It is critical that the value in the Sound Timecode field in the Detail View window
correspond to the first video frame of the clip. This is typically the case when you
import the sound information from a telecine log. You can enter or verify this using the
Cinema Tools Clip window. See the Cinema Tools User Manual for more information.

Once you have finished editing and have added the sound timecode and reel number
information to the database, you are ready to export the audio EDL.

To export an audio EDL:

1

In the Final Cut Pro Timeline or Browser, select the sequence from which you want to
export an audio EDL.

2

Choose File > Export > Cinema Tools Audio EDL.

Cinema Tools opens and its Export Audio EDL dialog appears.

3

Configure the settings in the Export Audio EDL dialog, then click OK. See the
Cinema Tools User Manual for information about the settings.

4

In the dialog that now appears, select the Cinema Tools database file to use, then
click Choose.
