Anyone still using Loco/Titan? Need to do some re-assembly
Just about to start a feature and the video editor used that nasty two track mixdown coming from the location mixer and I need to re-assemble the timeline using the 24/48 multichannel audio. The problem is that he started each new sound reel with a new timecode hour (reel 1 is 01:00:00:00, reel 2 is 02:00:00:00, reel 13 is 13:00:00:00, etc). I would like to try out Assemblerator but from what I understand, I wouldn't be able to spot any audio that goes past 12:00:00:00 to its original timestamp due to the 12 hour limitation in Pro Tools. I know that I can just have a different session start time to allow for this but Assemblerator will want to paste the audio way back down in the 1 hour mark. Is there a way around this?
I have seen it said here in the DUC that some of you use Final Cut to do a re-conform. How exactly does that work? I have been given audio-only EDL's and I also have the location audio with metadata intact. If I can re-link the audio in FCP, will the resulting OMF have the other channels available once I get it into Pro Tools?
Does anyone here still use Titan/Loco? Their websites haven't been updated in years and I assume the same can be said for the software. They are quite expensive and I don't want to make a wrong move.
Any advice/tips you guys can give me would be most appreciated. Thanks so much.
