How do I make two audio clips from different mics sound the same in premiere?

I have a video I am working on. we used two different mic and camera options. One is a lavaliere mic that was too hot and picked up a lot of fuzz, and the other was an on board mic that was just a little echoey from the office walls. I found that some clips were better on different versions. so I want to put the two different sets next to each other in video and make the sound be the exact same. That way no one notices the differences in audio.
Any help is appreciated.

Hi. Although not perfect, I'd add an audio mixer effect and adjust the highs, mids & lows on both of them to help their audio, respectively, sound more similar. Often when I shoot, my Boom mike (backup) is much fuller sounding than the lavs. are. Lavs are inherently lacking in the low end, and the boom is often too hot on the low end. So I would add Audio Mixer effect, and lower the low end on the boom slightly, and highten the low and mids just a bit on the lavs. Even taking a little highs off the lavs makes it sound a bit more like the boom. 
As far as echo is concerned, you probably can't do to much about that unless you have an external graphic equalizer/limiter. Lot's of times I just add  some music in the background, which helps a lot to hide echo from the mics.
Finally if you tape/record/film in a location that has lots of background noise like, background people, cars or rain or wind or general white noise "hiss", then you should record a minute or two of the location without any dialogue. This is is known as "Wala" recording. You can add a little of this to your whole track, or just on the mike track that doesn't seem to pick up the ambient sound, thus making it sound more like your other mike.
I hope this helps.

  • How do I merge two iTunes libraries under different profiles on the same MacBook Pro?

    I used Migration Assistant to import my music library from an old dell to my new MacBook Pro, however 2 profiles were created and now half my music is on one profile and the rest on the other and neither profile can access the music on the other. Please Help

    This is indeed an excellent question. I am looking for what seems to be the exact same solution. I have two libraries, where the ratings, checks, and play counts are included in the itunes xml library files. I have found that using synchronization software only compares documents and replaces one with the other. If I modify one computer (in terms of collections, ratings, or play counts), and then don't synchronize before modifying the other computer, then my libraries do not match.
    If there were a quick solution to compare and merge libraries, then I would not have to re-synchronize libraries each time I switch computers (assuming I'm not adding/changing mp3 file structure).
    I suppose there could be a very long-winded applescript to do this, but I'm not familiar with scripting, nor interested. Any help?
    Have any solutions been found?

  • I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

  • Hi can someone tell me if it is possible to have two accounts (from different countries) in the same laptop?

    Hi can someone tell me if it is possible to have two accounts (from different countries) in the same laptop?

    Hi...
    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside to make purchases.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
    From here >  The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    Billing policy is the same for both the iTunes as well as Mac App Stores.

  • Can two users work on different files of the same project?

    Sorry if this has been asked already...but can two users work
    on different files of the same project? How would that work? Would
    it work something like this?
    1. From RoboHelp 7, user A checks out the entire project.
    2. User A checks in the files they are not working with.
    3. User B checks out the project but can only 'edit' the
    files that have been checked in by user A.
    Is this how the source control works?

    That's the basic idea. User A doesn't actually have to check
    out the whole project, though. RSC will selectively check out only
    the files that are actually getting changed. Both writers will have
    a complete copy of the project on their local machines, but the
    files are read-only until they are literally checked out, which is
    on an as-needed basis unless the writer explicitly checks them out.

  • Data from different databases in the same report.

    Hi Everyone,
    I am trying to build a reconciliation report in which I need to show the data from the source and target, side by side.
    Source and target are both different databases, although being oracle only
    Whenever a new data model is created, it gets attached to a data source and in the report we need to choose a specific data model.
    Can we have data from different databases in the same report ?

    Yes, it is possible.
    One way Is to use dataTemplates. There you can make queries from any number of different databases (The max I have done is 5).
    It looks something like that:
    <dataTemplate name="NameOfTemplate">
    <dataQuery>
         <sqlStatement name="Q1" dataSourceRef="Connection1">
              <![CDATA[     select * from table1]]>
         </sqlStatement>
         <sqlStatement name="Q2" dataSourceRef="Connection2">
              <![CDATA[     select * from table2]]>
         </sqlStatement>
      </dataQuery>
      <dataStructure>
         <group name="RESULT1" source="Q1">
              <element name="P_FIRST_NAME" value="P_FIRST_NAME"/>
         </group>
         <group name="RESULT2" source="Q2">
              <element name="P_DATE" value="P_DATE"/>     
         </group>
      </dataStructure>
    </dataTemplate>dataStructure is very important when you get data from different places, if you don't define those elements, then only the result from Q1 is shown.
    The second possible way is to make as two different data models, each containing their own query and then set Main Data Set as concatenated SQL Data Source.
    Best of luck,

  • Mail sorting messages from different people in the same thread?

