4 channel audio capture

Does final cut express cpautre 4 channel audio as i have to a use radio mic and the onboard mic, how does it appear on the timline .

No, you cannot capture four channels. That was the question you asked. You can capture two channels. If you have one mic going into each of the two channels that make up the first pair you can capture them. Many cameras allow you to use 32k audio and record four channels, two stereo pairs. FCE will not capture the second stereo pair.

  • 4 channel audio capturing sdi

    when i capture digi beta (master is 4 channel) using sdi through decklink extreme i can only get 2 channels at a time i need to capture all 4 channels at one time
    please help

    Welcome to the forum.
    I searched Blackmagic Design's support page (a good place to start if you're asking a Decklink question) and I found this page:

  • Capture DV50 with 4 channels audio?

    I have a DVCPro 50 deck. I'd like to capture through Firewire, DV50 Capture preset. Except the preset only allows 2 channels of audio! How can I get 4 channels, without capturing twice?

    You can do 4 channels (mixed, IIRC) , but be advised you'll get 12bit audio.
    I've not done this, but here's a thread that has the procedure written up by... 'theshow'.

  • Audio Capture problem in Mac OS X 10.7.5 in Mac mini(in Silverlight)

    I got a mac mini and upgrade Mac OS X 10.6.x --> 10.7.5.
    However do not hearing the audio in Webpage using Silverlight.(10.6. version doing well)
    So, I found the solve this problem, that is a audio capture problem.( My device does not supported Stereo audio data).
    this is the source in audio capture using Silverlight code.
      CaptureSource source = new CaptureSource()
                            AudioCaptureDevice = CaptureDeviceConfiguration.GetDefaultAudioCaptureDevice()
                        try
                            foreach (AudioFormat af in source.AudioCaptureDevice.SupportedFormats)
                                if (af.Channels == 1 && af.BitsPerSample == 16 && af.SamplesPerSecond == 8000)
                                    source.AudioCaptureDevice.DesiredFormat = af;
                                    break;
    af.Channels is always af.Channel == 2(Stereo)
    --- the question is
    How can I caputure audio channel mono?
    If couldn`t, how can I transfered audio capture data stereo to mono?
    Please answer the question as soon as possible ^^

  • Configuring Audio Capture

    I am trying to sample the microphone using a recordStream. How do I control the rate, bits, unsigned, etc...
    If I use:
    p = Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio");
    Under Ktools everything slows to a trickle and takes about 5 seconds to record 20 miiliseconds worth of data, then i get aboput 80,000 bytes of data that appears to be 16 bits
    in the Manager class description
    http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/teaching/03/modules/CO/6/25/doc/LOC/MMA/javax/microedition/media/Manager.html
    it says I can do things like:
    Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio?bits=8");
    When I do this I get a MediaException:
    Cannot create a DataSource for: capture://audio?bits=8
    How can I control the sample rate, # of bits etc...?
    Thank You

    You can try to use "capture://audio?encoding=pcm&rate=8000&bits=8&channels=1" if it can't work, means that your system doesn't support 8bit audio. You should down the program into real phone and try again. If you want to minimize the audio size, you should use "encoding=gsm", but some phone does't support gsm audio capture!

  • Multitrack Audio Capture question ...Not DV related :)

    I am wanting to use FCP 5 to capture multitrack audio from a firewire interface such as the MOTU 828mkII while capturing video from my Kona LS at the same time.
    the FCP 5 page says, "Multichannel audio lets you capture and output up to 24 channels of high-resolution 24-bit, 96kHz audio in a single pass."
    I'm not sure if that means that you can capture up to 24 channels while you are capturing video or if the multitrack audio capture requires timecode syncing and capturing audio and video separately. The reason I'm trying to do this is that I want to capture the video and multi track audio live rather than recording to a deck with timecode and syncing it up later. I know this isn't the typical way to do it and that FCP capture is a less reliable way to record than a VTR. I'm aware of my Kona card's multiple audio channels, but I am specifically interested in a multi track audio interface (such as MOTU 828mkII).
    I've searched the forums and internet for weeks and I can't find anyone who has suggested that this work. Will a 828mkII just show up as another audio capture device in FCP that will record more than 2 channels during video/audio capture?
    Thanks!

    Hi gevus, I know this is somewhat late and if you haven't already found another solution then I would suggest that you purchase a pci sound card e.g. Soundblaster Live can be had for as little as $35.00 from Newegg.com (a very reliable online store with free shipping most of the time).  I capture video with my 9600 aiw pro and use a sb live...my mb also came with an onboard sound processor (nforce2) however, I still prefere the flexability of the Live card...plus dispite reviews on this nforce2 onboard sound as being as good as Live I disagree I listen to (and watch) alot of movies on my computer and have a pair of BOSE headphones. I cound definetely notice a difference in sound quality.  I dont know your video needs but the Audigy card by Creative Labs is even better if you need or want real good quality reproduction however, remember that the audio sorce is the real key to good sound.

  • Audio capture but can't hear it

    On my Clip Setting tab, the Audio check box and the Preview (Audio) check box are "checked." Also, the two channel audio bars indicate that there is audio on the tape. However, I do not hear audio in the camera or my MacBook Pro. I used an external mic that plugs into my camera (Canon Elura 65 - mini DV). I can "see" the audio. Please help!

    Tully,
    You really couldn't have heard the audio +from FCE+ during capture. FCE has never done it. You may have heard the audio from the speaker in your camcorder, but not through FCE.
    In your last post, however, you indicated that after capturing the clip you can't hear the audio. Is that the problem?

  • Media Encoder CC 2014 export for UK DPP v1.1 AS-11 has only 4 channels audio???

