Export Audio EDL Dialog

Audio is often reedited at an audio postproduction facility, using high-quality capture
hardware and software and high-end processing tools. Depending on how you edit,
Final Cut Pro’s EDL output may not contain the reel number and timecode of the
original production sound tapes. This information is often contained in the telecine log
that you import into Cinema Tools, or it can be manually entered.

You generally open the Export Audio EDL dialog from within Final Cut Pro. You are also
able to open it from within Cinema Tools if necessary, although additional steps are
required, including the creation of a program file in the Film Lists dialog.

To open the Export Audio EDL dialog from within Final Cut Pro:

m

In Final Cut Pro, choose File > Export > Cinema Tools Audio EDL. (This command is
available only when the Final Cut Pro Timeline is active, or when you have selected a
sequence in the Browser.)

To open the Export Audio EDL dialog from within Cinema Tools:

1

In Cinema Tools, choose File > Export > Audio EDL from Program DB.

2

In the dialog that appears, select the program file to use, then click Open. The Export
Audio EDL dialog appears.

See “

Exporting an Audio EDL

” on page 161 for details on exporting audio EDLs.
