Audio Clips de-normalizing after program shutdown

Recently I have been having trouble with my audio files in Adobe Premiere CS6. I will normalize all of the audio clips in my track(s) and everything will be fine. I will then close the project and come back to it at a later time to find that most, if not all, of the audio has reverted back to it's de-normalized self. I am saving my projects actively so I know that is not the problem. Has anyone else discovered this problem? And if so, did you find a solution?

Yes. For example: Clip A will have a peak amplitude of -13.9db. I'll normalize it and it'll adjust to -7db. Save the project, close out, then come back a couple of days later and Clip A will have reverted as if I never normalized it. However, not all of my clips will revert. Some will remain normalized so I have to go in each individually and normalized it again, rather than being able to select all and normalize. Is there any other alternative to normalizing a clip, or even an entire sequence, other than my process and the "Normalize Master Track" option under the 'Sequence' tab? When Normalize Master Track I receive an error message "The selected audio track cannot be normalized to the requested level because it would require track keyframes greater than 0 dB."
I'm new to Premiere. Just made the switch from Final Cut and Avid over so I'm still unfamiliar with several things.

Can't Move Audio Clips in Timeline After Expanding to View Waveforms (Premiere Pro CC 2014.2)

So, this seems to be a bit of a weird one, and I'd be pretty stoked if it ended up being something silly that I'm doing wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure out what that might be.
As the title suggests, I can't use the mouse to move some audio clips in a timeline once I expand the track to view the waveforms. This appears to only happen with independent audio clips (WAV. AIFF, MP3, etc), and not with clips attached to video. Also, it's worth noting that I don't have track keyframes turned on. I was hoping that was it, but it wasn't.
So, what happens is this:
1) I drag an audio clip down to the timeline (I can drag it onto an existing track, or drag to the bottom of the sequence and create a new track. Neither option seems to get a different result.).
2) So long as the track isn't expanded and the waveform isn't visible, I can move the clip left, right, or up and down to a different track.
3) As soon as I expand the track to view the waveform this functionality goes out the window. When this issue happens I can use the keyboard to nudge left and right, but that's about all the movement I have.
4) It's almost as though the track becomes corrupt. The lanes for the track don't redraw properly, and the track is pretty much unusable. I can't put anything into it, and I can't take anything out. All I can do is delete the track and start again.
Complicating issues is that this doesn't always happen, but instead is one of those "vast majority of the time" issues. I can't see any rhyme or reason for why it works or doesn't. I seem to do the exact same thing, but occasionally get different results. It doesn't matter what type of file I'm using (WAV, AIFF, etc), and this only happens with independent audio clips.
Once again, I don't have track keyframing turned on when this happens. Believe me, I wish that was it.
I have already filed a couple of bug reports about this over the last month or so, but haven't heard anything yet. I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issue, and if so, whether they had any workarounds.
Mandatory system info:
Windows 7 Professional SP1 (64-Bit)
Intel i7-3820
32GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 980 (350.12)
Premiere Pro CC 2014.2

Update:
I was just looking to post a screenshot of the timeline when I discovered something interesting. As soon as I use the vertical scroll bar to the right of the sequence, the tracks start to work again. Close off the waveform and the clip goes haywire. Move the scroll bar a tiny bit (or a lot), and suddenly the clip starts working.
Pretty bizarre.
The good news is that for the time being that could be a workaround, though it would be great for this to not happen at all.

Audio clip plays normal in Media Browser, but imports as "clicks" in session after saving & reopening.

This problem has happened with almost all of my large Audition projects. File links are intact & properly managed, and most audio files play as expected. However, some files in the session get replaced with this "click" track, for lack of a better way to describe it. The audio is literally replaced with a repetitive click, or pop sound, as you can see in the image below:
Both tracks had waveforms like the top track, but now the second track has been replaced with clicks.
The strangest part: The file in question, in this case: "Grass" (downloaded directly from Youtube Audio Library, so, not corrupt) previews perfectly fine in the Media Browser window. In the File Browser, however (tracks actually used in the session), it previews as nothing but clicks. When I try to then replace the track in the mixdown / file browser with the seemingly uncorrupted file in the Media Browser, it comes in as clicks!
The only thing I can think of is that the analysis files associated with the project are getting damaged?
Please help!

Can you send a copy of the Grass audio file to [email protected] and we'll take a look?

