Auto-sync for cameras and audio

The whole shoot at once

Drop a timeline from Resolve, Premiere, or Final Cut. WaveXML lines the Zoom / Sound Devices tracks up to the picture, and it also syncs the camera footage. Then you export XML and keep cutting in your NLE. The beta is the full app — free, with no clip or feature limits.

WaveXML timeline with cameras lined up to a recorder track

How it works

The NLE writes XML. WaveXML does the middle. You import XML back.

01

Drop XML

FCP7 from Resolve or Premiere. OTIO from Resolve. FCPXML from Final Cut.

02

Synchronize

Match recorder tracks to the cameras, and sync the footage

03

Export XML

Open the result in the same NLE. Then nest the multicam.

Resolve, Premiere, or Final Cut — File → Export XML, then import the file WaveXML writes. From Resolve, export OTIO instead to keep stereo audio.

Before you export

One camera per video track. Mix on its own audio track. Don’t nest the multicam yet.

Picture

One camera per video track. Camera mics stay on — even quiet room tone is enough to match.

Recorder

Dual-system audio (Zoom, MixPre, 633, whatever wrote the WAV) on its own audio track. Not mixed under the cameras.

Export XML

File → Export XML from Resolve, Premiere, or Final Cut. Drop that file in WaveXML. Press Synchronize.

Formats

Whatever your NLE already writes.

In

  • FCPXML (.fcpxml) — Final Cut Pro
  • FCP7 XML (.xml) — Premiere Pro
  • FCP7 XML (.xml) — DaVinci Resolve
  • OTIO (.otio) — DaVinci Resolve
  • XMEML (.xml) — Avid, FCP 7

Out

  • FCPXML — Final Cut Pro
  • FCP7 XML — Premiere Pro
  • FCP7 XML — DaVinci Resolve
  • OTIO — DaVinci Resolve
  • FCP7 XML — Avid

Avid via FCP7 / XMEML is supported as a round-trip. Syncaila is the usual paid option if you need AAF.

Built for dual-system, not a generic multicam toy

Recorder on the mix. Cameras on picture. Then you nest.

Wedding / event

Three cameras, a Zoom on the mix, a long ceremony. Native Resolve/Premiere sync often drops the quiet angles. WaveXML is the dedicated pass before you nest.

Interview / doc

Boom + lavs on a MixPre, two ISOs on picture. Keep camera scratch. Mute it after the XML comes back.

You already export XML

If you used PluralEyes as a round-trip, this is the same shape: timeline out, sync, timeline in. No plugin. No upload.
