The Problem
Syncing by hand eats your first day.
Before a single creative decision, someone has to marry every clip to its audio. Sync does that whole day of work in one pass.
📣
Hunting for the clap
Scrubbing waveforms, hunting slates, nudging audio a frame at a time, for every single take. Multiply that by two cameras and a day of footage.
✓ Sync matches whole bins at once, frame-accurately
🚫
The old go-to tool is gone
PluralEyes was discontinued, and editors have been stitching together workarounds ever since. Waveform-only tools still guess wrong on quiet scratch audio.
✓ Three matching methods, cross-checked on every clip
🎞️
Multicam setup is its own job
Even with synced audio, someone still has to figure out which clips are angles of the same moment, stack them, and line them up on a shared clock.
✓ Angles are detected and stacked into scenes automatically
Features
Two bins in. A synced project out.
Sync isn't a clap detector. It's a full sync pipeline that lives inside Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve and hands you a project that's ready to edit.
Three-way matching
Timecode when you have it, dialogue matching when people talk, and waveform analysis always. Every clip is matched by whichever methods apply, and they check each other's work.
Frame-accurate lock
Every match is refined to the exact frame before anything touches your timeline. Lips line up, claps land, no one-frame slips.
Camera-native formats
R3D, BRAW, ARRIRAW, and anything else your editor plays. If it's in your project, Sync can match it. No transcoding first.
Multi-angle scenes
Cameras that covered the same moment are detected and stacked, V1, V2, V3, on a shared clock, with the clean audio underneath. Your multicam assembles itself.
Master timeline
Every synced sequence, laid end to end on one master timeline. The whole shoot on a single timeline, and any piece opens into its own sequence.
Every track kept
Your camera audio stays exactly as it was shot, and the synced recorder lands on its own track, top or bottom, your choice. Nothing is deleted or flattened.
An organized project
Sync files everything for you: synced sequences in one bin, matched and unmatched footage in their own bins, your originals untouched. You can see the state of the shoot at a glance.
Review, then commit
Confident matches are marked green and build automatically. Anything uncertain goes to a review queue where you can nudge, re-check, and approve. A doubtful guess never lands on your timeline unasked.
Premiere Pro & DaVinci Resolve
Sync runs natively in both, on Mac and Windows, matched to each app's look. Same workflow, your NLE of choice.
Trust at scale
Green means checked. Twice.
Batch tools live or die on trust. Sync earns it by showing its work on every single clip.

Auto · high confidence
Matches that agree, build
When independent methods land on the same answer, or a single match is beyond doubt, the clip is marked green and builds without you touching it. Drop 100 clips and 10 recordings, and trust the checkmarks.

Review · anything uncertain
Doubts go to you, not your timeline
A quiet scratch track, a clip that might not belong, methods that disagree: those go to the review queue with every method's answer shown. Nudge by a frame, re-check, approve, or leave it out. You decide.
Everything runs locally on your machine. Your footage and audio are never uploaded, and dialogue matching works without an internet connection.
How it works
Drop. Match. Build.
Three stages take you from two bins of raw media to a synced, organized project.
Stage 1 · Drop
Two bins. That's the setup.
Drag your camera bins into Video and your recorder files into Audio, straight from the project you already have open. Multiple cameras, multiple recorders, whole days of footage at once.
- Works from the bins already in your project
- Add as many camera and audio bins as you like
- B-roll without audio is fine, it's sorted out for you
- Nothing is moved, copied, or re-imported

Stage 2 · Match
Three checks on every clip.
Sync reads timecode where it exists, matches what was said with on-device dialogue analysis, and compares the audio itself, then cross-checks the answers. When they agree to the frame, that's a lock you can trust.
- Timecode, dialogue, and waveform, cross-checked
- Finds a take anywhere inside an hour-long recording
- Confident on lav-vs-camera-mic pairs that barely share a waveform
- Uncertain matches go to review, never straight to the timeline

High confidence · auto Stage 3 · Build
Scenes, a master, and tidy bins.
One click builds it all: a synced sequence per take, angles stacked into multicam scenes, your camera audio kept, the clean recorder placed where you want it, and a master timeline of the whole shoot. Matched and unmatched footage is filed so you can see exactly what happened.
- Angles stacked V1, V2, V3 on a shared clock
- Sequential recordings laid back to back on one track
- Master timeline of every synced sequence, end to end
- Matched and unmatched bins, originals untouched

Multicam
The multicam that assembles itself.
Two cameras on one interview shouldn't mean an afternoon of setup.
Angles find each other.
When two or three cameras lock to the same recording at the same time, Sync knows they're angles of one moment. It stacks them into a single scene sequence on a shared clock, camera audio kept underneath, clean sound where you want it.
A long take covered by several recorder files? Those land back to back on one audio track, not staircased across five. And every scene is nested into the master timeline, so the whole day is one scrub.
Turn scenes or the master off in settings if you'd rather have one sequence per clip. Your workflow, your call.

FAQ
Common questions
Everything you need to know about Sync.
No. Sync only reads the media already in your project and creates new sequences from it. Your original bins, files, and folder structure stay exactly as they are. The Sync bin holds everything it builds, plus linked copies showing what matched and what didn't.
No. Everything runs locally, including the dialogue matching, which uses an on-device speech engine. Nothing is uploaded, and syncing works without an internet connection.
Anything your editor plays, including camera-native formats like R3D, BRAW, and ARRIRAW, with no transcoding first. On the audio side: WAV, MP3, and everything in between, including hour-long recorder files that span many takes.
It tells you instead of guessing. Uncertain matches go to a review queue that shows you what each matching method found. You can nudge the sync by a frame, re-check it, approve it, or leave it out. Only confident matches build automatically.
When two or more cameras lock to the same recording at overlapping times, Sync recognizes them as angles of one moment and stacks them into a single scene sequence on a shared clock, with the clean audio underneath. Solo takes get their own sequence. You can turn scene building off in settings if you prefer one sequence per clip.
No. Timecode is used when it's there, but Sync locks footage with dialogue matching and waveform analysis alone. No slates, no claps, no jam-sync boxes required.
Yes. Sync is included with your Filmit Studio subscription at $20/month, along with every other Filmit tool, overlay, and course. Try it with a 7-day free trial.