Audio clips "magically" shrink after split

Phew... Sick and tired of being sick and tired. I am working on editing a JFK speech. You know simple, granpa stuff. No rocket science,no writing code. I get the bits I want, spilt them at the playhead.Then I put them aside. I play with other bits that I want to splice in. Then when I go back to my first bits of speech, I find that the tail end of the JFK sentence is missing. Again and again and aga. Surely it must be me. Of course, by why can't simple be simple? Thank you for laughing.

I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days?

I ordered the full creative cloud on sunday and received an order number but still can't open any of the programs. When i check the status of my order online, it says it can't find it. Is this normal after 3 days? I tried asking in a chat window instead of the forum but no one answered and after about ten minutes my screen restarted and closed the chat window down. It seems a little frustrating not knowing what happened to my order and not being able to contact anyone. Is all this usual with Adobe or are they just having technical problems this week?

Audio clips cutting off at the beginning, after replacing audio.

I have received an fla for a complex game, and have been directly replacing the audio clips in it with new ones with the same file name. The game randomly chooses themes, displaying text and a corresponding audio clip. After replacing the old files with the new ones, out of 20 audio clips, about 6 of them get cut off at the beginning. There is no discernible difference in the length of the clips, or empty space at the beginning between the original audio files and the new ones.
Is it possible that there is something happening in the actionscript that could be causing the problem? The fla calls a file calls Themes.as, this is the code in the file, case the answer is in there somewhere:

If you have not upgraded to version 7 you should do that.
If you have upgraded to Version 7, be sure to do the updates to 7.0.5
Go to the Help menu and select 'About Adobe Presenter' to see what version, if it is 7.0, to 7.0.2 you need to update it
drop down the help menu again and you will see an 'update' option.
you need to install in order - 7.0.1, then 7.0.2 then 7.0.5 - you cannot install all at once
another thing you might want to do is open the file you are working on in 7.0.5 snd save it out with a new filename in a new location to combat that pesky problem of the 'media.ppcx' file disappearing....

Crashing after adding audio clips

So I have had to rebuild my 50 minute vacation movie 3 times now due to the files become corrupt after adding audio clips. The audio clips are legit and not just downloaded from a random site. Happens with different songs not just particular ones.

Here is a good tutorial for how audio works. In your case, you want to drag and drop the music track on top of one of your video clips at the frame where you want the music to begin.

Wine: audio clips in some programs

Hi,
I installed wine for kicks so I can throw out Windows. I found that some apps in Windows that play sound have their audio clipped, while others (I tested with Winamp) is perfectly fine. I tried all 3 audio drivers (ALSA, OSS, Jack), and I have alsa installed. Is this common or the way this app is coded? Any way to fix it?
Thanks.

Does it happen often with the same applications?
Do you have 'Full' hardware accelerated sounds on in your winecfg?
Do any audio specific errors or warnings come up in the console when running wine?
There are a few programs where I have sound issues that are unavoidable, but the vast majority of them work fine.

Having Audio Continue to Play AFTER the Clip Has Ended

I am very frustrated with iMovie '09 mainly because of the audio, I have a .5 second video clip and a 1 second audio clip, but for some stupid reason it decides to cut the audio clip to fit the video clip and i cant change the length of the audio clip. I want it to play when the clip starts and even when its OVER. Is there any way to change this or should I just stick with iMovie HD?

Drag a still with a black background into your project at the length you need and the sound will not be truncated. You can do this from the titles pane. Drag a title into the project after the .5 second clip and set it as black background.

Why would dragging certain audio clips (or cutting said clips) cause program to crash?

Amateur Doug here!!!
In CS 5.5, when I highlight and drag some audio clips, the program freezes and won't shut down unless I power off. Ditto when I cut the clips to paste elsewhere.
I rebooted, same result.
I made a duplicate sequence same result.
I tried to cut the clips, same result.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated, because each experiment requires waiting for computer to reboot so it might be days before I find a workaround...

I got help for this issue over at CreativeCow's FCP pages -- it turns out, all I had to do was open a new project using an easy setting and project setting for vanilla PAL 25 fps SD stuff. All of the audio was correctly brought in -- then I disconnected all of the clips, made them dual mono, reconnected them, and copied them over to my old gristly project folder.
Now I can marry these dual mono 25fps files to the video files without having FCP incorrectly compensate for "30fps" by speeding these clips up slightly, so things stay in sync.

Macbook air dont awake normal after shutdown or sleeping...

after installing mavericks my macbook air 2012 midi have 2 problems
1. after a shutdown is it unpossible to start the macbook air normally. Only after pressing more than 10 seconds the startbutton and a second normal push on this button start the book!
2. the same problem is coming up the slee mode.
I think the is no image produced for the start or wakeup process.
I cant see the rotating cursor a the monitor by shutdown process.
Who can help??

