Edit & export audio segments as separate files?

Hi,
I'm cutting up recordings of PowerPoint presentations into separate clips, one per slide. I am wondering how I can edit on the timeline, then mark each slide, master the audio, and export one clip per marker. Is that segmenting done from Premiere, or is it an option to export one file per marker within Media Encoder? How?
Or, do I need to use subclips instead? Please don't say I need to do a sequence for each slide (or would that be less messy than it sounds?).
Or should I do this editing in Soundbooth instead, since the editing is basically audio-driven? How's segmenting done there?
Thanks!

Hi Kevin -
It's funny... We are doing the exact same thing that you are. We are recording webinars, chunking up the audio into individual files according to PPT slides, and putting the audio back into the PPT presentation so they can be played back as the presentation initially aired. We're also exporting the reconstituted presentations as standalone webcasts that people watch online.
Okay - here's how we're doing it... I record the webinar's audio and video (Camtasia for audio and GoToWebinar's built-in .WMV recorder for video). I make a new project in Premiere and import both the video and audio. I only use the .wmv for visual reference (to know exactly where to split the long audio clip). I go through the audio clip and do an Alt + [ to mark the left side of the work area (essentially the In point) and Alt + ] to mark the right slide of the work area (essentially the Out point). I then split the clip at the out point (Control + K) in case I have to go back and re-edit or re-export later. Once I have my slide's audio marked with a work area, I go to file, export, media. This launches Adobe Media Encoder. In AME, I make .mp3s of each slide's audio. I then reinsert the .mp3s in the PPT presentation.
What I would LIKE to do is put chapter or Flash markers at the end of each slide's audio and then have it chunk up the clips for me based on the markers. The quest to do that led me to this post. I'll let you know if I find out any info on how to do that, but for now, the process is pretty manual and time-consuming. I am a long-time Avid editor, and that offers no solution either. What have you found with Final Cut?
Something also that may work for you (but not for us for various reasons) is iSpring Presenter's sync function. This allows you to bring in the entire audio clip and put it on the first PPT slide. Then you click a stopwatch icon when the audio is supposed to go to a different slide. This syncs up your audio and PPT for you. No more Premiere. Here is specific info on how to do that. It works great. We don't use it because we have to cut back into the presentation with live audio. But it may work great for what you're doing.

How can I edit the audio in a QT file without having to transcode it first?

I have some 320x256 QT files that feature some background noises that I want to edit out and dub over with some new audio. Is there an app that will let me do this while retaining the files at their native resolution?
The only method I've found so far is to import them into iMovie, which transcodes them to 720x576 DV files from which I can extract the audio, edit and re-export at 320x256, but I'd really like to avoid the transcoding step.

QuickTime Pro can "extract" the sound track. This will create a copy you can then "export" to a suitable sound editing format (.aiff).
Edit the .aiff file using your sound editing software and then open the file with QT Pro and export to the original format used in the source movie. Add it "scaled" back into your original source movie and "delete" the older sound track. Use "Save As" and your file will complete.

Exporting Audio - .mp3 and .wav files

OS: Windows XP
Captivate version: 3
When exporting audio files, both a .wav file and .mp3 file are exported for each audio instance listed in the Library.
Why are there two different versions of the same audio?
Does Captivate utilize both?
I appreciate your help.
PJL

Hi Mukul
Thanks for that answer! Can we take it one step further and clarify something please?
Imagine that one has a MP3 file they successfully import into Captivate. It gets converted to WAV upon import. If the user does not modify it in any way during the edit process, is the same MP3 used when publishing? Or is it modified in any way going back out?
Cheers... Rick

New to Soundbooth....How can I export audio from a .flv file?

