Eddie AI, the AI-powered assistant editor, has introduced multi-track audio support for Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve projects. This update addresses a critical workflow limitation for professional editors using field recorders and wireless microphone systems, enabling seamless AI-assisted editing without manual audio track consolidation.
Palo Alto-based Eddie AI announced the feature expansion following feedback from its professional user community. The company’s AI assistant editor previously supported only single-track audio from track 1, creating friction for editors whose production workflows rely on discrete audio channels recorded by modern field equipment.
The new capability allows Eddie AI to correctly identify and preserve multiple audio tracks throughout the editing process. When projects round-trip back to Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, all clips and their associated audio tracks reconnect automatically, maintaining the original channel layout established during production.
According to Shamir Allibhai, CEO and co-founder of Eddie AI, customers were loving Eddie AI and the idea of a powerful AI assistant editor. Still, they were previously blocked from adopting it because their interview audio was often recorded with an external audio device and written to a separate audio track. Eddie now handles clips with multi-track audio in Adobe Premiere and Resolve.
With multi-track audio support implemented, Eddie AI can analyze dialogue accurately across separate microphone channels, remove filler words and dead space without collapsing audio tracks, generate structured rough cuts while preserving original audio channel layouts, and eliminate manual cleanup steps traditionally required before AI-assisted editing could begin.
The feature aims to reduce time-to-first-cut by eliminating ingest preparation work. Editors can now import multi-track media directly into Eddie AI without pre-consolidating audio channels or creating intermediate files.
According to the company, Eddie AI developed and validated this feature through collaboration with its user community. Professional editors shared real-world media from interviews, multicam shoots, and live productions to stress-test the implementation across both Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve workflows.
The company emphasized the role of community feedback in identifying this workflow bottleneck and validating the solution before public release.
The multi-track audio announcement comes during a busy week for Eddie AI, which also launched “dirty” multicam support for Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, further expanding the platform’s capabilities for complex editing scenarios.
Multi-track audio support is currently available in beta for both Mac and Windows versions of Eddie AI. The feature works through the company’s helper extensions for Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, which facilitate the round-trip workflow between the AI assistant and the host editing applications.
Did you already have the chance to try and test Eddie AI, and if so, what was your impression? Was it improving your editing speed and workflow? Please share your thoughts with us in the comment section blow.
