Thank you very much! During filming 2 people had a microphone but only 1 was speaking, so the audio volume of this person was too low (even when I had set the volume to 12.0dB). By selecting Expand Audio Components I was able to mute the audio of the "silent person" and the volume of the speaking person was back to what it should be. For a moment I thought the audio I recorded on my iPhone 15 Pro had become worthless and I had to start fiddling with the audio recorded directly on the Wireless Pro. You saved me a lot of work! ;-)
Thanks for sharing this video. I not only learned the audio portion, but that the range tool will simplify my editing to where I don't have to create each point for adjusting audio I can just use the range tool! :)
Thank you for the clear and precise instructions on how to separate the audio channels from my Rode Wireless Go 11 mics. Very helpful and easy to understand.
Thank you so much! I was wondering why I couldn't denoise the audio, expanding it into two tracks fixed this. Very helpful, especially with audio from the Rode Wireless Go II.
Thanks for covering this! Had forgotten the "Expand Audio Components" bit and was thinking I need to duplicate the clip twice and stack them or something goofy
This has been super helpful. Thank you. In your example you had the other mic in the other room, so that the two mics couldn't "hear' each other. But, I have an issue when I use two wireless mics on two people standing next to each other and the sound from one mic crosses over into the other person's microphone. Later, when played back (as two tracks) it sounds echoey. Do you have any tips on how to deal with this during filming or in editing?
Glad I could help. The situation you describe is a trickier one. I think you’d need to do some post production EQ to try and remove the bleed-over from the other mic.
Bro, thank you for this! I wouldn't have thought it would be so hard to find the answer. Was befuddled as to why my split track recording of two mics, was only importing as one file, and how I could edit it.
@@mattliller it's certainly helpful. I've got a further question, though: when converting to dual mono, before any edits, the audio sounds a bit worse? It evens out each channel, which seems to lower the volume overall. I wish that I could edit the two channels without the tracks having to be evened out first. I have just read that there is always a 3 dB shift in volume between stereo and mono, so maybe that's all I'm hearing and that I just need to up the gain on the channels as desired?
@@lucanianman I don’t pretend to be an audio expert, and I’ve actually never heard there’s a difference in dB between mono and stereo. As a concept, it makes sense that what you’re hearing before converting to dual mono is different, since multiple things were layered in a way that were not used to hearing. For all things pro-sumer audio, I like to follow Tom Buck and Curtis Judd on TH-cam. They might have the exact technical answer here.
@@mattliller thanks man, no problem. I saw some comments in a Larry Jordan video about the dB difference between mono and stereo. And also some affirmation that when you convert, nothing of value is lost. So I think it's something I don't need to be worried about
This is an awesome video. Thank you. Saved to my GoPro/FCPX video list. I’m curious, does this work if using four Rode Microphones? Would I get four audio files?
Thanks for the kind words. If I’m understanding your question correctly, you would get 4 audio files (1 file per microphone), and each file would have the 2 channels (left and right). You could do this same process to use the particular channel you want for any portion of the video.
@@mattliller you know what, I double-checked my Rode app and it showed Split audio, but think it's because I recorded in the iPhone camera app instead of the DJI app...even though Rode is separate from DJI...still very unsure.
I've just started trying to use safety tracks with different mic systems but for some reason whenever I pull the audio files into Final Cut, it doesn't go in as stereo or dual mono (not under options), just Mono! So I can't separate the tracks... newbie question but if you or anyone could help that'd be greatly appreciated Btw I know this video is for something a little different but I think it's sort of related to it as I can't seem to import stereo/dual mono audio channels
@@mattliller Actually not yet lol but, I think my problem was I was under the impression that on-board recordings would use safety track to allow me to split the channels to dual mono, but it seems that on-board recordings are only mono (no safety track. Only seems to work through the receiver). Also I didn't change the input on my laptop to the USB mic so it was recording through the wrong microphone and was resulting in mono recordings as well. lol!
This video is EXACTLY what I was looking for.
So glad you found it useful!

SUPERB BROOO
Just got my Rode 2 today.. This was exactly what I was looking for. You got a subscribe for this one !! Thanks so much !!
So glad you found it helpful!

Absolutely! It’s not exactly an intuitive process.
That's what I've been missing for my edits since Final Cut Pro X, wont let you "Voice Isolation" Dual Mono by it self.

@@mattliller awesome. Thank you so much.
Legend, this was super helpful!
Happy to help! I literally made this because I couldn’t find it anywhere else.
I needed this. Amazing.
So happy to help
well done, well explained, thanks a lot!!
Thank you so much men! That was really helpful and on point. Keep it up
Thanks for the kind words!
Thanks this was helpful!
Glad you got value! I couldn’t find this simple info anywhere.
thank you! I have been trying to figure this out for the longest time lol.
So happy I could help!
Thank you so much this was very helpful!!!
Glad I could help!
My Final Cut Pro does not show option for Dual Mono? I only have Mono (I am using Rode Wireless Go II)?
I don’t think the option is there unless your audio is on separate channels to begin with. Are you sure you recorded in that format?
@@mattliller you know what, I double-checked my Rode app and it showed Split audio, but think it's because I recorded in the iPhone camera app instead of the DJI app...even though Rode is separate from DJI...still very unsure.
Very good, thanks

Btw I know this video is for something a little different but I think it's sort of related to it as I can't seem to import stereo/dual mono audio channels
That’s a great question, and I’ll run a few tests to see what I find. Have you tried this with the Wireless Go II specifically?

Thank you so much! I have subscribed :)
Thanks for the support!
@@mattliller You are very welcome :) It is a pleasure. There should be much more subscribers on your channel. I hope and pray that there will be more!
Thankyou bro
Thanks man
My pleasure!
I've literally been looking for a video like this for about an hour, but I only use Premiere. *cries in Premiere*
That’s the exact reason I made the video! Come to the FCPX side!
