Audio levels and panning (duplicating and copying)

My name is Ken ([email protected]) can anyone tell how to duplicate or copy the audio levels in one clip and duplicate or copy it to all the clips at one time or the ones I have highlighted. (I need to do panning like this also). Can anyone help.

Yes. See FCPX Help here.

I no longer have sound when playing my clips through adobe premiere elements 12. How to I correct this problem? I have checked all audio levels and there is no mute on etc. I have updated to 12.1. Still no sound.

I no longer have sound when playing my clips through adobe premiere elements 12. How to I correct this problem? I have checked all audio levels and there is no mute on etc. I updated to 12.1, but still no sound in any clips. Even not on old files which used to work.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 running on? Can we assume that this audio plays back OK
on the same computer when you are using a computer player independent of Premiere Elements?
What are the properties of these clips that worked before but do not know with regard to sound
For now, I will assume that you are working on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
Have you checked the Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings? Do you have any 3rd party audio devices incorporated in your computer environment?
Please delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if that does not work, then the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. The Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit path is
Local Disk C
Users
Owner
AppData
Roaming
Adobe
Premiere Elements
12.0
and, in the 12.0 Folder, is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 12.0 Folder in which the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file exists. Make sure that you are working with Folder Option "Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives" active so that you can see the complete path cited.
Do you have installation files or installation disc with the purchased serial number in case we need to resort to uninstall/reinstall?
We will be watching for your follow up.

Audio Levels and Bins

I recently got a copy of FCE and am still getting used to it. I was wondering if you could change the audio levels in certain points. I've been using premiere for a number of years and on that you can click on the level line which inserts a point at which you can either peak and troughs.
My project is basically an interview with the a band and at certain intervals im inserting live footage. i have a track playing in the background during the interview and would like it to suddenly get louder in the places where theres footage of the subject in action. How do i go about this?
Also i have another Project that im working on which involves my recent trip to california. Basically when capturing my clips i would like each tape to be saved into seperate folders and bins. So in the program i can quickly find my clips which would be in seperate bins DAY1-DAY2-DAY3 etc.
How do i go about doing this also?
Any Help would be much appreciated
thanks

Turn on the clip overlays in the Timeline (Opt-W). Hold the option key and click on the pink audio level line to add a keyframe. Add another keyframe, grab it and pull it down. Not unlike Premiere.
Make a new bin (Cmd-B) and name it. Right-click on it and select Make Capture Bin. Anything you capture will go into that bin. For the next day's material make another bin and set that as the capture bin. You could also just capture the material and move it into appropriate bins.

Change audio levels/pan on multiple clips at once?

Hey folks, any idea if there's a simple speedy way to change the audio level or pan of multiple source clips at once? Not adding a filter etc but just going into clip and making the change, doing these manually one by one right now and would love to find a batch way to do it.
any help appreciated.
cheers, J

Select the level and pan criteria you want on one clip; ctrl+click and select copy. Highlight all of the clips you want to change and then ctrl+click one of the clips and choose Paste Attributes. Select Audio Levels and Pan and all of your selected clips will have the same levels as the original one.
You can also select a number of clips, select from the pull down menu Modify>Levels, and there you can adjust the levels of your audio for all of the clips selected.

M-Audio 1814 and FireWire 800

I am working on a MBP and Logic 8, using the Vienna Symphonic Library on external hard drives, one 250 GB LaCie, the second a 500 GB Maxtor. When I use the external hard drives with FireWire 800 first the Audio Interface starts clicking, using Logic 8 the system crashes seriously. If I use the FireWire Hub on the back of my Cinema Display, the 1814 is not recognized.
For the use of the VI-Library I need fast hard drives, the CPU seems not to be the problem. Why I cannot use FireWire 400 (Audio Interface) and Firewire 800 hard drives?

Thank you Chris, I just wonder why Bee Jay can use the HD FW800 with the M-Audio Firewire interface without problems.
I use the ext HD for backup too, but sometimes I need to find something in my backups and I have to turn off the audio interface and copy the files on my internal HD ... then turn off the drive again and turn on the M-Audio ... it's very annoying.
In some forum I read that the problem can be the firewire chipset, but my iMac has the Lucent and the MacBook Pro has the TI (reccomended by M-Audio) ... same problem on both machines.
I did some test:
1) If I use the FW800 external HD and the FW400 with iMovie and my Video Camcorder I have no problem at all. I tried to use the HD at maximum (during a time machine backup I was copying other files and saving the HDV files in the same external HD) and everything works perfectly without loosing a single frame.
2) If I connect the HDV camcorder to the M-Audio interface I cannot even start the capture ... I have to turn off the external FW800 HD.
It looks that the problem is definitely in the M-Audio Firewire driver but unfortunatley the M-Audio e-mail support is only for US customers ... and I'm Italian.
Is there any US customer that has this problem and can insist with the M-Audio support?
Maybe they can solve it in the next release ...
Thank you in advance.

