Audio Problems exporting from final cut pro 7Posted by Matthewd5
Hello
I'm taking over a project that was created in fcp7 but I'm using Adobe premiere pro cs6 The problem we are running into is the audio is coming through as being locked The audio appears to be unlocked in fcp, the only fix we've found is to select all the audio and select the menu item to ungroup stereo pairs... That works, except the audio comes through as mono tracks but their stereo, meaning the left channel track has no right channel etc. What are we missing? I'm pretty sure there is some simple step we are missing I've never used final cut pro before... I'd be grateful for any suggestions! Matthew
And I've never used PPpro before, but that day is coming, so this is of interest. You should have the ability after ungrouping to pan A1 to left and A2 to right to recreate the stereo pair as it left FCP, yes?
That's a lot of extra work and will get old fast, so somebody who's encountered this before should drop in. Check to see if there's a default behavior you can specify for incoming audio, to treat it as either double mono or stereo pair, I believe that setting exists in PPro Prefs. - Loren Today's FCP 7 keytip: Advance to next/previous keyframes in a clip with Shift/Option-K !

Thanks for the reply, is there perhaps a way in bulk to pan tracks?
I know premiere pro pretty well and I haven't found anything to tell it how to treat incoming XML imports, but I'll look around more... It's making the oddest audio tracks I've seen, it's basically a mono track but it's preordained to be a left or right channel and none of the usual controls have any effect. Matthew
Interesting update...
Installed update to premiere pro cs6 6.02 In the notes it said to fix XML problems so I started a new project and reimported my fcp XML and now the audio doesn't play at all! If i import the same clips directly they play fine I filled out a bug report at adobe's site Matthew
Arghs. I hate the way PPro works with audio. Most of the time when I get stereo wave files, they aren't stereo, but 2 tracks and usually split mic
-ed. So my PPro setting is to import everything as mono tracks. I'm not sure if that will flag clips in XML as mono, but it may do something different. www.strypesinpost.com

Basically it was all shot with one mic going to both left and right inputs with slightly different levels set for the input gain Matthew
