i will suggest you to check how do you import the audio and your video to fcp - if the tc is not stamped correctly ( 29.97 , drop non drop , 30 etc ) or there is no tc at all ,you may get drift as actually you will have 2 different frame rates - thats the USA /NTSC PROBLEM , DOESN'T exist in Pal world , as everything imported in 25 - so check your file import before you accuse the fcp or camera .![]()
I'm in a PAL land here.
My dear, i have recorded on camera films which where in Trybeca, Cannes and Berline festival s, and i do own a bit more audio eqip then regular person , incl Devas , 788s or what ever , SO IN REAL LIFE ,not on paper - you will never know what device the movie was recorded with .
by the way ,my first on video feature for theatrical relies was recorded with Sony BVW d-600 betacam with bvw 35 recorder attached to , so i will get 6 tracks - since then , the cameras became just better![]()
I'm not doubting your experience in the matter and I certainly welcome all opinions here: For me is what forums are all about. To put different knowledge on the table and learn with others experiences. I only stated what my experience in the field says. Not only mine nut my sound director too, who's one of the most renown sound directors here.
I think trying to validate what is right or wrong with how people work is really a matter of taste. I've worked in enough situations that I've recorded audio to camera, recorded to external recorder, used Pluraleyes, synced by hand, used clap, and used a whole system that was synced by TC. ALL of these methods when looked at from a pro/con viewpoint depend on A LOT of variables.
Completely agree
All that said, if anyone sees anything about TC over HDMI, please, make sure to bring it back here. I personally know a lot of people that would like to use it...(yet).
