What is in-Avid syncing?
- Picture and sound are imported into Avid as separate clips and synchronized within Avid to create a subclip for editing
What is syncing outside of Avid?
- Picture and sound are imported into another application (ColorFront or DaVinci Resolve) where they are synchronized and then a combined clip of the sound and picture is exported (with metadata) for Avid.
Advantages of in-Avid syncing
- Original source length relationships are maintained.
- Picture and sound outside of the synced clip are available within Avid.
- Only one copy of audio media is needed.
- Group clips consisting of starting and stopping cameras can span original sound recording length.
- Slip-by-perf function is available.
- Metadata tied to original source lengths
- If picture colour changes necessary, it’s simpler to swap out picture-only
