Editing Audio from Timeline in Another Program

Often, one will want to edit the Audio on the Timeline, in another application, like Adobe Audition. Premiere versions allow for this to be done easily, and with exacting control.
Let's say that one has dozens of edited Clips on the Timeline, and they wish to edit ALL of the Audio. * Editing those individual Clips is easy, but how does one edit them all in one file, which will then replace the original Audio in the Clips?
The best way to accomplish this is to Export, or Share the Timeline as an Audio Only file. This Export/Share will be slightly different, depending on the exact Premiere program, and even on the version of that Premiere Program. Often, the Audio-only Export/Share is from the MS AVI Export/Share screen. One would choose Export Audio, leaving Export Video unchecked. If Multiplexing does not automatically set to "None," choose that now.
For this "round-trip" process, the Audio file format is very important. The ideal choice of Export/Share is PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit. This will yield an uncompressed Audio file, that almost every Audio editing program will easily handle, and is also the format, that one will want to Export, or Save from the Audio editor, for the second leg of our round-trip.
Import, or Open that resultant PCM/WAV in the Audio editing program, and edit, as is needed. When done, just Export, or Save (depends on the program) that edited Audio as a PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit. In some Audio editing programs, this will be listed as WAV (Uncompressed). The Sample-Rate and Bit-Depth are important, as the 48KHz and 16-bit are the ideal for any flavor of Premiere, and though Conforming will be necessary for editing, it will be easy on the program, and there will be no issues. Stay away from any compressed Audio formats/CODEC's, like MPEG/MP3. You do not want to throw away precious data at any step. That is why we use PCM/WAV for the Export/Share, and then the Export/Save from the Audio editing program.
When done, just Import that resultant PCM/WAV into Premiere. Wait a moment for all Conforming to complete, and then drag that WAV to the Timeline, on a free Audio Track that matches your WAV's Channel-count, i.e. a 2-channel Audio Track for Stereo, or a 1-channel Audio Track for Mono (these must match in Premiere). For more detail on channel-count and Audio Tracks, see this ARTICLE.
Now comes a personal preference for completing this round-trip. I like to leave my original Audio, just in case I change my mind. Gathering up and Trimming the original Audio can be a tedious task. As I have placed my edited WAV onto an empty Audio Track, I just go to Window>Audio Mixer, and Mute any/all Audio Tracks, containing my original Audio. It's still there, if I ever need it, but is now Muted.
Hope that this helps,
Hunt
* Sometimes we want part of the Timeline's Audio, but that part spans multiple Clips. There is no need to Export/Share the entire Timeline, and then Trim it. Just set the WAB (Work Area Bar) to the part that we do want, and make sure to choose "Work Area" in the Export/Share settings dialog.
Also, and especially when doing just a segment, covered by the WAB, I like to position the CTI (Current Time Indicator) or Playhead (CS 5.5) at the beginning of the WAB, with Snap ON. As I drag my edited WAV to the free Audio Track, it will Snap into place, right at the beginning of the WAB.

There isn't any simply way to where you want to go.
You can export each track separately. Switch off the audibility for all the tracks except one. Export the track. Repeat for each of the tracks in the timeline. Export the video for reference.

When you set up the new Mac, you can use Migration Assistant to transfer both from your iMac and your external drives. You can also use Target Disk Mode to drag over the things you want.

I have to select a file – get Info – and change – open with and change from preview to another program and CHANGE ALL everytime I boot up

Why do I have to select a file – get Info – select – open with – and change from Preview to another program and click CHANGE ALL with every file extention everytime I boot up.

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
The first step should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Editing Audio from Footage

I want to edit some audio from some video footage. Under the process menu in Sountrack Pro which items should I pay attention for refining the audio qaulity.
The audio basically sounds fine, but I want to make sure it meets industry benchmarks for audio qaulity.

Hey,
Just an alternative suggestion consider moving up to at least Tiger 10.4.3, it increaes the speed on STP by a ton, it goes with a PROAPP-Runtime 3.1, that helped me considerably for taking the time to apply heavy filters like Space Designer.
Basically all you have to do with dialogue is compensate the EQ lacks, where there's a drop in high pitch volume for instance add some high EQ like the AU graphic 10 band, 8khz. You don't need much more than that just remember that dialogue centers between about 4hz and 8khz, so don't worry about anything higher, you can even run a lowpass filter, and use the cutoff at around the highest frequency of dialogue, 8-10khz, to compare for music it would be about 20khz.

Editing Audio from PP CS4 in Soundbooth coming back out of sync.

After cleaning up audio from PP CS4 using the "edit in Soundbooth" option. The audio comes back out of sync. How do I solve this?
thanks!