If it disconnects, you can use the icon in the menubar to reconnect rather than restart.
If the icon isn't in the menubar then go to System Preferences > Network > Select WiFi on the left > check "Show WiFi status in the menubar"

Trouble loading audio clips after frame 1

Hey, everyone!
The project I'm working on consists of a bunch of pages, each with narration. Each page is a separate frame on my main timeline. Due to all kinds of issues I was having, I am now loading in the audio via actionscript, rather than placing an instance of it into an object and going from there.
The issue I am now having is that when I tried to simulate a download, the movie would sit on frame zero until all audio was loaded, so it took a long time to get to my preloader, and by then the movie was just about finished loading. It was suggsted that I uncheck "export at frame 1" on my audio files, but now I am getting errors that I am making a call to a possibly undefined method (random audio file name of choice).
If I am loading my my audio via actionscript, do I have to load it all in on frame 1? And if so, is there any way for my movie to get to my preloader before trying to load things?
I have also tried setting my publish settings to export my classes on frame 2 or 3, in the hopes of it getting as far as my preloader before stopping, but no luck so far.
Any ideas?

I'm not sure I understand that last part --
Here's my setup:
I have my raw audio files, which are each linked to separate classes, named Frame1, Frame2, etc. Those classes are then called from separate movieclips (which also contain some actionscript to cue things in the movie at the proper time, etc).
So, do I put every movie clip that contains the call to the classes (the movieclips that are actually used in the project) on frame 1 (or 2, or whichever frame I have it exporting classes from), or do I put all the raw audio clips on that frame, or do I just write in code to have random varables call in each class name...?

After Effets, audio clip won't play in multiple comps

Hello, I am currently working within AE CS3 and am experiencing a problem.
I edited an audio clip within AE and pre-composed those 4 Layers.
When I copy and paste a section of this audio pre-comp into a nother comp (in order to sync animations to audio only using the section of audio that is relevent to the section I'm animating) it shows up in the layers panel but is "greyed out" in the timeline and will not play.
However if I copy and paste the audio pre-comp in its entirety, it plays with out a problem.
This means that I'm having to reedit the audio pre-comp to time up with the "Main" comp
everytime I bring it into a new comp.
I know there's a solution but I've been strugeling fruitlessly to discover it.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I don't quite follow. Unless you "chopped it up" by splitting the layers or pre-comp, there is no way to just paste sections - you always copy&paste the entire layer(s). when you do, it is no different than with any other layer - copy&paste retains the temporal alignment of the selections relative to the current time indicator (CTI). So if your time is different between comps, the pasted content will be inserted at different times, which could mean that content ends up outside the comp duration and you only see "empty" tracks. So by all means make sure to correctly sync the times of the comps.

Clips turn black after I synching with audio

When I import my synched footage from Pluraleyes to FCPX the audio works but not the video and it's black. The same thing happens if I just try the nattive synch tool in FCPX.
All my footage is off a 5D Mark3 and recoreded to WAV on a ZOOM h4N.
Steps already taken:
- Check Video Inspector
- Checked boxes in ROLES
- Clossed all apps and removed prefrences with manager

I tried your example and have good news for you :-)
You are *assuming* the clip is black, but it isn't.
The problem with your example is that the audio clip is 6:24 long and the video is only 00:41 long.
Furthermore, the actual video only begins around the 5:30 mark.
Nevertheless, they sync PERFECTLY!
Here is how the synchronized clip looks in its own timeline. Note how the audio starts at the beginning but the video only starts at about 5:30.
You can add this synchronized clip to your project timeline and trim it there, or mark the in and out points in the event browser.

How do you allow an audio clip to keep playing after a video clip fades out at the end of an iMovie? I want the audio clip to fade out later... this used to be easy in an older version of iMovie.

I just updated to iMovie 11. I want the final music to play beyond the last video clip and fade out. How do I do this? Do I need to import a black screen?

Yes, I've done this, but I can't figure out how to get the audio to fade. I think I need to explain further. This is really a simple movie made from multiple photo stills from my son's school. There are cross fade transition betwee the stills, and some titiles that cross fade too. So there is not actual video. Thus everything shows only in the project library, where I dragged in the photo stills to import them. There is nothing in the event (or is in the clip) window in the bottom. I can't figure out how to get the volume lines to show for the audio clip in the project library as they did in the old version of iMovie so I could drag them up or down.