Hi,
I am sorta new to SB. My girlfriend has purchased a study program that has numerous .flv files on a DVD. She has asked if I can take the audio and convert each movie to an .mp3, (so that she can listen to the videos on her Iphone). I figured I could open them in SB and then export as an .mp3, which would work fine on her Iphone.
The problem I run into is that when I open the .flv files in SB, the video appears, but the audio doesnot. The .flv videos play fine in every other program. Am I doing something wrong? I figure since she purchased the DVDs (and owns the study program), that I am not doing anything illegal by removing the audio. Are they encrypted?
Any other way to do this?
Thanks,
G

Use the Share menu. Choose Export Using QuickTime.
Choose Sound to AIFF.

Batch Exports of clips as separate files

I've seen a lot of complaints about the "inability" of Premiere Pro to batch-export clips under their own names. There's a current thread over on the SpeedGrade forum concerning this, from someone wanting to do dailie's but exported not as a timeline but specific separate clips with their original clip names. This is a mistaken impression.
PrPro CAN batch export clips, but not a timeline into separate clips. That's the hangup, we've all tended to look at the timeline export box.
1) In the Project Panel, click once on any clip you want to batch-export, using the "standard" selection clicking process ... hold "shift" while clicking a second clip will select the original, that clip, and everything in between; clicking on a clip, then holding ctrl/cmd and clicking on additional clips will add just the clips you click on.
2) Right-click on any of the selected clips, and at the bottom of the dialog box, select "Export Media".
This takes you to PrPro's standard export box, where you can do things like (under the Effects tab) apply a "look" or a LUT of your choice to the batch (handy to standardize the look of a project) before adding to the Queue, which then takes you to Media Encoder for your export operation.
Slick enough, actually. Not quite as easy as say choosing simply a sequence, BUT ... at least, doable. Might be easier on long projects to put clips on each sequence say into a bin for that sequence. Cleaner, also.

How do I export detached audio files as separate files, for Pro Tools processing?

My project is a live band performance. I have every song as a separate Event with associated audio. I have detachd all the audio from all the video Events. I now want to Export the audio files to Pro Tools for editing, then Import the edited audio back into FCP X and snap the edited audio to the associated video Events.
My problem is this: FCP X keeps exporting the audio as a single large WAV file, rather than as separate WAV files. In fact, the video events are separate, and so the audio associated with the video Events are separate.
I first renamed the Role of every audio file as "Music", then did a Share --> Export Media of all "Music" audio Roles. After exporting, I found it was one large WAV file, rather than separate files of different sizes.
As a 2nd try, I created Sub-Roles for each audio clip, and named each one with a distinct Sub-Role name. I then Exported all these Sub-Roles (yes, tedious). The result was that every exported WAV file was the same size, the same as the file size in my first try. The only audio that could be heard in each file was the audio in that particular song, but FCP X still created the very large file with silence in all the rest of the file. Since the file lengths don't match the original audio fil lengths, there will be a problem when I Import the edited files back into FCP X and want to Snap them into place.
Question:
How can I export the individual detached audio clips as separate files, the length of each file equaling the length of the original audio file in FCP X?
Do I need to separate the detached audio into separate Layers visually in the Project Timeline, so they are not touching? Or does this matter?
Help!!

No.
You need to explore Compound Clips. This workflow may or may not be of help.
Select an Event with clips in it and press Option+G to make a (blank) compound clip.
Select the Event Browser, create a new Event and call it 'Effects'.
Drag the Compound Clip into this Event.
Right-click the clip and select 'Open in Timeline'.
Select the timeline and press Option+W. This will add a Gap Clip to the timeline.
Select the gap clip and press Ctrl+D then type in the duration you want the clip to be.
Now open a project and select and copy one of the clips with effects etc.
Open the Compound Clip in the Timeline again, select the gap clip and press Option+Cmd+V to paste the effects into your Compound Clip.
This clip is now saved in your Browser and will remain there for you to copy and then paste the effects into any clip in any project.
It's a bit clunky, but it works - and once you learn about Compound Clips, you can work wonders with them. As an example, if you want to add more effects without overwriting the effects in the Compound Clip, simply make the Compound Clip into a Compound Clip (again) and add the effects. They will be added to the original effects.

