I'm editing a feature and, while the Normalize filter is great, it doesn't export to OMF. So when I do an export for the "real" sound post guys my levels will all be wonky. Not a desirable thing.

Great design and articles. 'Folder with a date' script is especially useful. As for other useful scripts, I often have a folder containing many other folders each harbouring footage to be transcoded. I found a small script by Jeff Fischer called "Copy Folder Tree" which duplicates the folders (none of the files), allowing me to direct the compressed footage easily into an identical folder structure. Can be found here: http://mac.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Copy-folder-tree.shtml Look forward to more useful scripts! Hey, just discovered this blog and absolutely love it.

Nothing beats it if you have to batch normalize a shitload of clips. Works from bins too. :) Yeah, I always bind it on cmd-opt-n. Nothing beats it if you have to batch normalize a shitload of clips.

Although you can also access the gain filter in your Audio Filters bin. So if an entire reel was around 6db less than others, apply a +6db gain to all the clips and then you don't have to crank up the audio level rubberbands in the timeline. Btw, the level you normalize to is the max level it will bring your audio peaks too on that clip. So if you want your peaks at -6db or -12db, just enter it there. But keep in mind, if you have a pop or a loud sound in the middle of a quiet clip, it will normalize based on the loudest sound. Helpful for many.
