Join Ashley Kennedy for an in-depth discussion in this video Overlapping dialogue in FCP X, part of Video Post Tips Weekly.
- So we just learned how to set up bi-directional trims…to overlap dialogue in Premiere Pro,…and we're going to set up the same…type of edit here in Final Cut Pro X,…but because of the nature of how Final Cut works,…things behave pretty differently,…and to be honest, it's actually quite a bit simpler.…So let's take a look.…Now I have the same passage of dialogue…here in Final Cut, and I'll play it for you…so you can see where we're at.…- So did you hear?…- I'm not sure.…- It's official, I got the news!…- Oh, Joe, wow!…- So I know, I just wanted you to be…one of the first to know.…
- I'm so glad that you did.…So when do you go?…- All right, so again, I want Susan…to come in sooner than she does.…She's really excited, she's anticipating his response,…so as soon as she sees his face, she starts to react.…So we want the last part of his audio…to co-exist with the first part of her audio.…So I need to detach my audio.…All right, no tracks in Final Cut,…so we just need to detach the audio…and move it over.…I'm going to right click and choose Detach Audio.…
