Re: cantar mxf -> Avid -> protools
Neiher the cantar nor any other audio recorder can create MXF audio. The cantar records BWAVs that are packed into MXF-containers when imported into the AVID when working in Hidef-projects. FCP doesn´t use MXF as a storage-format it reads the media directly (unlike the avid).
PT plays MXF audio fine but gets extremely slow when working in large sessions (symptoms are are huge ram page-outs and extremely slow file search etc.. Not sure if this has been improved in PT8). It can be useful to covert the session to BWAVs to speed up PT once you opened the MXF/AAFs.
frank.
