Limecraft provides extensive support for multi-channel audio and audio layout configuration. Assuming audio layouts have been defined, you can apply it on a clip. This article explains how to do so.
During Import or Backup using Limecraft Edge
Audio layouts can be imposed as part of the initial backup or import in Limecraft Edge prior to the actual ingest. The ‘Missing Metadata’ screen will contain a field for Audio Layout which will list all defined audio layouts on the production.
Within Limecraft Flow
When items are already ingested, you can apply an Audio Layout via “Edit audio layout” available on clips.
Upon selection, Limecraft will first ask you to select the appropriate audio layout.
Once an audio layout has been selected, you can add additional metadata per channel layout.
The dialog also contains a checkbox ‘Re-generate the player media when required’. When your production is set up for multi- track audio, checking this box ensures the player will show updated information and allows switching between the different channel layouts of the audio layout.
Click continue, and the audio layout information will be saved. If necessary, the player media will be regenerated as well, which might take a while.
