How do I use a TWO-BEEP ?

Abbey Normal · 28th December 2005

I'm scoring my first feature length film right now and i'm almost ready to mix. I have to deliver my mixes soon.I was told by the sound editor to include a two beep. I'm working with PT-LE(no dv toolkit). Can I do this using samples instead of frames, if so where do I put them?.........I've been scoring to a quiktime movie......Any info would be a help-thanx-

i responded in your other thread about this, but let me explain it better.

No you don't need the DV toolkit. Just make a very short 1k tone with a signal generator, and record it onto a track...very short meaning less than a half second. Then copy that one, so now you have two very short beeps. These should be exactly one second apart, and one second after the last beep is where the video should start.

so it will start like this...

BEEP...one second...BEEP...one second...start of video.

The two beep is just to give the editor a reference to sync your audio
