Applying an effects rack preset...

Is there a way to have effects individual windows open automatically when applying an effects rack preset?
I find it most frustrating when mastering for broadcast, where i use an EQ, Compressor, Exciter, Limiter, WLM & PAZ meter in a preset with (to quickly add them all to the rack with a couple clicks) that i have to open each effect from the rack individually, and drag every effect window as they open on top of each other.
Is there a way to change this i'm not aware of? I have the option "Open effects settings when adding effects to the effects rack" selected in preferences.
Thank you kindly.
Matt

The information about how to do this is here: Restoring the default settings for Audition CS6. If you are using a later version you may have to update the number at the end of the path to find the correct folder, but that should be all you need to do, and the correct one should be obvious by browsing.

  • Applying multiple stereo rack presets?

    I'm using soundbooth for the first time and can't figure out how to apply more than one of the stereo rack presets at the same time. I have a piece of audio that I want to apply both the remove 60 cycle hum and remove hiss presets to, but whenever I select one, it removes the other. I can stack other effects in the rack, but the stereo preset fixes don't appear on the list. What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
    Stu

    The Rack presets can't be applied simultaneously - each one is a specific, particular configuration of effects. You could manually add the effects you want from one to the rack preset of another, or more simply, just apply the different rack presets one at a time. In the case you mention, the end results should be the same. Running a hiss reduction prior to a 60hz hum removal shouldn't interfere or cause unexpected behavior.

  • Effect rack presets recordable in favourites

    It would be very helpful to be able to record as a favourite the instantiation and application of a rack effect preset.
    The reason is that a user may audition a series of effects in the rack, before wishing to apply them as a batch process to multiple files.
    Using the same rack preset in a favourite would be much easier than the current method of reopening the effects one by one in the course of recording a favourite.
    Thanks for considering this.

    Thanks, but that's not what I'm getting at.
    I want to be able to apply an effects rack (from a rack preset or otherwise) in the course of recording a favourite.

  • Export Audition CC 2014 Effects Rack Presets

    Hello,
    I have created some presets on the effects rack and I want to export them to another computer. I'm on a Mac right now and can't find how to do it. I've managed to export Premiere Pro Presets that I've created in separate files.

    Re: how do I export presets from audition for another machine?

  • Larger Preset Dropdown Window in MV for Effects Rack

    I do a lot of work in Multitrack and save many Effects Rack presets. The window for the drop-down menu for these presets is tiny! Because the view of the window is not scalable (I can't make the stupid thing any wider) I have to use an annoying type of short-hand typing to name the Effects Presets I am saving. I have to make the preset name fit in the window or else it cannot be read fully when opening the drop-down menu. In fact, the window width is so short that many of the native Audition presets cannot be read.
    This has been an issue since day one of Cool Edit. Please fix this!

    I fully support this one as well

  • Soundbooth CS5:  Effects and/or rack presets for 5.1 audio?

    Hi,
    Are there any Soundbooth CS5 effects and/or rack presets (either Adobe or third-party) for working with 5.1 audio?  I have effects and presets for both mono and stereo, but none show up for 5.1 files.
    Best,
    Chris

    Hi Shawn,
    I understand, but at least with stereo files I can add an EQ, compressor, etc. that applies to all (both) channels.  Is there not a similar capability for 5.1 files?  I don't so much need per-channel editing (I can always split the channels out to separate files in that case), but basic EQ/compression is really what I'm looking for.
    Best,
    Chris

  • How Do You Apply Process Effects To Multiple Clips In A Multi-Track?

    A multi-track sequence brought over from Premiere, I have over a dozen clips from a funeral service video that need noise reduction.
    But, because it's a process effect, I can only work on one clip at a time. Furthermore, I may need to apply several passes of the NR effect to eliminate the noise without sounding weird.
    How then do I apply that effect (and its parameters) to the rest of the clips in the sequence?
    In Premiere, you can copy and paste effects (and their parameters) from one clip to another. There is no such thing in Audition that I can see.

