Audio markers questions

I have a clip that I really want the footage to be exact with the audio. I put audio markers on the audio downbeats. However, is there a way when I drag the video for it to line up with the audio? I hope my explanation is clear.
Thanks!

I answered my own question!

  • Need to Sync multiple images to multiple Audio markers

    Hi everyone !
    I'm using Premiere Pro CS6 (and CC lately). I have a 30-minute audio clip in my timeline with around 200 Markers applied to it (manually entered by me at certain audio points, every 5-10 seconds or so apart roughly). I've also prepared 200 images for my presentation.
    I'm looking for an "automatic" way to drop those 200 images on my timeline and have them "synced" with the 200 audio markers (so each image starts and ends exactly between 2 markers, "snapping" to them, so the images change according to the audio markers - like a "smart" slideshow "synced" to my audio markers).
    I know I can do that manually on the timeline one-by-one for each image ("snapping" to its markers), but I was just wondering if I can do it in a "batch way" or something...
    Could you possibly help ? Many thanks in advance guys !!

    I've just checked it out, great feature! exactly what I needed! Thank you so much Jim!

  • Out of sync audio markers

    Why there are not out of sync audio warnings in final cut x?

    Not sure this is the best place to ask questions about why 'features' are not in the application, but to give you a genral answer from the manual about what I assume you are pondering:
    By default, Final Cut Pro imports audio and video from the same source into one clip. You can easily detach the audio from a video clip so that you can edit the audio clip separately in the Timeline.
    This means that unless you detached the audio yourself, the clip is treated as one source. If you detach it, you are own your own.
    If you are wanting to request a feature of some sort for Final Cut Pro X, try this Feedback Form.
    Best of Luck!

  • Ridiculously simple audio editing question for Garage Band

    Ok, so this is really a fundamental
    question. It concerns editing technique.
    In analog mixing, the editor put
    the sounds to be saved in the right
    places on each of several tracks --
    narration, sound effects, lip sync,
    music, etc. The tracks were then
    all locked together and the mixer
    adjusted the volumes to either save
    or reject audio information.
    A blank master received the information
    and that was your final product,
    in sync, sprocket by sprocket, with
    the video.
    My question, then, is, how do you
    do it in digital multitrack such as
    Garage Band? Are you aiming to have
    4 or 5 tracks all level controlled
    or do you simple erase unwanted
    sound, or what exactly do you do,
    in post production? If you are going
    to do a voice over, then you have to
    do a mix at some point, not just a
    cut and paste. What's the philosophy,
    if you don't mind my asking?
    Thanks,
    Ed

    Wow... you gave me flashbacks to a movie soundtrack I scored, with separate reels of tape all synced up and whirling away for final mixdown!
    To answer your question as best I can in a paragraph or two, digital mixing is unlimited compared to analog. Whereas tape has a physical limit, you can always add another digital track (there are limitations to digital, but they are becoming harder to reach as systems become increasingly powerful). So no need to erase. Editing is also a breeze. Digital tracks are endlessly malleable, with virtually every parameter available for automation.
    Sometimes you might mix down to stems or mix everything down to a stereo master (or alternative mixes) for post production. Similarly, in post, they can deal with huge numbers of digital tracks from different sources.
    In terms of a professional workflow, Logic is the more typical choice over Garageband, and includes a number of features designed for scoring to picture: variable sample rates, frame rates, etc.
    Gain staging in digital recording is different than in analog, and it requires a different approach to achieve excellent sounding results. But the digital workflow is so much more flexible, forgiving, and economical, that it has been the death-knell for the analog workflow. Infinite bussing, routing, mixing, comping, storing, stemming... infinite possibilities, really!

  • Audio out question?

    I just got in my G5 DP 2.7 and this thing is sweet. Now with that said, on to the question. I have a pair of Yorkville Studio monitors that I want to connect to my G5. The Yorkvilles have XLR inputs on them and they are Bi-amped. I do not want to go 1/8" mini to XLR for sound quality reasons. Do you guys know of another way that I can do this, possibly using the optical out to a coverter?? or a new sound card that has RCA's. Then I could go XLR from the d/a box or rca to XLR with a sound card. I was looking at some M-Audio pieces, just a little unsure. Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again in advance for your time.

