactly the same compression settings for both files, any help would be appreciated.

    MP4 is a delivery codec. To make things easier, use MPEG Streamclip to do the DVD extraction. That will extract the video directly into a Quicktime movie file which FCP can edit natively.

  • Can i convert AIFF audio file into an MP3 file please?

    Can i convert AIFF audio file into an MP3 file please? I will be doing this on an imac 2008 model. thank you for help!

    Since this is the Logic forum and you may be working in Logic, you dont even need iTunes. To convert Aiff to MP3:
    1 - Go to the Bin>Audio Files
    2 - Select the Audio File you want to convert ( and not a region or edit of it)
    3 - Go to Audio File next to the Link icon ( Audio - Edit - View ) and down the menu to Copy/Convert.. gives lots of options

  • Adobe Bridge CC 'Tools Load Files Into Photoshop Layers' missing from menu.

    Hi,
    After updated to bridge CC the 'Tools > Load Files Into Photoshop Layers' has simply disappeared from the menu! Is there a plug in that I'm missing or is this something similar to how the Output module works, where you have to install the files manually?
    Thank You

    I uninstalled all Adobe products -> reboot -> reinstall; which didn't work.
    So I had to uninstall all Adobe products again, then use the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner, reboot & reinstall everything again; then it finally worked.
    This seems to be a regular thing since the introduction of Adobe CC, almost every new update or new versions breaks functionality & requires a complete uninstall -> reinstall process.

  • Assistance needed in trying to import MP3 audio file into Slide Show

    I get the following message when trying to import an MP3 audio file into a slideshow in Organizer 9 "The selected file can not be played because your system does not have the required compressor/decompressor(codec) installed. I am pulling the file from my Itunes folder and I have not had problems with any other file I have downloaded from itunes and changed to an MP3 format.  Does anyone have any ideas?  I really want to use this song in a slideshow for my parents 50th Anniversary.

    Best GUESS is that DRM is getting in the way of the file being used outside of iTunes (DRM = Digital Rights Mgmt = Copy Protection)

  • Possibility to execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP?

    Good day.
    Presently, a company uses Acrobat Pro to manually combine files such as *.pdf, *.jpg, *.doc, which have been downloaded from SAP's Document Management System, into one pdf file. I would like to know if it is possible to automatically execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP (ECC 6.0) application system. I'm wondering if this could be achieved from a program via OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) or RFC (remote function call).
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts and inputs.

    Yes, you can combine PDF files via IAC/COM methods.

  • Not able to import .motn files into FCP

    For some reason I'm not able to import .motn files into FCP. While in FCP, I use "send to motion" and uncheck the embed box. After motion opens and I add my motion content, I get the following error when trying to import the .motn file back into FCP "File Error: 1 files(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown". What is strange is that I'm able to create another test FCP project with different media, and everything works fine. All tests and media are done on the same drive.
    I'm using the latest updates of everything FCP 5.0.4 and motion 2.0.1
    Any ideas anybody?

  • HT201066 How can I split a long recording audio file into multiple audio files?

    Hi,
    How can I split a long recording audio file into multiple audio files?
    With Windows I was using Nero software, which is not available for Mac. Is there any similar app for free for Mac?
    Thanks!

    Hello ingiorgio
    You can import the track into GarageBand and then split the tracks there. Once that it is done you can highlight the ruler section and then share the song to iTunes to get them separated out.

  • Segment audio file into chapters

    I hope this will make sense - my best chance of getting the help I need is to describe what I'm trying to do:
    I work with a high school marching band. I've recorded the band playing the music we'll be performing in our show. I plan to load the recording onto an iPod and play the music over speakers  while my students learn their marching drill to the song.  What I need to be able to do is  segment the recording into a bunch of attached "chapters," so I can either start the recording at the beginning and play straight through, OR  easily start at specific spots in the music (like a chapter in a book).
    I'd appreciate any suggestions the community may have about how to accomplish what I envision.
    TIA

  • Call external audio file into timeline

    I'm creating training programs that will be translated into
    many languages. I create the text in external XML files, and then I
    use dynamic text frames to call in the text. The translators need
    only translate the XML Files and Flash is automatically updated.
    I would like to find a way where I can keep the audio files
    external to Flash, and have Flash call them. This way, once the
    translators have re-narrated the files in each language, I won't
    have to open each Flash movie and manually import the audio files.
    Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks!

    When you import the MOV file, Audition will split it into a video stream and an associated audio file.  You can drag the audio file into a session without the video stream.