    Hi, Alex.
    It seems you want to do some broadband de-noise processing. While one can do a noisefloor sampling from one clip and apply it to others (great for when you have multiple takes from the same setup), it may be best to noise sample each individually if the mic has moved position enough to cause the tonal characteristics to change.
    An example would be if on-screen talent is walking in an outdoor location. In one part of the location, a particular section of the clip has a lot of BG traffic noise. Another recording has a fountain in the BG - while it still may have some of the traffic in it, the predominant BG noisefloor is "strong fountain/weak traffic", so like others have mentioned, it makes more sense to make a new BG sampling to match the characteristics of this clip.
    All that being said, here is how you BATCH PROCESS / broadband de-noise a bunch of clips, it's a 4-tiered / 21-step process when starting from scratch.
                                  NOTE: there is a manual cheat after the Batch Processing lesson - skip to that if you wish
    (WARNING - this type of processing is most successful if the file has been EQ'd or gain boosted (if needed) before processing. This is also true for the noisefloor sample. It should be taken from the pre-adjusted clip so that it all matches level)
    1) find / open a source clip that best represents the BG noisefloor you wish to sample as your broadband source for processing,
    then in the WAVEFORM editor window press alt-shift-C to save this selection as a new file - give it a unique name that represents its function
         a. ideally, this selection will be more than 5000 samples
         b. should be free of non-BG noise sounds (Dx, footsteps, mouth sounds, it should sound like a very short ambiance loop)
    2) with your new sample saved and your source clip still open in the UI:
         a. load your noise print file
         b. adjust the Noise Reduction and Reduce by  sliders (I suggest you start with a noise reduction value of 100% with a reduce value of 3 to 6 dB)
         c. under Advanced Settings, set Spectral to 0%, Smoothing to 20, Precision to 7, and Transition width to 2dB - these settings
             are like painting not with a wide brush but with a thinner brush, which means less cancellation of frequencies you want to keep and less artifacting
         d. toggle on/off the Output Noise Only function to see just what you are subtracting in your process - a great way to make adjustments until your
             noisefloor-only sound is free of Dx and other Production sounds
         e. optional advanced step - in the process UI Frequency window, you can draw a curve to select the frequency ranges that will be processed - this is another
             way of "thinning the brush" so that you are NOT processing where it's not needed in the broadband range - i.e. hiss from a low-quality mic,
             open the FA window [alt-Z] to see realtime Freq. Analysis on playback of your clip with the processing;
             adjust your settings and the curve in the window to counter the frequency range of the noisefloor - this process is like alchemy, wicked awesome
         f. once you're happy with your settings,  click the Save Effects Preset button (down-arrow on hard-drive) next to the Presets pulldown button.
                   do NOT apply your process yet - that's the next step
    3) now, you're going to create the Favorite that the Batch Process will use to process your clips
         a. select Favorites / Start Recording Favorite (every user function of the software is now being recorded into a macro)
         b. in the Noise Reduction UI, click the Load Noise Print button and select your saved file
         c. now, select your preset from the pulldown menu
         d. click the Select Entire File button below the UI Freq. window
         e. click Apply
         f. click Favorites / Stop Recording Favorite
    4) now, under EDIT, select Batch Process
         a. select your new Favorite from the pulldown tab
         b. drag and drop the files into the Batch window or load them from the Load button in the upper left of the Batch window
         c. click the Export Settings button in the bottom left
         d. set any pre/postfix labeling additions (this works a lot like Adobe Bridge's Batch Rename tool - amending the original filename to differentiate
         e. set a NEW save location to isolate the files
         f. set the format / type / bitrate  (best to keep the original format or a higher quality); when finished, click OK
         g. in the lower right corner, click the RUN button and watch the magic right before your eyes
    [HERE IS THE CHEAT]
    Now that you're learned the magic of batch processing (FYI a new favorite can contain / execute multiple existing effect processes), here is what I recently did in a doc with interview footage - guys in front of a green screen with a less than perfect sound environment.
    1) in Multitrack mode, double-click your clip to process
    2) in Waveform mode, select the noisefloor area to sample and type shift-P
    3) type ctrl-shift-P to open the UI - adjust your De-noise settings for ALL of your processing
    4) type ctrl-A to select the entire file
    5) click Apply; type ctrl-shift-S to save this processed file (I add "_PROC") as an alternate to the original which still exists should you want to go back to it easily - the ALT file will be in the multitrack timeline
    6) type G (de-select I/O area) then type F12 key - returns to Multitrack mode
    7) double-click your next clip to process and repeat steps 3-7 until finished (you won't need to tweak the settings in 3 after the initial step 3)
    In 3-5 minutes, you're Done!
    I discovered another layer of coolness within Audition regarding CLIP Effects Racks where one can setup a stack of effects, save as a User Preset, and apply them to either an individual clip, a set of clips, or to a track.  This is great when you want to apply, for example, a Parametric EQ for filtering an outdoor location or boosting a lav mic's High Freq. Shelf for addition sibilance PLUS a Tube-modeled Compressor to handle dynamics...you spend a lot of time tweaking the settings "just right", and now you want to apply to more than one clip on a track.
    In a short film I'm working on, I use this technique to apply EQ and Room Ambiance (reverb) to camera perspective changes on a single track of ADR for off-camera Dx.  I place the Dx in a track. Splice on the camera edits to make unique clips, select the Audio Perspective preset I made for each camera angle, and Voila!
    Have fun!