    I have this weird issue. It's happened before but I figured I might be able to figure this out.
    I got a response from somebody this morning and whats happening is, when I click on his response, the email shows up on the right like it should. However, ths email is from "Floyd" and shows as email "2". It shows another email below it in the "thread" from "Taryn" and has absolutely nothing to do with this email. The only similarities are the subject line which says "Poster". The "First" email from Taryn is from April. It seams as if it's sorting the emails by subject line. I don't want emails from different people in the same thread. Any thoughts on how to fix this issue? Image attached.

    This question is about the same as mine.  I migrated all my data from old mac mini to new mac mini.  System screwed up and permission and owners were not setup.  Now I'm trying to salvage this mess.  I'm also trying to import mail, which I think should be on the computer but I don't know where.

  • How do I stop background audio clips from playing while browsing sites?

    Firefox is my default browser. I use Google chrome and Internet explorer sessions for background monitoring news site sessions at the same time. I have no problem with the other two browsers. While surfing with Firefox I get unwanted background audio clips that start and run by themselves. I cannot stop them. They run and then stop by their self. They are some sort of adware and I cannot find the source to remove them. I also get video clips sometimes that I can stop that run around the outside of the active window I am viewing. These is very annoying. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it but the problem does not go away. I antivirus software, registry change protection software, and registry cleaning software. The problem is with the default browser.
    How can I locate and remove the plugin, addin or service that starts this annoying activity. I have no special unwanted toolbars installed. There is nothing in the installed programs list in the control that shouldn't be there.

    I had a similar problem to this. EVERYTIME i started firefox, it would play an audio clip from a flash game i played a while ago, it would last 5 minutes before finishing. i tried the starting in safe mode, but that didn't work for me, so after that i then tried RESETTING firefox, and that has worked for me.
    On another side of startup problems, firefox would also open up a new tab on startup, usually 22find.com or do-search.com. i know these are caused by a virus and have since deleted it, but it had changed a preference file in firefox causing it to continue to open on startup.
    Having since done the firefox reset, i haven't had either of these problems AT ALL! would recommend this as a possible fix for you friend before trying any lengthy troubleshooting process or downloading any extra anti-virus removal software.

  • How do you link two audio clips to one video clip?

    Hi guys,
    I want to think multiple audio clips to one video clip and aint know how to do it! I found this page on Adobe knowledge base:-
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/3.0/help.html?content=WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b 1038518aef7-7f40.html
    It says you can do it but I don't think it explains how? Can anyone provide me with the simple steps required to link two audio clips to one video clip? Many thanks.

    Do you mean manual syncing? I've been reading this thread about workaround, which aren't working for me: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/344/21236
    But the question they are asking is the same one I am asking. Isn't this a typical situation, having multiple mics for one camera? For example, if someone filmed a concert with one camera but used both the camera audio, and ambient mic, and a mix from the board, then that would be 3 audio tracks with 1 video track. I'm in a similar situation, and I'm finding it hard to believe that FCPX isn't equipped to edit this way. There must be some way to get one video clip (with reference audio) to sync with four audio tracks.

  • How do I make DVD with clips from 2 different iMovie files?

    For some reason, my movie clips got imported into 2 different files. And now I can't make a DVD using clips from both. Should I reimport the movies? And if so, how can I make sure they all get imported into the same file?
    Thanks!

    I apologize, but I am still unsure of what you mean...
    "When I open iMovie, at the top of the screen, it says: iMovie: 4-22-2005. But there is also another file with another date."
    There is another file where? What kind of file? Is this a clip you are talking about or another project? Another file within the project? On the clip shelf? A completely separate project folder?
    "How do I ensure that it just goes into the same file/folder?"
    When you open a project and then import clips they all go into the same folder of that project by default and by design. iMovie is not designed to allow you to import some stuff here and some stuff there. When you create a project, a folder system is setup and in that main project folder is a media folder. All your work files (video footage, audio files, etc.) get put into that folder and no others.