Audio level higher than needed after encoding

Hi,
I'm editing a film.
Voice over level is set to maximum for most part of it. It sounds as it supposed to sound after encoding.
There are several parts of the film that are supposed to be quiet. They are set as quiet on the timeline and do sound quiet during preview playback.
The problem is after I export the film to mpeg (I've also tried many other formats) the sound level in those quiet parts is automatically raised to very high. Those pieces sound almost as loud as the voice over. Looks like Premiere or Media Encoder have some automated audio level normalization or something like this.
I've tried to find encoding settings that are perhaps responsible for that, and I've also looked up for a solution on Adobe forums -- but I couldn't find anythind appropriate.
I'm using Premiere CS5 on a PC.
Thanks in advance!
This man seems to have the same issue: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/3/906064

Igor,
Always glad to help, even if not directly.
I use MediaPlayer Classic HC for playback testing on the computer, and it seems to handle my Audio better than WMP, and some others. Do not know KM, so cannot comment on it.
I also edit Audio by ear, with but a glance at dB levels, from time to time.
Now, though you're probably way ahead of it, this ARTICLE gives some tips on Audio Levels, and some different methods of adjusting them.
Good luck,

Matching audio levels in disparate clips

Hi. I'm compiling a DVD that has clips from various sources. Some of them are old DVD projects that I've had to extract clips from, using MPEGStreamClip.
My problem is getting a uniform volume setting amongst all the clips: Some are low volume, and some are high (or optimal) volume.
Does DVDSP allow for the "regulation" of individual track volumes? This is vexing me to no end.
Thanks

I had to go back and re-encode to get my levels to match. It was a PITA, but I got it done.
This is a feature that Apple needs to put into DVDSP: the ability to change individual track levels or normalize (set all to the same peak level) all tracks.
When doing a compilation of clips, demo reels, etc., one is likely to encounter all variations of audio levels and amounts of audio-hardware-type compression.
Having to convert an ac3 to QT, or some other format and then re-compress it back to ac3 is going to irrevocably degrade the audio quality.
It'd also nice to be able to do audio and video fades withing DVDSP.

DBFS check audio level

Can anyone tell me how I might be able to accurately check the level of my Audio within FCP 10.1.1 in dBFS and also how to ensure that when I complete a project that my exported (Pro Res 422) version is precisely that level. NB. I don't want to tamper with my audio in any respect (eg. with a Limiter or similar) as I intend making music video clips for broadcast and would prefer not to alter any of the dynamics of the mastered mixes, as well as being certian I am not exceedig the -10dBFS delivery standard required by our local television stations. Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated, have spent ages looking for answers to this.

As a video editor of an advertising agency, and always making TVCs for TV stations, I totally understand your frustration when they insist the required audio level, and I was suffered with this problem badly.
I ended up with not using the audio meter in both FCP 7 and X because they are simply not accurate, or probably even not measuring the things we need, instead, I use WAVES WLM Plus Loudness Meter plug in, and set it to the audio standard suits your station or country, like OP 58 in Australia, etc.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Adj. audio levels - transparent to DVD Studio Pro

I've reviewed posts about audio levels and I understand it must be done outside DVD Studio Pro. I've run into several work-flow bumps that pose these questions...
When I use an app to raise or lower the audio level when I "Save As" or export to match the original parameters (48k, 16bit, Stereo, big endian) DVD Studio Pro will reject the new file (that has been used in the project already) with this error msg.... "file no longer uses a supported graphics format"
What is the fastest and most transparent way to change audio levels? (to aviod this rejection by DVD Studio Pro?) Ideally one would simply "Save" after the adjustment vs Save As or export.
On a related score, other apps allow you to substitute assets. So provided the running time and basic (audio) parameters are the same, can one do this in DVD Studio Pro?
In my haste for a solution in a simple dvd demo reel I was making I was willing to trash the pair of quicktime files (m2 & aiff) after manually purging them form the project, then re-importing and reassigning a new pair that included the adjusted audio. Even in a simple project this workaround was no fun. Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

As this "imported" file is the only thing in it, I'm not sure what multitrack means in this example but I'll experiment. When you say "editor in a new tab" I wish I understood what this "editor" tab is as it does not appear in the pdf manual. Is there another name for this tab-window? Exporting the multitrk proj would put me in the same mismatch pickle I was in to start with.
Thanks,
Paul
This is strange. Are you viewing it in a "multitrack"
project? Once double-clicked on, the file should open
in the editor under a new tab, which has the same
name as the file. In this editor you can perform
whatever is necessary. If this continues to fail, try
exporting the multitrack project with the same name
and file type as the original to replace it. That
will work also. Hope it works this time.

Cannot set audio level to zero

Hi,
I know how to edit the audio levels and have no trouble setting it, from 0% to 150%.
With the video clips this works fine. I can go from complete silence to full volume.
When I try this with an audio only track, I can set the fader from 0% to 150%. The audio gets louder as I increase the percentage. When I set the percentage to zero however, I can still hear the audio. It's softer, but still there.
I've tried using the "fade" feature, dragging the line from starting level down to zero. The audio fades, but not to complete silence. I'd say the level is equivalent to the 10-15% level I get when fading video.
I have iMovie version 5.0.2.
Any and all suggestions appreciated!