  • Is this me or a bug? Loading disabled effects rack wrecks audio!

    Background:
    I am NOT an audio pro, but am an experienced tech guy and have used Adobe suite products for many years.
    Just loaded up CS6, including all updates, on a new decked-out Win7 computer (32G RAM, 12 core CPU, CUDA board, etc).
    I have a clip (96hHz 32 bit) I'm using to learn the workflow I will use for analog->digital conversion...
    There is a musical section in the middle that sounds truly awful with my effects rack in place. But then I noticed I could not get back to the original...
    Symptom
    If I load the audio clip, all is well --  plays as expected.
    If I load my Effects Rack, with all effects preset to be disabled, the sound is immediately and obviously messed up.
    Turning the effects on/off does not fix the problem.
    Questions
    - Is there any reason a set of disabled effects might still impact the audio? If so, where do I find such settings?
    - Is this a likely bug?
    - Anyone else ever encountered anything like this?
    Thanks much!
    Pete

    NAILED IT.
    The following is 100% repeatable for me. Can anyone else replicate this?
    1) Choose 10-20 seconds of music, with a bit of silence before or after (as an audible marker), stereo, 32 bit, 96k -- or even 44.1k although the problem is not as pronounced in 44.1k (see below)
    2) set up to play as a loop
    3) load any of the following into your effects rack. Loading more than one just makes it more obvious.
      a) Adaptive Noise Reduction, default settings, then turn ON high quality and set FFT size to 16384. (8192 is sufficient for 96k, but at 44.1k I need 16384) [This one produces horrifyingly awful results]
      b) Auto Click Removal, default settings, then Threshold 1, Complexity 100 (This one only causes trouble on 96k files)
      c) Auto Phase Correction, default settings, then Analysis Size 4k, Time Resolution 1.0 msec, Response Ultra Slow
    4) BE SURE the effect is turned OFF (but leave the rack on)... or turn the whole rack off. The effect SHOULD do nothing at all.
    Now play the loop a few times.
    Notice the following anomalies:
    A) The cursor tracks (sometimes jumpily) in real time, but the sound is much slower. With Adaptive Noise Reduction @ FFT=16384, I can't really tell it is music... running about 1/10 speed or something
    B) It is as if the on/off switch for the effect does nothing to disable the effect during playback
    C) Your CPU will likely be idling. Whatever is slowing this down is NOT a bunch of processing, but some other kind of overhead/bug
    D) In some situations, I even see the Levels Meter stop moving, as if there weren't enough spare cycles to update it.
    Discussion
    I wonder how many effects are "always active" like this during playback? Right now, I feel I cannot trust this engine to give me reliable feedback for my settings. My suspicion: most if not all effects are at least partly active for playback, even if turned off, at least with respect to the underlying engine.
    It is claimed some of these effects can have performance issues depending on the platform. My platform has far more capacity and speed than required, yet still there are issues. This tells me I cannot trust my ears to tell me if a particular effect and setting is giving me poor results... or if it is just this hidden engine bug causing the sound to degrade. (Note: if I use all three effects with settings as shown, my CPU is running at 11 percent. Not even enough to get the fan going! Definitely not system-limited.)
    If there IS some kind of built-in engine limitation relating to these kinds of problems, I highly recommend that Adobe implement a visual marker to indicate that the effects rack is unable to do its thing in real-time, thus what I am hearing is not an accurate representation of the effects. (However, even if so, I would expect that disabled-effects should not contribute to any performance problem.)
    I sure hope this is enough so others can replicate the problem!
    Thanks much,
    Pete