  • Audio Programming Questions...

    Hi everyone,
    I am very new with audio programming with Java and I have a couple of questions...
    (1) How can I specify a Line from which I can capture audio signal. I want to capture signal from a MICROPHONE and then process the signal (with a FFT function). I tried to use Port (instead of DataLine) and I managed to get the specific port (Port.MICROPHONE) but it seems that port has no function to read from the line. Therefore I assumed that the only way to capture and process audio signal is through DataLine. However I cannot specify the line. How can I do that???
    (2) Is it possible to capture and process audio signal through Port??? I mean can I read bytes from a audio stream and write it to a TargetDataLine???

    Hello!
    There is a Java Sound mailing list. You would get more response from those subscribers. You can join it from here: http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/sound/list.html
    Hope that is helpful.

  • Audio on Question Slide

    Hi,
    I am building a program where the participant listens to a
    conversation and then has to answer questions about what he/she
    heard. I would like to add a button to the question slide called
    "hear it again" where they would click on it (or rollover) to hear
    the audio track again. In a regular slide I would add a Button but
    that option is blanked out on the question slide. Anything else
    such as a caption, automatically plays the sound track.
    Help! Anyone have any ideas about this?
    Thanx in advance!
    Gary

    Hi again
    No, you aren't doing anything wrong. That's the way rollover
    Images and Captions work. They don't display until your user mouses
    over the rollover area. You asked for something that could be
    clicked or rolled over to hear the audio track. Since clickable
    items are a no no in Question slides, the rollover is your best
    bet.
    Note that you don't need any Image or Caption to actually
    appear if you don't want that. Just use an image that's a solid
    color and set it as transparent. Or, for a caption, set the caption
    as transparent with no actual text. The key is assigning the audio
    to the Image or Caption itself and not the rollover area.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Distributed Audio Processing Question

    This is probably a dumb question, but would there be any value in using a Mac Mini (or multiple Mini's using a switch) for Distributed Audio Processing? I tend to favor complex reverbs across my mixes and will be using some software instruments and would like to reduce/prevent the processor hit as I'm on a 2.4GHz iMac. I'm running 4 gigs of RAM so memory shouldn't be an issue.
    Yeah, I'm a Logic noob, so please be kind if this is a moronic idea :-p

    Hi.
    Interessting Question. The macmini must have an intel core cpu and gigabit ethernet. The older models don't fit the specs for Logics QNode wich is needed, to let the iMac do distributed audio processing on the macmini. Additionally you have to connect the two macs with a gigabit network.
    http://www.apple.com/logicstudio/logicpro/specs.html
    But i think there are better ways to fit your audio-needs. If you haven't bought the minis yet, buy an MacPro for this work and if this machine even aren't fast enough, then let the iMac do the distributed audio processing.
    Additionally power can added to the MP with an Universal Audio DSP-Card.
    http://www.uaudio.com/products/uad-dsp_menu.html
    I don't know how your workflow looks like. If you don't need the effects at the same time you record the virtual instruments, then do all the processing after the recording. This way should be the cheapest and best.

  • Imovie6/itunes audio level question

    i'm cutting a piece in imovie6. the audio attached to the video clip was recorded rather low, not too low, but a wee bit an the quiet side. i want to boost and level off the audio. on several boards the suggestion was to send the audio track via the imovie/ilife share menu to garageband where i could boost the audio level while adding a dose of compression to remove some of the now raised noise floor. i have tried this 2x and have not noticed/heard the difference (which should have been apparent). after garageband the path back to imovie6 is via itunes. in itunes i have been able to successful boost the audio via the get info box->options and raised the levels while also incorporating the "spoken word" setting in the equalizer.
    the question is: are the itune "changes" on the audio track or only via itunes playback? in other words, if i burned the louder audio track to a cd would the itune "changes" be there? or will those "changes" only be present when i play the track thru itunes.
    i hope my question is not too confusing.
    thanks in advance to those who care to share.
    be well

    I've not tried this and my system is busy, but...
    Have you tried panning the first clip to center, then control-click on that clip, choose 'copy', then lasso the remaining clips, control-click, paste attributes?
    Not sure it works for panning audio, so let us know.

