I did my regular log and digitize into the SD NTSC/23.976p project. I imported my 29.97/BWF audio files. I marked them up and synced. Then using those subclips I cut a short sequence together. I put that sequence in it's own bin.
I then quit out of MC and took the SD media off-line. I then launched MC and opened a HD 1080/23.976 project. Opened that bin with the sequence in it. Selected and modified the format of the sequence to 1080/23.976. I then chose Show Reference Clips for the bin view. I chose the master clips and Batch Captured. I then Batch Imported the audio master clips. Result was the subclips and sequence are now on-line in HD, all in sync and frame accurate to the SD cut.
I was told it would not be this easy. What am I doing wrong? I know it probably sounds asinine for me to say that, but really, what am I missing? What is going to go wrong with this method? How am I about to totally screw myself by doing this?
Thank you,
Jay

For the Video you can take a sequence cut in ntsc 23.976 and convert it to HD 23.976 and this will modify the souce code to 24 frame code the downconverts were made from. Then decompose the sequence and recapture from the masters to dnx 36. The issues of 30 fps based wave file imports from a Deva are unknown and very scary to me. Mommy make all these scary time code monsters go away!!!! If you need all the raw material that's a reason I could see to go back to you original capture bins and modify those. Please keep us informed on what seems to work Jay.

If you import those into a 23.976/24 project, the timecode will be recalculated to a 24 frame source, but the original 30fps will be lost. If 30fps is the original rate, you are better positioned and halfway there. Keep your original BWF bins and import, make sure you duplicate START into SoundTC. The SoundTC continues to count as 30 even in a 23.976/24HD project, but this is how you will maintain the original TC and lists for later. Using The 30fps timecode in the START from a "project tab change" continues to count as 30, but with no consideration for pulldown - so EDL's will be off if START is used.

I have never tried the relink at the end to clips that are both tape based (picture) and import (BWF) so you may be entering new territory there... I remember this being done on "Gone Baby Gone" and it was painful.
