Include all your footage in your sequences
The starting point for any Quickture edit of a scene, interview, or episode is a sequence containing all the video and audio for the whole thing, with all footage synchronized.
Our recommendation is to include everything— the audio mixer adjusting the mic, the director explaining the blocking, etc… You can easily remove these portions during your Quickture edit and if you ever need to go back for clip pulls later in your edit, you know that this raw sequence contains everything relevant to the interview or scene.
In Quickture, a Raw Sequence is all the footage from an interview, scene or episode, synchronized or grouped together.
Here's an important note: Quickture requires you to include all the tracks associated with any source media in the Raw Sequence, instead of ungrouping a clip and deleting certain tracks. For example, if you imported a clip with multiple empty audio tracks, you should include those tracks in your Raw Sequence. If you don't want to hear a track, instead of deleting it, just mute it.
Mix Down the Audio
Quickture begins its process by exporting an MP3 of the scene or interview audio for transcription. Just like any output, more tracks means a longer export so you can speed up the initial transcription by muting any unnecessary tracks. Those tracks will still be cut during a Quickture edit— they just won't be output for transcript which can speed up the process.
