Audio mixing (track not clip) .Precise level entry for KF levels?

Ive done a lot of tutorials on setting and mixing audio levels, both clip and track in PrP 5.5 . I want to know the best way to add a keyframe on the timeline (in track audio mode) and enter a precise db setting. Dragging up and down is pretty random and not accurate, especially when setting levels for 2 mono tracks for stereo.
I am not interested in using the track mixer in live mode because again it is to inaccurate and needs cleaning up. I tried right clicking on the keyframes and got everything EXCEPT the ability for numeric entry. A real basic function for audio mixing.

Well, upon further inspections its the CLIP volume key frames that are displayed in the Audio Effects area. When you are trying to do TRACK key frames on the timeline, its necessary to click on the SHOW KEY FRAMES icon at the start of the TL audio track. When you switch to SHOW TRACK  KEY FRAMES suddenly the clip cannot be loaded in the SOURCE window (which kind of makes sense) and so the TRACK key frames are not visible for numeric entry.
So the problem with no ability for numeric entry assigning key frames a db still exists.

    Yup, tripped across that one a while ago.
    I just gave up on the track approach. Doing it as a clip approach is way easier. I just make the key frame, go the the audio effects window and enter the db level. Done. I did however put in a feature request to be able to right click on any key frame and enter a numeric that way. Im not sure how many other folks are going to request it, but I sure loved and needed that function in FCP and Avid.

  • CS6 Audio Mixer Track Keyframes not Generated

    Hi:  I am using CS6.  I have several audio tracks and started mixing audio using the audio mixer in write mode.  I got a few of the tracks done and it works fine.  I came back today to do the rest and I can't for the life of me get it to write the keyframes.  I have tried both "write" and "touch" methods, but no luck.  I tried adding a new track and no luck.  I tried adding a new sequence and then it works, but for some reason I can't add more keyframes to my primary sequence.  This ever happened to anyone else?  I found a couple indications that it has happened to people but no solutions were offered other than to make sure it is set to "write".  I am aware that this method generates track keyframes and not clip keyframes.  When I chose to see track keyframes, it shows the ones I made yesterday, but is not generating new ones today.  Please help!

    Try:
    Set up a new sequence and copy all the clips / media into it from the original sequence.
    It maybe that the original sequence has recorded a mixer move in Audio 1.

  • CS3 Audio mixer automation not keeping changes

    I'm using CS3 on a Mac.  My current project marks the first time I've done any editing in almost thirty years.  When I opened CS3 for the very first time and did a few trial edits, I was able to adjust audio on the three tracks as I played it back and the changes were saved.  Now that I've finished my 21 minute project, I can't get the audio changes to hold.  I've followed the isntruction in the help file and that I found online, but no matter what automation settings I use, the changes are gone when I play it back.  THere were changes noted in the keyframe timeline for the first couple of minutes, but nothing after; now I've even managed to loose those changes.  Any ideas??

    Hi Tahseen,
    Thanks for your help with this problem.
    I have been using PE since version 5 - a long time!.  I have used  Audio
    Mixer for all those years but I have never had this problem before.
    My video clips are AVCHD video.   My stills are JPG and the  soundtrack
    music is MP3.
    I have a slideshow which is a mixture of stills, video and  soundtrack. 
    During "Expert" editing there is speech on Video 1 so I try to  lower the
    music soundtrack so that the talking can be heard.    Something that I have been
    doing for years.  Using Audio Mixer, I lower the  volume to -18 by sliding
    down the volume slider.  The soundtrack volume is  reduced.  I then replay
    the clip and the sound reduction I have just  carried out has been ignored
    and the soundtrack reverts back to 0 as if  nothing had been changed.
    Can you help me please.
    Regards,
    John

  • M Audio Fast Track not recording in stereo

    I purchased an M Audio Fast Track to use with Garageband.  I'm running OS 10.7.2 Lion.  The M Audio website says its compatible with Lion.  Both my vocals and guitar, bass only record in mono even though I've got the audio input set to stereo.  I set the input in GB Preferences for the M Audio DAW.  The Garageband software instruments record in stereo but they're not going through the DAW.  Am I doing something wrong?  BTW, I'm a beginner so...and help will be appreciated.

  • Unable to set iTunes as the default audio player - do not have enough access privileges for this operation

    I have just upgraded to iTunes 10.5.1.42 (from 10.5.0.143).
    When iTunes is launched, a message from iTunes came up saying:
    iTunes has detected that it is not the default player for audio files. Do you want to make iTunes the default player for audio files?
    [   ]  Do not show this message again
                                [ Yes ]   [ No ]
    Clicking the Yes  button, another iTunes message appears:
    An error occurred while updating the default player for audio file types. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.
                                    [ OK ]
    I found in Googles as well as from some of my own notes dated a few years back which others (and myself) encountered the same problem before. I don't recall what was the solution to this annoying problem. Maybe I should just check the first box and tell iTunes to "shut up"? It seems that iTunes is already the default program designated to open audio files like MP3, WAV or what not. Why does it need to be set as the default player again?
    Come to think about it, I do have a few files with .aup as extension. These were played with "audacity". Perhaps that upsets iTunes player?

