Multicam audio not working

FCPX 10.6.3


I'm new to multicam and I'm 9 scenes into a 10-scene play with 3 camera angles. I've been editing one scene at a time. All of a sudden, on scene 9, when I go to multicam, no audio. (To prep for scene 9, I added 3 additional videos for 6 angles total.) In Editor mode, all the audio is there, no problems. But in Multicam, the audio track is not shown below the clip. I've clicked on "audio roles" about 5 different places and all it says is "edit roles". If I click on video roles, it gives me options. What's going on?


Note the lack of the audio button in the inspector:


Again, only edit. Also, no audio below the clip.

It is possible that accidentally the Source Media could have been set to "Video Only" when you dragged the clip to the timeline.


Try this: select the multicam clip in the project timeline, press Shift-F to Reveal in Browser, make sure it is set to "All" and drag the browser selection over the clip in the timeline and choose Replace.

Izzy Video tutorials. Slightly older so the UI looks different but the concepts are still correct. https://youtu.be/_jvyrnQpR1E?list=PLp5SAgbM8S87n1qvv34-PAU2zMHLlXyfb