    You are correct. We are currently discussing this and are treating it as a feature request for a future update. In the future you can also submit feature requests here: Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form

  • Audio Capture from DV Tape

    I've reviewed many posts here about audio capture but, I am unable to figure out what the "trick" is to capturing audio alone with the video using the new iMovie. I'm connected via Firewire and I'm able to view the video in capture mode but, I hear no sound. I've checked iMovie Preferences and System Preferences and everything seems to be OK there.
    Is this the way this new version of this program functions? I wish I didn't have to post a msg here because, I'm trying to read the previous post and trying anything that seems to pertain to my issue without the desired results.
    Can someone please shed some light on what's going on with this function of this program?

    I assume you are wanting to hear the audio as you are importing and not that you have no audio once it is imported.
    imovie 08 doesn't play audio while importing. While you are using tape (that imports in real time) imovie now imports from a variety of different types of camera such as AVCHD (which isn't imported at real time. Therefore it is no longer logical to playback audio on import.

  • System Settings-Audio Capture

    In FCE, trying to capture VHS via DV converter box. The sound is not coming over. In system settings/scratch disk (internal hard drive) the audio capture is grayed out. Analog RCA composite video & stereo audio connectors in place. How do I get my sound?

    You can't get audio during capture as firewire has control.
    Use the audio from the play device if you need to hear what's happening. You will notice latency on the FCE capture window, that's normal as well.

  • Headphone jack no right channel audio

    So recently the right channel audio stopped working for my headphone jack. Any Ideas on how to fix this?

    I found a temporary solution :
    1) Open the registry editor (Windows key + R, then enter "regedit")
    2) Go to this directory :
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0001\Settings\Drv7246_DevType_0892_SS146210c7
    or something that looks like that
    3) Change the settings as following :
    Pin 14 : 02 00 00 00
    Pin 18 : 04 00 00 00
    Pin 19 : 04 00 00 00
    4) Restart
    5) Check if it applied. If it doesn't, try again. Sometimes it doesn't work at the first try.
    It actually remaps the Mic-in jack in a audio output. The sound coming out is a bit lower than the original output but it's still better than the crappy sound I've had since the headphone jack became a piece of .

  • Media Encoder not finding "audio capture device"

    Hi,
    Im using Adobe Flash Media Encoder with Dxtory for Twitch streaming, and at first it worked fine. Recorded both my mic and game audio perfectly. Then seemingly suddenly, I fired it up  and it wouldn't stream the game audio. It would my Mic, but thats it. I then unplugged the mic and it started saying I had no Audio Capture Device. I checked in Dxtory and its set up the same as it was when it was working. It picks up both the mic and speakers like it should. I have uninstalled this program multiple times, both 3.1 and 3.2 versions, and each time when I re-download it, it loads up the same profile I had before. So when I am uninstalling it, its not uninstalling everything for some reason. Even though the program is no where to be found after its uninstalled. I have downloaded xsplit, and it picks up the game audio and my mic. So its just this program. Anyone have any ideas? I cant seem to find anything online about this issue.
    Thanks!

  • Audio Capture problem

    When Capturing from a DV device on to final cut express HD, only audio is "caught". When I checked the scratch bin the audio selection was disabled (like, the check-bow was dimmed and unable to be changed). I'd like to be able to capture audio without using the voiceover feature and having to completely match audio with video. Ya dig?
    Thank you (for at least reading this)!

    then why is FCE capturing video but not audio. all the settings are correct, the only thing i fan find wrong is the "audio capture" check box in sratch disk settings under system settings is nulled to where you can't do anything to it. So, unless it's normally like that, I'd say it has something to do with the way it captures audio.
    so, please tell me that has nothing to do with it so I can find another reason why it won't capture audio.

  • Audio capture

    I want to whether the cross-platform supports the audio capture?
    If not ,are there any methods to finish audio capture on handheld

    Hey DaddyPaycheck, the tape deck is actually one of those boombox/shelf stereo with cd carousel, and dual tape deck (5.1 speaker system). Audio was working just before I disconnected the speakers. I tried using the speaker output jacks, as well as another audio out, but neither one of them was putting out audio through my computer's speakers. The sound preference recognizes the iMic, but not the Pyro. But the apps I mentioned recognizes both. Selecting the iMic for output in the system preference doesn't work either. I see the bars moving, but I believe that's just random noise the iMic is picking up.
    So, by all intent and purpose, the set up I have should technically work?

  • Audio Capture only happens if its more than 5 seconds

    Hello,
    I'm writing a midlet that does audio capture on the LG CU500 phone. When I capture for 5 seconds or more, audio capture works as intended, however if I only record for under 5 seconds, it doesn't work. There is no timer. Would could be causing the problem?
    Thanks

    Here is a snippet of the code that i'm using. When playing back, if I record say 10 seconds, I only hear about 7 seconds of the recording. About 3 seconds are cut off at the end. If I record for say less than 4 seconds, nothing seems to be recorded, nothing plays back.
    To record I do the following
    try {
    if(player != null)
    player.stop();
    if(ctrl != null)
    ctrl.commit();
    player.deallocate();
    player.close();
    ThreadSleep(500);
    if (player==null) {
    player = Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio?encoding=audio/amr");
    player.realize();
    player.prefetch();
    player.addPlayerListener(playerListener);
    is = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    ctrl = (RecordControl)player.getControl("RecordControl");
    ctrl.setRecordStream(is);
    ctrl.startRecord();
    player.start();
    } catch (Throwable e) {
    Once recording is stopped I do this
    try {
    player.stop();
    ctrl.commit();
    player.deallocate();
    player.close();
    Thread.sleep(500);
    if (is !=null) {
    playback= Manager.createPlayer(new ByteArrayInputStream(is.toByteArray()),
    "audio/amr");
    playback.addPlayerListener(playerListener);
    playback.start();
    } catch (Throwable e) {