Exporting from .mpeg to .mov file loses sound

Okays so I know that there are numerous forum discussions out there on this topic but none helped me figure out my problem so I decided to create my own.
I'm trying to take a xxx.mpeg file and convert it to a smaller xxx_web.mov file that I can use for posting on the web and sending to friends easily over ichat. To get my mpeg file I:
1. used mac-the-ripper to get the Video_TS folder from a DVD with now encryption.
2. then I took that .VOB file from that and drug it into MPEG Streamclip to convert the .VOB file to an xxx.mpeg.
All is well up till this point and xxx.mpeg plays fine with sound. Next I tried to use quicktime pro to export my xxx.mpeg file to xxx_web.mov. This gave me video with now sound
Then I read about mpegs being muxed and I needed to demux them. So I used MPEG Streamclip to demux xxx.mpeg with the following option from MPEG Streamclip:
DEMUX to M2V and AIFF.
This worked succussfully as well with the M2V file playing normally in quicktime with sound. I then tried to export the M2V file to a .mov file and got the same outcome...video but no sound.
Can someone walk me through what I'm doing wrong? Also I just started using MPEG Streamclip can it do everything i'm trying to do (meaning can I bypass using quicktime pro)?
Thank you.

1. used mac-the-ripper to get the Video_TS folder from a DVD with now encryption.
If the source DVD is not encrypted, then the VIDEO_TS folder or desired non-zero title VOB series can be copied directly to your hard drive without the use of MTR.
2. then I took that .VOB file from that and drug it into MPEG Streamclip to convert the .VOB file to an xxx.mpeg... I'm trying to take a xxx.mpeg file and convert it to a smaller xxx_web.mov file that I can use for posting on the web and sending to friends easily over ichat.
If you goal is to create a small, web compatible file, you should convert to your final target compression format while in MPEG Streamclip. Most Apple applications use the H.264/AAC compression format for posting to web sites since it generally produces the smallest file for a given level of quality. For instance, selecting the "Export to MPEG-4..." option in MPEG Streamclip, pressing the "iTunes" button, and then selecting an appropriate size/aspect combination will automatically load user settings to create your final file. The 640x480 or 640x360 iTunes option will produce a file similar to the iTunes option in QT Pro (or iTunes) but will also retain your audio.
All is well up till this point and xxx.mpeg plays fine with sound. Next I tried to use quicktime pro to export my xxx.mpeg file to xxx_web.mov. This gave me video with now sound
QT Pro does not fully support multiplexed MPEG compression formats. An MPEG (MPEG2/MP2) compression format will play in the QT player with the QT MPEG-2 Playback component installed but cannot be edited or converted and retain the audio. To retain the audio, you must use a third-party, MPEG-based conversion application like MPEG Streamclip.
Then I read about mpegs being muxed and I needed to demux them. So I used MPEG Streamclip to demux xxx.mpeg with the following option from MPEG Streamclip:
DEMUX to M2V and AIFF.
This work flow creates two elementary stream files. Both the M2V (with MPEG-2 component installed) and the AIFF file are QT Pro compatible. However, they must always be stored together on your hard drive. Since the M2V video file "resources" the AIFF audio in a separate file, if the files are separated, this reference will be orphaned and, as you have seen, you again end up losing your audio.
I just started using MPEG Streamclip can it do everything i'm trying to do (meaning can I bypass using quicktime pro)?... Can someone walk me through what I'm doing wrong?
Already covered. (See above.)
If I export to any format (QuickTime movie, AVI, Windows Media, MPEG-4), all of the audio options are greyed out. Some say explicitly that there is no audio in the source movie. If I go ahead, I get a file with no audio.
The "Save" and "Save As..." options do not convert the compression format. They merely take the data (which you already said plays correctly) and places it in an MOV file container where it continues to play correctly. On the other hand, when you attempt to convert the file to other compression formats (i.e., change the data within the container), then you lose the audio. As indicated above, multiplexed formats like MPEG-2 video with MPEG-1 layer 2 audio are playback only compatible with the QT structure. If you wish to convert the data to a different format and retain the audio, use a third-party, MPEG-based application.
QuickTime is obviously able to decode the .m1a audio since it can play it. Why does it seem to not be aware the audio is there if I try to export it?
Because QT is based on a multi-track engine that synchronizes audio and video frames with reference to external clocking. On the other hand, multiplexed content divides the audio and video into interspersed blocks of data synchronized spatially within a single data stream. QT could theoretically create two separate streams of data but has no way of synchronizing any single frame of audio with its video frame counterpart. The MPEG Streamclip engine can do this but requires the QT MPEG-2 Playback component to then bridge the gap between spatial and temporal based playback engines. Without this temporal relationship the QT player would probably return the infamous "Not a movie" message.