  • Separate Audio/Video Question

    I'm in the midst of transitioning from iMovie/iDVD to Final Cut Studio. In the last chapter of FCP6: Beyond the Basics, I sent a sequence to Compressor and generated an Audio file and a Video file. The book didn't really say anything about what happens next. I tried it with my first FCP video, (which I had previously simply exported as a QT file and dropped into iDVD, and as I write this I can see that it processing a Dolby Digital file and an MPEG-2. Admittedly, I haven't cracked the book on DVD Studio Pro yet, in fact, I haven't really opened the app except to glance at the interface, and my question will probably be answered there, but what's going to happen next. When I open up DVD Studio Pro, will I be selecting both of these files for the project and then they'll just automatically sync?

    Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
    Let's keep this thread focused on the dialing issue, and I suggest you take up the picture/messaging issue in a separate thread in the Audio, Video and Photos board.
    First question is whether the phone has behaved this way from day one, or if it just started after working correctly for a few weeks. You could try soft-resetting the phone...remove the battery and wait a minute, then reinsert, start it up and try again. If that doesn't work, a Hard Reset might be in order, which wipes everything clean and lets you start over. This can correct issues relating to corrupt data or conflicting third-party applications which may have found their way onto the Centro. This article discusses the various types of Reset for different Palm devices.
    After the Hard Reset, do not synchronize the phone with your desktop. See if the phone works normally.
    Another issue might be a bad SIM card, but I don't know enough about that...the folks at the AT&T store should be able to verify whether the card is good or not.
    If all else fails, return it to your AT&T store for a replacement. AT&T has a 30-day return policy for any reason.
    Good luck, please let us know how it turns out.

  • Video/Audio Delivery Questions

    Hi Everyone-
    I'm really excited about the possibilities of Adobe AIR,
    specifically to further our vision of desktop, content rich apps
    with video/audio, as well as taking that capability to digital
    signage.
    Just a few questions:
    - Does Adobe offer an 'out of the box' solution like they use
    in the Media Player?
    - How difficult is it to develop an AIR app similar to the
    examples by AOL and Yahoo?
    - What experience will developers need to create it?
    (laungauges, etc.)
    Any help you can provide is appreciated. This ia a great
    technology we'd like to take advantage of.

  • Audio input question

    Hello,
    Day three of imac here. I have this cd recorder (stand alone home stereo style) which records cd's that NOTHING else will read. Not even my beloved new imac. My question is , if I plug this recorder into the input will I be able to rip these cds into either itunes or garage band?
    I figured I would throw this to all of you before I go plugging things in all willie nillie.
    Thanks,
    Carl

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    You will need a software program that can record the incoming audio stream from your input port. Audio Hijack or Audio Hijack Pro should fit the bill.

  • Live audio capturing question

    We're using Reflectmedia and a Ultimatte DV. Since the ultimatte DV only captures either S-Video and output Firewire, we have no audio. Therefore, when the receiver of the wireless mic is connected to Digidesign M Box 2, I can hear it on the speaker. However, I can’t seem to log and capture the audio in on Final Cut Pro HD. Is there a way to log and capture the audio using a wireless mic?
    I setup the Capture setting to use the MBox2 instead of the internal audi, or DV Firewire.
    FCP sees the DigiDesign interface in the capture setting. I think that DigiDesign limits the abliliy to record from FCP. However, if FCP is actually recongnizing the interface, why couldn't I use it to capture audio from usb (MBOX2)while video from another firewire source, Ultimatte DV.
    The problem here is, I'm attempting to "Log and Capture" the Ultimatte DV (whick only processes video and not audio), through firewire while I capture audio through another source.
    Thanks for all your effort

