Audio out of sync - Finalcut 7, Canon 7D, Marantz PMD 670
Having some serious audio slip (out of sync) issues - looks like some people already have this using various equipment (h4 zoom, Tascam, Olympus etc):
Shot an interview with Canon 7D
Recorded audio on a Marantz PMD 671 and converted to 48Khz (several times in Compressor, QuickTime Pro 7, Bigasoft Audio Converter):
MacPro (2008) - running 10.6.8
Finalcut pro 7.0.3
When I import both the video and the audio from the two sources they are fine at the start of the audio sync mark, but slip badly after a few minutes.
Have exported the audio in different AIFF ways 44Khz, 48Khz, 16 bit 32 bit, little endian etc, but it fails to sync up.
Have had a look at the forums on Creative Cow, but this just says to adjust the speed settings of the audio to 99.89%. This is almost fine.
Another thing I found is when I scrub through the audio track from the camera, the waveform syncs up with audio I listen to it, eg I see a spike and corresponds to a loud pop sound through my headphones
However...
When I scrub through the audio from the Marantz, the waveform does not seem to reflect what I hear, eg I see a quiet passage but can clearly hear audio at level 10dB.
I've restarted, updated, everything.
