Hi Tony, thanks for the comment. That may be the case that you've seen but having worked with editors around the world I have seen plenty of edits where the picture editor has edited location audio on audio track 5 and above. However, now that most NLE's are able to export EDLs containing more than 4 audio tracks this isn't so much of a concern. The main issue now is that editors are going above A24 which EdiLoad currently can't read.
There are many circumstances in which you'll want more than 4 tracks - many complex scenes would be a huge pain to cut with isos 4 tracks if your production mix isn't great.
This video was created 6 years ago for EdiLoad v3. EdiLoad v5 now has it's own assembly window that doesn't require the Pro Tools field recorder workflow and simplifies the whole process. See www.soundsinsync.com/blog/ediload-v5-assemble-wavs-for-any-daw for more information and a new demo video.
This video shows how to conform with the old v3. EdiLoad v5 has a whole new assembly window that simplifies this whole process. More info and demo video here: www.soundsinsync.com/blog/ediload-v5-assemble-wavs-for-any-daw
wow. well done
The standard is to edit the field recorder audio on tracks 1-4, the other tracks are temp and fx. No need to bother with the other EDLS.
