We're using Reflectmedia and a Ultimatte DV. Since the ultimatte DV only captures either S-Video and output Firewire, we have no audio. Therefore, when the receiver of the wireless mic is connected to Digidesign M Box 2, I can hear it on the speaker. However, I can’t seem to log and capture the audio in on Final Cut Pro HD. Is there a way to log and capture the audio using a wireless mic?
I setup the Capture setting to use the MBox2 instead of the internal audi, or DV Firewire.

FCP sees the DigiDesign interface in the capture setting. I think that DigiDesign limits the abliliy to record from FCP. However, if FCP is actually recongnizing the interface, why couldn't I use it to capture audio from usb (MBOX2)while video from another firewire source, Ultimatte DV.

The problem here is, I'm attempting to "Log and Capture" the Ultimatte DV (whick only processes video and not audio), through firewire while I capture audio through another source.

Ah this is bascially like using a digital intermediate for something shot on film and DAT tapes. You capture Video. You capture Audio. You sync. Its just kind of how post production has worked since umm sound came into play? At least in the cases where the two are recorded seperately (obviously in the age of digital video cameras you can record both to the same stock, but that is obviously not the situation at hand).

cheers.
 
Okay, I was able to fix it with the help of Maxplanar of the Apple Forum. He suggested setting at “uncontrollable Device and then Capture now. This was able to make the Mbox preset work.
Good times.
