Sound and FCP Capture

[Chris Messineo]

Whenever I capture my footage to FCP it saves 4 tracks of audio as well.

Two Questions:

1. Is there a way to just record 2 tracks of audio and not 4 on the HVX (also wouldn't that save a little space on the P2 cards)?

2. Is there a way to just capture 2 track of audio in FCP (without having to delete the tracks after they have been captured)?

Thanks,

Chris

1. The DVCPRO HD files will always record 4 channels. No way to disable.

2. If you mean in the Log and capture window, yes you can deselect 3+4. If you mean in P2 import no.
