Re: [Avid-L2] Question about Autosync and double system sound...

You can batch increment timecode to all your audio clips. Then when you
autosync, they'll be right.

Select all the audio clips in the bin, then right-click and choose Modify...
In the drop down menu, choose Increment Timecode
In the field, choose Start TC, and enter 2

It'll give you the usual spiel about how dangerous it is to modify source
clip timecode, but it'll then move the start TC 2 frames ahead for all the
clips in one shot. Resync and you're good to go...