I am sorry for the confusion. When putting the playhead in the middle, the instrumental sounds as if somebody has slid it to the right. No, it does not start early and end late. It (the instrumental) is just at a later part of the song no matter where I put the playhead. For example, I put the playhead at a certain point of the song, and at that point the instrumental is sounding a part of the track located at an earlier location of the song (maybe a second or 2). There is no change in pitch...the instrumental sounds the same...it is just at the wrong location every time I put the playhead anywhere but the beginning of the song.

Use picture from keynote in another program?

This may be a weird question but I hope there is an easy solution that's staring me in the face.
I have a presentation in Keynote that I want to use the elements of for a presentation in another program (Prezi). I've managed to misplace my original file of one picture and after digging in the computer for a while, am wondering if there is a way to either locate the photo through Keynote, get info, get the name of the file...anything that will more easily allow me to track it down.
I tried copy and pasting but Prezi doesn't work with Keynote in that way.
Thanks!

Click on image, open Metrics Inspector in File info you will see name of the file. Drag it to the Desktop. Now you have desired file on desktop.

Editing audio from one project to another

I'm trying to build a DVD project of different musical performances in Final Cut Pro X. The Mac I'm working with crashes every 30 minutes regardless of what I'm doing so, instead of building a monstrous timeline with two hours worth of performances on it (which will never save given the crash issues), I'm trying to build it by each song (4-6 minutes each).
The format is: opening billboard (with performer and song listed) --> fade into performance --> performance --> fade out of performance. If I were fading the audio out after each song, it would be simple but I'm trying to keep some of the audience track going under the next billboard so it blends better. I can't seem to cut the audio at the end of the fade out and apply it to the next song without continuing to build onto the same timeline which, due to the crash issues, doesn't help me.
Is there an audio work around that I'm missing? All I want to do is fade the audio a little past the fade effect, copy it and apply it to the beginning of the next song. Anyone?

Just ran into the same problem myself... while I get you CAN export the audio, then import it and use anyway you like I don't think that is the point of the original poster's question.
The voice-over clip has unique properties and as such I (and it looks like other users) would like to be able to "copy & paste" a voice-over clip from one project to another. Alternatively if I could drag and drop the voice-over clip into my Event that would be great too. Doesn't seem like an unreasonable request. Right now the famed Apple ease-of-use is missing for those of us who have recorded voice over elements we want to use in more than one project.
Had I known iMove would not allow sharing of voice over clips within iMovie I would have recorded my voice-over clips in another application and imported them all as audio-clips. Which certainly defeats the point of the inclusion of voice-over in iMovie.
Any solutions that work within the app without an export/import required?

Moving edited audio from iMovie to iDVD?

I'm running iMovie HD 5.0.2 and iDVD 5.0.1. I've been taking some old programs off my Tivo, editing out commercials and burning them to DVD.
Everything has been running pretty well (though, of course, there are thousands of features of the programs which I'm not using and of which I'm probably unaware), but I recently had a problem that I can't figure out.
I did search through these discussions and found the answer to a problem I had: I couldn't figure out why several edited twenty-five to thirty second clips created from longer ones (copy and paste), when pasted into iDVD drop zones only played from the beginning of the original seven minute clip. Then, as I said, I found that I needed to Share them in iMovie HD as QT files and then use the Import function of iDVD. This worked fine.
However, I can't figure out how to do the same thing with audio only. When I edit the audio to a shortened 25-30 second sound clip which I want to drag into iDVD for a menu soundtrack, it takes the entire seven minute long audio track.
So, if I need to do a Share, how do I extract just the audio. Whenever I try it, it takes the whole thing. Dragging and Dropping does the same.
Is this even possible in iMovie HD? Can it be used to edit and then save an audio clip as an aiff or mp3 file?
Would someone know what I'm doing wrong?
Thank you.

When you share, select Quicktime, then choose 'expert settings'. Then from that menu choose 'audio only to aiff'.

I edited audio from a clip in logic. when putting both back together in FCE it is out of sync.

Hi there,
i am more of a logic user than a FCE user. so i had a clip recorded at a friends in 720p (1280x720).
the audio codec used was 24-bit integer (little indian), stereo at 44,1k
the video one was: apple openDML JPEG, 1280x720
since i am used to the logic audio environment i decided to edit the audio in logic.
but now when putting it into FCE the clip is shorter than the video clip and starts to run away from the video. after a while its totally desynced.
i tried to edit the audio in logic in a 48k session and 44,1k,. bounced it 24bit and 16 bit and i feel i tried everything that come to my mind but nothing worked.
so right now i am really needy for any kind of idea that might work.
i hope i described the process of what i have been doing sufficiently and have given enough information (FCE 4.0, Logic Pro)
excuse my poor english, i am not used to writing anymore.
i hope someone takes the time and there is a possibility to fix this without editing the audio in FCE.
cheers and thanks in advance

well.... i had some problems when i exported the video and audio toghether. could not get the resolution right. so i changed the sequence settings to apple intermediate codec 720p30.
thing is this seems to work with audio 48k but the source file just got 44,1k.
before grasping the fit to fill feature, i got to check what that means.
thanks a lot for your help already
do i need to export the project in 48k audio maybe before i can use logic the edit the audio?

