Setting the Reader for Audio Scanning

Once your film is laced, go to DaVinci Resolve's film scanner panel and set the 'use film' and
'audio type' settings in the reader accessory pane.
These settings let you set which function you want your reader to perform, for example setting
the reader to scan KeyKode information, or to different audio types, for example optical or
magnetic audio.
The audio and KeyKode reader pane in DaVinci Resolve's film scanner panel
lets you change the 'use film' option between KeyKode and audio scanning
TIP The available options will differ depending on the type of film you have
loaded. For example, magnetic audio is available when 16mm is set as the film
type in DaVinci Resolve's film scanner panel.
Use Film
Use these settings to determine the reader's KeyKode or audio reading functions. For
information on reading KeyKode data, refer to the next section titled, 'Reading KeyKode'.
The settings for the audio reader include:
Optical Audio: Choose this setting when you want to scan audio from an optical audio
‚
track.
You can tell if the audio track is optical by inspecting the film. If you're scanning 35mm
or 16mm film and see a continuous waveform or a long, tightly packed series of stripes
down one side, your print has an optical soundtrack.
Optical Audio Narrow Track:
‚
variables inherent in printing will occasionally mean that your film's optical soundtrack
is smaller than the area scanned by your Audio and KeyKode Reader. This can result
in the audio reader scanning perforations or image data on either side of the sound
track, which causes interference in the audio. In this event, adjusting the reader's
tracking knob can help improve the audio, but if that is unsuccessful and the audio
track is problematic, then you can select 'optical audio narrow track' from the 'use film'
menu. This will reduce the area your reader scans by about twenty percent, limiting the
unwanted areas around the optical track and improving the quality of the audio scan.
TIP For more information about the tracking feature on the audio reader,
refer to the 'tracking' information later in this section.
