Adding Audio from a Premiere Layer into AE for music video

Hello All, My situation is this.
I'm doing a Dance remix Music video. The original song was a ballad. The footage used for the Dance Mix consists of both the ballad clips sped up (ballad music was at 61 beats per minute) and footage shot to the dance track (127 BPM) all of which is Green screen.
The way that I approached it was to put the .wav song on one track in Pre Pro and then I synced up the rough mix edit clips to the main music track, time stretching the Ballad clips, making the mouth movements match and body movements move in rhythm. After I got all my rough edits done I discarded their audio tracks as I thought that I would not need them further, and it was too many tracks to look at (Pre Pre could use a Shy switch). So I ended up with one Audio track and 12 Video tracks, each track containing one pass of the filming.
Then I selected each rough edited clip and used "Replace with an AE composition". In AE I then did my green screen keying. One Scene I created was a composited club scene in AE where the artist is on a stage and there are flashing lights behind her using several instances of CC Light Sweep on a Solid Layer. When I Dymically Linked back to Premiere the light sweeps were not in rhythm with the music as I had no audio to listen to in AE.
Its a lot of render time tweaking in AE and then going to Pr Pro and having to wait for more rendering to see the results.
My Question is how would I go about putting the audio track into the AE Linked comp. The song is over 5 minutes and most of the clips are a few frames to a couple of seconds long.
I think my approach was wrong in the first place and that I should have made an AE project the length of the song and done all my editing and compositing in that one Comp instead of putting things in Pr Pro first, which now makes sense, since I don't see any benefit of being in Pre Pro at this time. And I don't see any way of including part of the audio track when making the AE Linked comp.
Thanks

I don't really get the problem, I must admit. If the final audio exists and the clips have been mangled correctly in Premiere, the timing should match in any case. Why would you even need the clip's source audio? The way to work in AE is to simply create an audio preview and place markers on important cues by hitting the multiply key on the numpad while the sound plays... Everything else shouldn't matter.

Export just the audio track from Pr as a .wav file and then add it as a layer in your AE comp.
Cutting is much easier in Pr, especially the audio. The first time you try cutting audio to video in AE, you'll know what I mean.

How can I move my left over money from my UAE account into USD for my American itunes account?

How do I get the music back on my iPhone after manually deleting it from the device (to get space for photos/videos)?

How do I get the music back on my iPhone after manually deleting it from the device (to get space for photos/videos)? I can sync with iTunes but it doesn't copy these songs back, even though they still appear in my iTunes library. I can click on the Music link under 'On My Device' in iTunes and the missing songs all appear to still be on the device, but they are not. I normally delete using iTunes and do not have this issue. This time I was out and needed more space to shoot photos and videos so I removed a lot of music from my phone through the Music App.

The songs I'm trying to reload on my phone are on my PC. These we had loaded into iTunes. I can remove them all from the library and then add them all back one by one I imagine. The problem I'm having is that I removed them manually from the phone, they still appear in iTunes music library yet they won't sync. I don't want to take the time to compare the phone to my library, remove from the library what's missing on the phone and then add them all back again. 64GB (mostly music) will take a while.

Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and Time Capsule (for music and videos)

Can I use two Time Capsules? one as an extension of my laptop (for music and video storage) and the other one to back up everything from the laptop and Time Capsule (for music and videos)

Not via Time Machine. It cannot back up from a network location.
The 3rd-party apps CarbonCopyCloner and ChronoSync may be workable alternatives.
EDIT: And, if you're going to do that, you could back up from the Time Capsule to a USB drive connected to the TC's USB port. Second TC not required.