Computer shuts down after exporting H.264 from mts file

My computer shuts down after trying to export a H.264 file from a .mts file. I did this with no problems a few days ago, twice! This time line is longer, about 6.5 minutes. I have a I 5 processor, a gtx 660 graphics card and 8 megs of ram. I exported audio as a wave file and added those to the timeline. In the events panel, I get a message: "file importer detected an inconsistency in the file structure of audience_end_short.wav. Reading and writing this files metadata (xmp) has been disabled". it said the same for another short bit of audio, .wav file. I thought maybe there was a over heating issue, but to no avail. Do I need to get an I 7 processor? Please help!

sorry about the spelling! Still going. About the driver issue. I was updating Geo Force drivers and my friend said to revert to the original install, which I did a while ago. That helped, but obviously didn't cure it. Wonder if I should do the same for windows updates. So although I'm still rendering after 2 hours, perhaps the new user acount will get me through this. So strange that I was able to render/export the exact files the other day. Like I said, this mts clip is longer by a minute. Plus, I got rid of the wav files that had a meta data issue. Thanks for helping me everyone. I'll keep you posted. But I do believe an I 7 processor will at least help in the speed department right?

"Export audio of selected range markers to separate files" icon is grayed out in Markers window. Tracks show start times but no end times, yet duration is calculated.

I have one big wav file of segued tracks as a mixdown and inserted CD markers where I want marked tracks. "Export audio of selected range markers to separate files" icon is grayed out in Markers window. Tracks show start times but no end times, yet duration is calculated. Why can't I export these marked portions as separate files?

the markers durations need to be configured, there is an easy way to do this using your existing markers. click the start time of marker 2, this should change to edit mode to type in a new number, just copy the numbers cmd/ctrl+c. then click the end time of marker 1 and paste, cmd/ctrl+v. now repeat for the rest of the markers, and on the last one enter a value for the end time or click and drag on the duration to manually extend it. once all the markers have a duration, the button should be active to export.

Exporting (in H.264 format in HD 720p 23.976 preset) and audio comes out separate while video file is a .m4v instead of .mp4

Exporting (in H.264 format in HD 720p 23.976 preset) and audio comes out separate while video file is a .m4v instead of .mp4.
Anybody know why audio and video are exporting separately? I can't figure out why. Help is much appreciated.

Thank you for the quick response. Unfortunately, that doesn't fix it.
I have the same issue when I try to export it through Adobe Media Encoder. I even tried to go through using After Effects and export through Adobe Media Encoder with the same results. I'm wondering if I might be better off uninstalling then reinstalling all my adobe programs.

How do you export a specific audio segment in timeline

I recently tried to reduce noise from a specific clip by exporting a short segment of my audio to create a file I can use with audacity. I ended up exporting the entire audio segment of the project.
How can I select a specific clip segment that is only a part of the video and export it to create a file I can then edit using audacity?
I would like to avoid exporting the entire event clip from which that segment came. I have done considerable editing of the original video footage in the event and trying to figure out where that segment came from would require a considerable amount of time.
Any help or guidance is appreciated.

in fcpx 10.0.6, if you have a range selection, the export will be only that segment.
Hold down the R key and click-drag a range selection, or use the playhead to mark In ('i' key) and Out ('o' key) points.
Select Share > Export File
In the dialog, select Settings
For Format: Audio Only
Audio File Format: I recommend AIFF, CAF or WAVE (depending on your target audio editor.) [AAC, AC3, and MP3 are "delivery" formats, not editing formats.]
then hit Next and save it.
I recommend setting a marker at the in point so you can easily line up the edited audio when you re-import it.