  • Applying video effects in Premiere at the track or media level?

    Hello,
       I am trying to adjust to the Premiere workflow, coming from Vegas, and have a question regarding the application of video effects. Premiere seems to apply effects at the clip level - for example, if there is a cut in the clip, the effect is only applied to a portion of the clip. Vegas allows for the application of effects at the media level - no matter how many cuts have been made - or at the track level. Is there something comparable in Premiere? I have been trying to apply the Neat Video effect, and the only thing I can think of is to select multiple clips when applying it, but it seems to crash Premiere when I do that. Any advice on making this work would be much appreciated.
       On a related topic, does Premiere apply effects in a chain, as they are added, or does it automatically perform an reffect first if it should be applied first? In other words, does it matter in what order the effects are applied, and if so, is there a rough order of how they should be applied?

    I'm running Premiere Pro 5.5 and have been able to lasso and apply my effects to several of my clips all at once.
    Once you apply the effect and fine-tune (if need be), you can right-click and create a User Preset to help save time (say if all of your clips needed to be color corrected). The User Presets are the first folder listed in the Effects bin.
    As far as the effects order are concerned, you pretty much have to play around with those yourself. I use a Video Limiter effect with a ProcAmp and have noticed that if they aren't in a certain order (the first listed effect is the first applied...) it changes how it looks and not always for the best. Best bet is to play around and see what order of video effects works best for you.
    Good Luck!

  • Is there a way to apply an effect (same settings) on multiple files?

    I think the title pretty much says it all. I know that I can create a preset and for the dozen or so files I'm working with now that's not such a big deal, but if I get work through this client I could be working with fifty or so files and the time to open, add the effect, save, and close adds up fast. I've tried saving an applescript but that doesn't seem to work with applying an effect. Any suggestions?

    Copy the clip with the effect. Select the clips you want to apply it do. Use Edit>Paste Effects.

  • Why does my text disappear when I apply an effect to it?

    Recently, whenever I try applying an effect to my text layer(s), the text completely disappears from the layer and therefore is not showing up when I preview my composition. How do I stop this? I'm using CS5.5 if that helps.

    Just the text in my text layer is what's disappearing. I import my image file, drag it onto the board and then click to add a text layer. I type out my text and then go into the effects & presets, select Animation Presets --> Text --> Animate In -->,Straight In MultiLine, drag the effect into the text layer and then my text disappears, as shown in the second image below  ...This just recently started happening to me and I don't know how to get it back. I'm using After Effects CS5.5. I'm very new at this programs so I apologize for not being able to provide a ton of info...

  • Applying same effect to multiple titles

    sorry for the newbie questions (last video stuff I did was using avid and discreet effect many years ago)
    I've got a load of titles that I want to apply the same effect to (something like a slide direction blur), I've been poking around to see if I can create the effect on a clip, then replace one title with another  OR copy and paste all the clip attributes (including position and transparency) OR create a preset that contains all the effects.
    Ideally the solution would enable me to change the effect and update all the titles.  Is there a way?