CS4 Premiere Pro EXPORT settings for embedding videos in PDF

I am trying to embed a few short videos into a PDF ebook and my PDF file size is massive. I want the videos to still look good quality as I put a lot of effort into making high quality videos for my ebook.
Does anybody have any advice for export settings in Premiere Pro for the use in PDF documents? I've played around with the various preloaded export settings but I'm wondering if I can customize the settings to look good in a PDF.
(I realize Acrobat will convert the video into flash for consistent play-black)
(And not sure if this matters but my current videos are 60fps 1280 x 720 HD shot with a Canon 7D)
All advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Unfortunately, you have posted to the Pr (the precursor to PrPro) forum, so you'll likely not get as much traffic for your thread, as you would in the PrPro forum. Maybe our tireless MOD's can move it out for you, so you'll get more "eyes." Here is the Adobe Premiere Pro Forum.
Good luck,
Hunt
Oops! It looks like Adobe has changed the forum structure on me. Ignore my reference, as things changed overnight. Mea culpa, mea culpa.

Questions on sending audio tracks from a short film into Audition for mastering

Ok so basically I have a 4 minute film in which i need to master the audio. I have a few quesions as to how to best go about this.
1: Some of the clips came with 2 tracks off the camera yet they are both labeled channel 1 on the beginning of the clip on the timeline. Their properties are listed as follows:
Type: Windows WAVE audio file
File Size: 16.0 MB
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 24 bit - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00:00:58:09344
Why are there 2 tracks?
2: Some other audio tracks are just labeled on the timeline as L and R. Both these and the other ones labeled Ch 1 are synced with Pluraleyes from an H4N Zoom recorder so i have no clue why they are labeled different. These one have properties labeled as such:
Type: MPEG Movie
File Size: 69.5 MB
Image Size: 1920 x 1080
Frame Rate: 23.976
Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 16 bit - Stereo
Project Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 32 bit floating point - Stereo
Total Duration: 00:00:14:20
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0 (1.0)
Yes those are audio files on the timeline.
3: What is the general scoops with these multi track audio files? Do I need both tracks?
4: What would be the best workflow to export all the audio clips into Audition and get them back in the timeline? I heard about importing then in Premiere clicking Undo so you don't have the audio track clips as "Audio Extracted" and you retain the originals, but then just replace them with the Audition audio.
Working with sound is not yet a strong point of mine, i am just a video editor but need to get a grasp on properly handling this.

Cameras although they can record stereo audio often only use a small mono gun mic mounted on the camera. The audio menus on the camera give you the option to record either the mono mic to both tracks (ie. Ch1 input to the camrea is fed to both) or as stereo tracks from a stereo mic or as split tracks with onboard mic via Ch1 to track 1 and, say, a radio mic fed via Ch2 to track 2.
Your first files sound as if they came from the first of those options from an onboard mono mic. You don't necessarily need both trakc as they are identical mono tracks in this case.
The second set of tracks were recorded as a stereo pair on the Zoom, hence L and R. They could be stereo or more likely again are double mono tracks where you will only need one of them.
However, depending on the project, it may be more convenient to keep both tracks if any stereo music or effects are going to be mixed in on the multitrack. The final edited video will probably have two tracks on it anyway even if all the audio content is mono.

How to get audio from a tape recorder into FCE?

Hello All,
I have a older Sony TC-D5 tape recorder (the sound recording is still extremely good and, in fact, much better than any of my digital camcorders at 16bit). My question is: how can I get this into FCE4? The TC-D5 has a left and right RCA audio out plugs. If I plug that into the external mic connection in my intel iMac will FCE4 recognize this as an audio source? Is there some other way I'm not thinking of?
Thanks for your help.
Mike

Hi Ian, Martin and Michael
If I understand you, you'd like to shoot sound with your TC-D5, and Video with your Canon HV20 - Correct?
If so, I suppose you're getting better audio quality with the AKG and Tape set up. Of course you'd be limited to shooting where there's AC Power available and logistics with your set up.
In any event, sure I'd give it a try, but as Ian pointed, be prepared to fiddle and jiggle the sound around on the Audio Track to get it in sync. Tape Speeds are subject to change. There are a few tricks you can use to cue your tape recording to when you start filming; (Ian's Tips)
But there are also other methods, (as Ian Pointed out), probably many dozens to choose from. If you're able to use/barrow a mixer you can still use your AKG. Other methods; Using an overhead boom with a really good shotgun Mic. The approaches are endless.
In regard to strickly narrative, I've settled on a combo of both an Audio Techinca Lapel Mic and an Audio Technica Shotgun Mic. You can hear some of this in my trailer below.
Don't forget Michael, as long as you get 'SOLID' audio with strong peaks and no distortion, with minimum background noise, you can always choose dozens of Post Audio applications, (including FC's plug-ins).
Good to see you both again Martin and Ian!