Hi,
The audio clip contains only music. The video clip contains only spoken word. It was a good idea though!

After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books. Also I can't edit and copy multiple text messages.

After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books. Also I can no longer edit a and copy multiple text messages like before. Is there a way to do these things I am missing?

Not only can i not see the individual chaptes -- apparently like you and everyone else suffering through the "improved" iOS7 -- when my audiobook repeats a "file" within chapter, which it sometimes does, I cannot get "inside" the chapter and move forward to where I'm supposed to be.
Whatever happened to "if it ain broke.......???

I need to copy audio files and projects from logic to an external hard as my MBPis nearly full and my external hard drive has packed up with all my files on it, any suggestions on how do I copy 200GB from my MBP to a new external HD

I Use logic and back my audio file and projects on an external HD ,this has now packed up . I have all the files in the MBP , but need to copy them to a new external HD, I have only 10GB left on my machine , how do I copy 200GB from my machine to a new External HD.
any helpful full advice would be appreciated.

Yes, just drag and drop them into the drive..
How long will it take? Hard to say without knowing the type and speed of the drives in question.. and even then it's hard to estimate... but does time really matter?
The fact you only have 10 Gigs left will/may slow the process down but it wont/shouldn't stop it...
If needed.. just drag and drop some of the files at a time.. not all of them.
Remember that copying files doesn't delete them from the original drive... You will still need to delete them yourself after they are copied over and empty the trash....
However....
When you saved these projects in Logic (Pro X?) did you save them using the include audio files option?
If not, then when you move the audio files used in these projects... Logic will not know where they are to reload them........ and that will cause you issues.
So.. if you didn't...
I would use this method instead...

DB Copy (MSSQL) between two SAP systems with different level and Components

Hi,
we have a SAP system release mysap 2004 SR1 and for "the upgrade project to SAP ECC 6.0 " we installed a new mysap 2004 in a new hardware (sap03) where we have also solution manager running. The new installed Mysap 2004 SR1 is alos running fine in the new hardware.
Now we would like to do DB copy from the old system (sap02) to the the new system sap03 and then we will do the upgrade to SAP ECC 6.0.
After I compared the two systems I have following questions:
1) there are 4 Software Components which are not in the new system (sap03). This are:
PI
FIN_BLERP
BP_INSTRASS
Is this necesary for the DB copy or we do not need this to be able to do the DB copy?
2) The Software Components Level is not the same. Should we have the same level to do the DB Copy?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
HanseAtik

Hi Juan, hi Clas,
just to be clear and to not stuck on the the way:
The systems are as follow:
1) the source system:
                     - Windows Server 2003,
                     - MSSQL Server 2005 with 32 bit.
                     - Mysap 2004 SR1
2) Target system:
                   - Windows Server 2003
                   - MSSQL Server 2005, with 64 bit.
                   - Mysap 2004 SR1 (with less Support package level and no PI, FIN_Basis, BP_BLERP and BP_INTASS coponents)
I hope this will work. could you post the link the DB Copy guide we are talking about?
By this way we will be sure that we are talking about the same DB Copy. Otherwise any mistake in this step will cost more work and time.
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Body of email is being duplicated when I send attachments and copy someone

When I send emails with attachments, the outgoing message goes out as one email, however, what I type is duplicated. This only happens if I copy someone else in that email (like myself). If I send a message with an attachment and I copy myself, I notice that when I open that mail in a different email application (Eudora for example), the message I sent is duplicated. For example, If I write a message that has "Dear Tom, thank you for writing. Attached is your invoice." and I send that mail to Tom and copy myself, and I open that mail in Eudora, I see that message as one incoming piece of mail, but it has the message to Tom listed twice in that same email. It will only have the attachment listed once, however my message to Tom is listed twice. I am not getting two emails, I am getting one email, but the message looks like I typed the same sentence twice. Now, if I do the same thing, but I don't have an attachment, I do not see the message twice.

Hello, that's a strange one, in Mail>Preferences>Composing>Responding... what all is checked there?
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ does not exist.

I have been editing my films and spent hours fixing the audio levels. Everytime I close and re-open final cut audio levels go back down.

I have been busy editing my film and for the third time now, i have been correcting my audio levels with each clip - this takes me hours - and everytime I go back to the project, the audio levels fall back down. So everything i did previously was a waste of time.
Does anyone have the same issue? Is there anything I am doing wrong here?

Gosh, that sounds aweful close to the same problem people are experiencing with the undo bug. They don't know their having a problme until they hit Command+Z to undo their last change, and they can't, the undo command is actually grayed out in the menu. I understand if this happens, X is not auto saving your changes either. So, the next time you make all of your changes, check to see if your undo command is grayed out from the menu. If it is, duplicate your project to force a manual save. Then Quit X and reopen it and insure you project is intact.
