Retrieving orginal sound file names?

[ronin99]

Sunk original audio (file named by take) with video file.


Merged the clip and the audio file now takes on the video file name.


Edited the film.


Now the Post house, needs the original audio file names for all the audio files used in the edit.


Is there any way to get the audio used in the edit to revert back to its original name? Maybe there's some 3rd party program that can help with this?

For Final Cut Pro? Yes:

I've sent this link out to so many picture editors in the past few years, and it works!

Yes.. send an OMF, which would have the audio files and the EDL audio timeline. However, the latest FCP version that supported OMF was 7. I don't think FCP-x does AAF either... or at least w/o third-party conversion.

You made a copy of the original files, right? So you should already have them.