What is the best way to get audio from a regular cd into logic?

I need to get some music of a regular music CD into Logic. When doing something like this on a PC I'd get some third party software to rip the CD and convert into audio files that I'd use in the Daw. What is the simplest way on a Mac?

1. insert CD (der...)
2. open iTunes and click 'inport cd'
3. when the tracks are finished inporting drag them into a play list (just to keep things tidy.)
4. select the tracks you want in logic.
5. drag the tracks where you want them in logic
note: when you drag the tracks in logic will create an overview for the tracks, this could take a while depending on the length of the son.
hope this helps.

Adding data from a text file into a JTextArea

I'm working on a blogging program and I need to add data from a text file named messages.txt into a JTextArea named messages. How do I go about doing this?

then you need to be more specific in what you need help with because those are two commonly used options for reading data in from a file. what have you tried? where is your code failing? what kind of errors are you getting? of course it looks like others in the forum have already reprimanded you for failing to post properly.
i have used both FileReader and the nio package for cfg and ini files which are both just txt files as well as massive data files. so tell me how they dont help you?

Odd problem when adding audio from Viewer

When I load an audio clip into the Viewer, for some reason, in the Timeline there's no indication--on the far left of the TL--that audio tracks are available. Usually, there's 2 little thingamabobs that appear beside the track and you can move them to adjust which tracks will receive the audio clip. Now they don't appear. What up? Did I accidentally hit something on the keys? I can still set in/out on the clip in Viewer and drag it to the track I want, but I'd like to know the answer.

Right-click on the track indicators and choose RESET PANEL.

No Audio From Headphones When Plugged Into The Jack

I have plugged numerous amounts of earphones into my only headphone jack. I know that the earphones work, because when they are plugged into other devices, they work just fine. But, when any earphones are plugged into the headphone jack, I only hear sound
from my laptop speakers that are built in. The sound worked the very first time I plugged in my earphones, but now they don't work.

Exporting from Adobe Premiere CS5 into FCPX

Hi,
I have been given a project in Windows Adobe Premiere CS5. What is the best way to import this into FCPX?
Thanks

Export PPro's XML, run that through the utility app "7toX", open the resulting FCPXML file into FCP X. It won't be 100%, but rarely is XML between companies software 100%.

HT5364 How to optimize the dictation feature using an external device. For example using the audio from iPod to dictate into word.

Dictation feature not writing exact phrases or sentences to the word document. I tried using my iPad, however the text written is 90% incorrect. What can I do to improve that experince. I do a lot of transcriptions and this would greatly assist me.

iPad runs an entirely different opreating system. How it handles dictation doesn't affect how your MacBook Pro handles it. To solve at least the iPad, post here:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/ipad/using_ipad
Is your dictation problem with Mac OS X 10.9.2 on your MacBook Pro as well? If it is, I'll request this thread be moved to the 10.9 forum where more people have experience with 10.9.

Can you import the video from an AVCHD Disc into FCP7 for editing?

Can the video from an AVCHD Disc be imported into FCP 7 for re-editing if you have a normal Superdrive burner?
The reason I ask is because last night our film-making club gave a show of short videos to some guests.
At the end it was decided to put them all on one DVD to send to the visitors as a memento.
However, some of the films were on AVCHD discs and I queried whether they could be copied, even in standard definition.
The "copier" said it was no problem as he had a PC and had done it before . . . . . cheeky devil!
So can it be done . . . . . on a PC or a Mac . . . . with a standard burner?
I have just tried but nothing in the BDMV folder can be imported.

GOT IT!
Copy the BDMV folder from the AVCHD disc to the desktop.
Use HandBrake to convert the .m2ts files to H.264
Then convert the H.264 files to an editable format.
Rather convoluted process but it works.
Anyone know a better method?