    I've got a load of titles that I want to apply the same effect to (something like a slide direction blur), I've been poking around to see if I can create the effect on a clip, then replace one title with another...
    You can do this. Copy the title with the applied effect, paste it elsewhere into the sequence, and then hold down the Alt key as you drag the replacement title on to the pasted title. The effect will be preserved, but the clip will be replaced.
    OR copy and paste all the clip attributes (including position and transparency)
    You can do this, too. Select the clip with the effects in the sequence, either press Ctrl+C or go to Edit > Copy to copy the clip, select one or more target clips, and either press Ctrl+Alt+V or go to Edit > Paste Attributes. All effects and transformations will be pasted to the target clips, without changing the clips themselves.
    OR create a preset that contains all the effects...
    And you can do this, as well. With the Effects Control Panel open, hold down the Ctrl key and click on the names of all the effects you want to include in the preset. Click the flyout menu (it's the tiny four-stack of pancakes at the upper-right corner of the pane) and select Save Preset. I'll let you figure it out from there
    Ideally the solution would enable me to change the effect and update all the titles.  Is there a way?
    No way to directly do this; any effect or effect preset applied to a clip is an independent instance, and is not connected to the original in any way. However, you could use the preset building process I outlined above to semi-quickly update all your titles. If you've applied an effect or effect preset you don't want any more, select all the clips that are thus effected, and right-click on one of them and select Remove Effects. Tick the options that you want to remove. Then, rebuild your preset, and apply it to your clips again; you can apply a preset to multiple clips by selecting them all and dragging the preset from the effects bin. It's a little bit of a round-about way, but it's about the quickest it can get.

  • Apply same effect to a collection of clips?

    I am on Premiere cs6.  I have a collection of travel clips (100+) that were shot handy held and were a little shaky.  I tried using the wrap stabilizer effect on some of them and it helped.  Instead of opening each video clip one by one, apply the effect, and export the result.  Is there a way to apply the same effect on a collection of clips and then export the result? 

    Sure you can.  When you add an effect to the tracks rack, you can reveal an envelope for each adjustment parameter of that effect in envelope section just under the track.  An example of studio reverb is shown below, and by adjusting the wet output level, controls the level of the effect on the clip over time.
    There's a lot to explore using envelopes, and you also change the curve to splines if you wish.
    A lazy mans workaround is to add a duplicate of the clip into a new track with the effect applied (removing or disabling the effect from the other clip), then envelope that new track's volume to blend with the mix, thus achieving a similar effect.  Make sense?

  • Applying one effect to numerous audio files.

    Hello,
    I'm using ST 2.0.2 and would like to apply one effect to multiple audio files.
    I have about 25 audio files (voice-overs and translations for numerous programmes)
    I've used Process>Effects>Dynamics>Compressor to set the level I desire, and have saved my settings in the 'User Presets' box, but it's taking ages to click - click - click - click - click etc to apply my preset to each audio file.
    There must be a way to apply my preset to ALL the individual audio files in one sweep surely?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Probably much too late to be of help to you by now but in case others are puzzled by this +(as I was)+ you simply adjust one audio file using whatever effects etc you need, then go to:
    File > Save Soundtrack Pro Script.
    Then in the FCP Timeline, you can select as many clips as you want to add these effects to:
    Right-Click > Send to > Soundtrack Pro Script.
    All the STP Scripts you've saved will then appear for you to choose from.
    This works exceptionally well - but do not save a script which has been added to a selected area on your original audio file as this causes unreliable results when added to other clips!

  • Applying sporadic effects

    If I want to apply an effect to one part of a clip but not another, is the best way to mult that clip and apply the effect to the mult, or to use the track automation settings?

    You might be best served using Clip Effects Rack for this particular effect, instead of Track Effects Rack.  Select your clip, open the Effects Rack, and select "Clip Effects" at the top.  Add the effects you want in place.  Then on the clip, click the triangle at the upper-right corner and select "Rack Power" to expose the Rack Power automation envelope in the clip.  Use keyframes to turn Rack Power off until the point in time you wish it to be enabled.