Quality issue with importing edited audio from Adobe Audition CS6 to Articulate 09

I have edited an audio file using Adobe Audition CS6 and the playback sounds fine. I then import the edited file into Articulate'09 and the audio sounds horrible, very tinny and not useable. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this issue? I have tried saving the audio files as mp3 and wav to see if that would help and it did not make a difference.

I checked - it certainly supports both formats, but you'd have to be a lot more specific about what's wrong, because 'sounds horrible' doesn't convey anything meaningful at all, I'm afraid. And we have no idea of the format you are using - it's very possible that if it's being resampled on the way in by the operating system. If that's the case you have to find out specifically what formats (in terms of bit depth and sample rate) that this software actually supports.
Bottom line is that I'm afraid that this isn't very likely to be an Audition problem at all - you may get a more detailed and meaningful response from Articulate themselves.

No Audio From Timeline or Viewer

I just ingested P2 Card media into FC6. But I cannot hear external audio when playing back the media in Viewer or from the timeline.
I Can hear audio playback from within Log and Transfer, going to typical external speakers. I Can also hear audio when I double click and play the Quicktime file converted from the MXF file. I Can see the bars in the audio mixer jumping up and down. I Can see audio indicators everywhere, so I know it's there.
I'm missing a setting somewhere. I do not see any mute buttons pushed in the four audio channel tabs. The audio is not turned off (darkened) in the time line.
I'M STUMPED!!! Any pointers will be greatly appreciated. Project deadline!
Thanks

NEVER MIND! I found the solution. For any searches that may find this, I went into Audio/Video settings, A/V Devises, Playback Output, Audio: It was set to Decklink Audio and I changed it to Default.
I have no idea of the logic implications here, I just tried it and it worked!

How do I get firefox version 36 to play from audio from our selected default program and not the embedded quicktime player?

In our newsroom environment, staff prefers to have MP3s from various download sources open directly in an outside program's window (in this case Goldwave is the preferred program). That being said, with the newer version (36 specifically) the behavior of the program has changed so that MP3s are opening in a separate browser tab, regardless of the preferences in the "Applications" window of the Options as well as the program defaults within Windows. Previous adjustments made to about:config media.windows-media-foundation.enabled as well as media.directshow.enabled and setting to "False" no longer solve this issue.

hi tjh1211, please leave "media.windows-media-foundation.enabled" and "media.directshow.enabled" on their default value and switch "media.play-stand-alone" to false instead...

Why can't I place an image from Photos into another program like InDesign?

This was never an issue with iPhoto but I just discovered that I can't place an image into InDesign from Photos. Or any design program for that matter. I only seem to be able to access Photo Booth which is useless. Using Yosemite 10.10.3 and a new iMac.

Maybe Adobe need to update their package - the media browser works just fine from Safari, Pages, etc - same as it did previously with iPhoto and Aperture except now there is the addition of Photos
Contact their support and see what they have to say
Certainly the export work around is more trouble

Editing audio from a FCP sequence

I have just finished editing a long sequence in FCP and now want to get rid of a background audio hum in the background of all the clips. What is the easiest way to export all my small audio clips into STP, remove the hum, then re-import into FCP.
I'm totally new to STP and finding the workflow very confusing.
Thanks!

RIght-click on the sequence in the assets window (default is Sequence 1, unless you changed the name) and click on send to>soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project

Premiere Pro to Adobe Audition Dynamic link does not work. Cannot edit audio in Audition.

Trying to edit Audio from Premiere Pro within Audition thru the Dynamic link but it does not fire up Audition to edit. Seems like a common problem/bug. But no one has posted a solution. Please Help
-Windows 7
-Premiere Pro CC 2014
-Adobe Audition CC 2014

You dont understand it was all working fine in the previous Adobe versions. matter of fact you can go on youtube and see a couple of videos that shows the work flow between Premiere Pro and audition by way of Dynamic link. If you edit a video clip in Premier Pro and want to add some music or simply edit the audio that is contained in the video there was a time within Premiere Pro you can just right click "Edit in Adobe Audition" and Audition would open with the audio clip in place. Much in the same way Premiere Pro works with After Effects thru the Dynamic Link. The Dynamic Link is the bridge between applications to work with each other. For some reason Premiere Pro and Audition Dynamic Link is not working properly.