    It would be very nice if you people could share some thoughts on a little problem I have.Sure thing.
    I'm gonna try and capture audio from a flash-application (www.delorean.se/mixer) and convert it to a .mp3-file.
    I browsed the web for a few days for a solution and first thought of using The Java Soun API but later read that it doesn't convert to .mp3 :(
    I managed to read and create .wav files with it and it wasn't too difficult at all so it was kind of sad that there's no .mp3 support
    Then I found JMF and saw that it has a mp3 converter plug-in :)Technically, no. JMF has an MP3 plugin that allows JMF to play MP3s, but the plugin does not allow you to create MP3s. Actually, the same plugin allows JavaSound to play MP3s too..
    [http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/mp3/download.html]
    Would the JMF be a good tool to use for my problem?No, because you cannot encode MP3s. Only decode them...
    Does it work like Java Sound API?Not at all.
    Does anyone have any general tips when it comes to capture audio from the web using java? (It feels like I've looked over the whole web and I didn't find anyone trying to do the same thing or someone who has done anything similar in the past)Capturing audio is easy. JavaSound + applet...but if you need to store it as an MP3, you're probably going to want to build an Adobe Flex application.
    Adobe Flex is their free API you can use to build Flash applications. Google it.
    I would be so very happy if I could get some answers on these questions! Be happy. :-)

  • Another problems with Audio importing question

    Ok, I've read through lots of the other questions but haven't found my answer. I have a Sony camera that I'm importing some video from. I've done this often with recorded video into iMovie with no problems.
    I just downloaded a show from my DVR to my camera. No problems, audio is fine. I'm not importing this show to iMovie. When I import, the audio is fine both coming out of my camera, and in iMovie. But once the import is finished, the audio is really really quiet. If I crank the volume all the way up, it is audible, but barely.
    I've checked the 3 audio checkboxes, turned all the volume sliders up, made sure in my preferences audio filtering and 'play video to camera' are turned. But still no luck.
    Any thoughts? I'm a MAC newbie so go easy on me. Thanks!

    Thanks for the replies so far. My camera is set to 16 bit audio. I'm not sure if the DVR has an audio output setting but I will check.
    But I don't feel like this will be the problem, only because when I'm importing the movie into iMovie, it plays at normal volume, through both left and right speakers. Its only when I am done importing the movie, and try and replay the clip I've just imported where I lose 95% of the sound and its barely audible. I feel like something is happening within iMovie. That make sense?
    As I said though, I'm far from knowledgable about this stuff.
    Thanks!

  • Audio Editing Questions In Final Cut Studio 2

    Hi,
    Thank you all again for being here!, I have some quick questions about working with audio in fcp 6.02, and Soundtrack. first of all I am wondering if its easier and quicker just to work in fcp with audio, or export to Sound Track Pro? I have a wedding I shot and I had my cam recording 2 different source of audio, one from a balcony, and the other on the floor with different sounds to them. What is the best method to get them to sound nearly the same? In Fcp apply a "Normalization Gain"? I am new to audio editing, and somewhat with FCS, in general. Also in the timeline how can I get all audio clips in sync with the same volume? I was amazed with Soundtrack Pro's ability to take out ambient back ground noise and inference any other trick to get rid on unwanted inferences? Your Idea and experience are invaluable!!!
    Thank You All Again, Tim C.

    The reason you may not have gotten replies to your "quick questions" is because there are no quick answers. It is certainly easiest to just do the audio in FCP rather than export to STP. If your needs are simple just stay with FCP. However, you mention specialized tasks that STP can do but FCP can't. I am grappling with these same issues. I am a Logic Pro user and it gets very confusing about what tool to use when.
    My main message to you is that I just purchased the Apple Pro Training book FCP 6 Beyond the basics and there are 90 pages in two lessons devoted to exactly what you are interested in. I bought it just yesterday and it has already helped me in a number of areas.
    Good luck.
