The Avid project would be provided to the finishing house for them to do whatever online edits that they need to. From reading yours and other posts and threads, I imagine this would entail importing a Vegas EDL into Avid Xpress Pro. So my plan has been to use Vegas for the lion's share fo the work and "bring the project into Xpress Pro" for my final offline edits and fixing any edits that didn't come over well (or at all).
TRANSFER PLUGINS TO AVID OFFLINE EDITOR PRO
While I'm new to both Xpress Pro and Vegas (got the VASST DVD's 1-7), I need to decide which will be my primary editing platform. And have contacted a film out company, DVFilm, about doing a film test. (I know I will be submitting it to festivals.)Īlong this line, I have decided to record in 24-bit sound with good equipment. I am trying to make sure that my workflow will work well if the documentary actually gets theatrically released &/or broadcasted. I am new to this world, but have come up with an idea for a documentary that has generated interest (how long that will last.?). When I tell people I'm using Vegas, I'm told something along the lines of "Okay, but you know that all the big post houses use Avid, so be sure your work opens up well in Avid."Ī- An EDL from Vegas should work in Avid or other online editing apps.ī- Does your project require online editing? Are you delivering for broadcast? **I don't have much Avid experience so this is just my guess/extrapolation of what I know. so you're almost re-creating them anyways. The effects coming in were probably very rough anyways, and will be tweaked.
You might save a small amount of time by doing that. If the Avids are different versions, there may be some snags? If offlining and onlining on an Avid (using Symphony for the online), most of your effects should carry over(?). Vegas should be able to generate a compatible EDL via *scripting*, though this is not officially supported anymore.
You make paper/electronic notes as to what effects should be re-created in the online edit, and send a copy of your offline edit as a reference. If you online in a non-Avid system, you would use an EDL to transfer your project. They do not make sense for industrial, corporate work. Those online suites are mainly used for commercials and broadcast (e.g. More expensive suites might go in the $1,000/hour range. Online editing generally runs from a few hundred to several hundred dollars per hour. Flame, Inferno (commercials), Quantel iQ, Mistika, Final Cut Pro, etc. For online editing, Avid (Symphony and Nitris) is not the only NLE used for that purpose. Online editing facilities can also handle the technical aspects of creating a broadcast master. Sort of like After Effects, but much faster (for FCP onlines, you'd actually pair it up with AE or a similar app). Online systems may also be good at creating motion graphics, color correction, and some special effects / compositing tasks. You might go to an online system so that you can capture your material at high quality (ideally uncompressed). If you are using two different NLEs, it is usually because you do your offline edit on one system and your online edit on another system. You do it slightly different, but I figured it out.I'm looking for the best way to present an essentially finished Vegas project for further work in Avid.Ĭould you provide more details as to what you're trying to do?
TRANSFER PLUGINS TO AVID OFFLINE EDITOR HOW TO
I remember how to do this during me working on it. Once this is all done, you can make the temp track inactive(handy if you might want to go back and make a change) or delete it(and Melodyne too). You can also view playlists and see your original audio, in case you ever need it again(like to show how the tuning improved it ). Remember to leave the temporary track's fader to -0 and your new audio will be at the exact same level(unless you use the GAIN function on any blobs ). When you get done, push play and your tuned audio is on the correct track, all tuned and committed, and all thru whatever other plugins and sends you already had going. Change the original track's input to the bus you selected, put the original track in Record and let 'er rip. On the original track, create a new playlist(I will name it "Vocal Tnd" if its a vocal). Drag the Melodyne plugin from the original track to the new track and change the new track's output to an open bus. Once the track is all tuned, I add an empty track beside the original(this can be AUDIO or AUX, doesn't matter).