Export QuickTime file with new audio and maintain the file size and quality as the original.

I shot some footage for a client yesterday and ran into an issue. To make a long story short I have QuickTime mov files shot with my Panasonic GH4 that have a buzzing sound in the audio track. I have clean audio from a recorder that can be sync'd. Is there a way for me to do this for the client and deliver them as the same QuickTime file but with the clean audio and keep the file size close to the original and not have quality loss in the image?
If so I will probably put all of the spanned clips together from each interview and sync the audio before delivery. I am just not sure which codec will give the client the same quality footage compared to the originals and not have a massive difference in the overall file size. They did request that they be Quicktime MOV files though so that is a must.
I don't see this as an option in the codecs in the export settings in PP, but is there a way to export as ProRes or another MAC native codec that will save them from having to convert it on their end? I am on a PC with Adobe CS5.5 so I am not too familiar with MACs, but from what I understand they would need to convert the files if I sent them straight out of the camera.
I found some related search results for this but they pertained to "Best quality" for export. I am not sure how the varying options work but I don't want to create files that are considerably larger, just not less quality.
If anyone has experience with this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Cole

Here's the workflow: I imported the video footage into iMovie '08 and did my edits. Then I exported it (share) to my desktop with compression set @ 740 X 480. Then I used QuickTime Pro to fix the audio track. The file plays perfectly with both audio tracks working. It's a QuickTime file (.mov).
I hope this jars any replies as to why the file when uploaded to my iWeb gallery drops the second audio track.
Hmm,

Exporting multiple clips from one sequence as separate files.

Hello fellow editors!
I have about 100+ video files that I want to cut into shorter clips, edit a bit and then export in a Final Cut friendly format (currently they are AVCHD mts files) to send it to my friend, who is putting the whole movie together.
I dont want to use Final Cut for this ( I cannot, I have a windows machine) and I was hoping to work with premier CC and media encoder CC.
There is a way of putting all clips in one sequence and then nesting each one, then you can send them to Encoder CC and it will render them as separate files - thats is just not very productive, nesting clips one by one and it takes forever for Encoder to import sequences.
I was wondering if there is a better workflow? I heard that Final Cut has shortcuts to do this very easily, you just click on all those clips in sequence and "batch export" them, which puts them in some place as separate, already cut files.?
Anything? I love premier, let my feelings be justified!)

Kevin Monahan ...
Lucid George is right ... select one trimmed clip, File->Export->Media, you can choose whether in-out or entire clip.
Select MORE than one clip, you get a completely different export box ...
These two selections were "exported" from that bin created by dragging the trimmed clips from the timeline to a new bin ... I don't know what else one is supposed to do. You can't even select multiples clips and batch sub-clipping, which would at least cut the steps down.

Error message when trying to export audio file to DVD

I recorded an interview on a portable voice recorder and transferred the data into Garage Band by connection of a cable connected to the headphone of the device to the speaker input in the Mac. Garage Band took the audio file. It is 1.5 GB. I did some minor editing and wanted to save the file onto a DVD. When I selected "share" to export song to the DVD, an error message came up stating that the file was over 2 GB, which it wasn't. The file was then broken in two and one part was "shared", but the same error message came up. I took the computer to the Apple store for the Genus to help me with, but he had the same problem. The only way that he was able to save the audio file to a DVD was to select the file and place the file on a blank DVD. However, it can only be listened on a computer with Garage Band. I intend to use my voice recorder again to interview people. How can I input the audio file in the Mac and have it saved on a DVD to be played on multiple devices?