  • Vendor Ref No. does not show in Journal Entry for AP Credit

    AP Invoice journals show the vendor reference number in field Ref 2.  However, when creating an AP Credit memo, the vendor reference number does not show in the journal for the credit memo, instead the field Ref 2 is used for the base document number. 
    I have two clients who have pointed out that they would expect to see the vendor ref number in the Ref 2 field in the journal when an AP Credit is created, as this is the functionality for Goods Receipts and AP Invoices.   
    Both clients are currently manually updating the Ref 2 field in the journal for AP Credit, so that in the BP account transactions view they can sort field Ref2 by vendor reference number.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on a work around for this?
    Thanks,
    Lianne Plant

  • SSRS Matrix not showing all the entry for a Column Groups

    I created a Matrix in my SSRS report and for some reason if the COLUMN GROUP has more than one
    entry it only shows the first one and not the second or consequent entries.
    I opened a question in SO and here is the link:
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23248421/how-to-add-column-in-a-ssrs-table-based-on-criteria
    All help is appreciated.

    Hi SiKni8,
    According to your description, you have a matrix report. If a user has more than one start date and end date, you want to put all those start dates and end dates into one single row for this user. Right?
    In Reporting Service, for all data fields textbox appearing at intersection of rows and columns, the matrix will use Sum aggregation function by default. If the data can’t be calculated by aggregation function, it will return the first one of records. This
    is the reason why you only get the first start date and end date for each user. In your scenario, it is impossible to append more columns at the end of the matrix without setting column group. And we can never append columns dynamically based on the numbers
    of the records. So for your requirement, we find a workaround which we think is the most related to the answer you want. We use custom code to get both StartDate and EndDate, then return them as string. After that we append those strings and put the whole
    string into a cell. Your case has been tested in our local environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
    Put the custom code below into your report:
    Dim Num As String = ""
    Dim tempstr As String = ""
    Function AggregateString(Title as String, StartDate as String, EndDate as String) 
    If Title = Num Then
       tempstr = tempstr + "(" +StartDate+" , "+EndDate+")  "
    Else
      tempstr=""
      Num = Title
      tempstr =tempstr+"("+StartDate+" , "+EndDate+")  "
    End If 
    Return tempStr 
    End Function
    In our sample report, we created a matrix based on your description. It looks like below:
    In textbox next to [Title], put the expression below into it:
    =runningvalue(Code.AggregateString(Fields!Title.Value,Fields!StartDate.Value,Fields!EndDate.Value),Last,"Title")
    Ps: In our report, we set the type of date as string when creating table and dataset. If your date type is different, use Cstr() function and convert it into string.
    Save and preview. The result looks like below:
    Reference:

    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • CS6 - how do I adjust audio level part way through a clip using audio mixer?

    Hi there - I'm using the trial version of CS6 and will almost certainly buy it. I've watched lots of the video tutorials but am stumped on this simple issue!
    1. Let's say I have a clip and I want to increase the audio level part way through a clip.
    2. In Example A below I have added a keyframe at the point I want to change the volume.
    3. I then went to the audio mixer and increased the volume level using the slider. But nothing changed on the clip.
    4. The only way I could get it to work was to add more key frames after the first one (see Example B) and increase the volume on the timeline.
    5. This is very fiddly and I'd prefer to be able to do this using the audio mixer. Is this possible?
    Example A                                                                                                              Example B

    With the proper Send settings (Write, Touch, etc., as Craig mentions), you can easily ride the Volume in real-time. I like to add a Numbered Marker to where I want the adjustment to begin, hold, and then end, so that I have several visual clues, besides the aural ones.
    I also have found that the default setting for Audio>Minimal Time Thinning Interval places too many Keyframes on the Track, so I have bumped that up in Preferences.
    Also remember, the Keyframes added with Audio Mixer are Track Keyframes, and not Clip Keyframes. If you were to remove all Clips, those Keyframes would still be there, and would affect any Clips that you added back.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Audio mixer - suddenly volumes are not adjusted

    Hi. PE4. I used the audio mixer in a few project without hassles. In this specific project, I edited the volume levels using the audio mixer successfully. Now I want to make changes to the audio volume but suddenly the audio mixer does not update the audio volume at all. What can I do to get this sorted? Thanks.

    Robert,
    Bear with me on this, as I use P-Pro most of the time, so what I am about to type might not apply to PE.
    On the Audio Track, one needs to set the view to display Track Keyframes. From the Audio Mixer, when hitting the Spacebar (Play) and adjusting the Pot for that Track's Audio, Keyframes are added. In Pro's Audio Mixer, these Keyframes (Track Keyframes, not Clip Keyframes) are only added, when I change the Send to Touch or Write. PE's Audio Mixer does not seem to have Sends. It also appears that the Audio Mixer needs to stay open, though you can make it small and tuck it away. My test of it indicated that when you Close it, the Keyframes disappear. (Can someone correct me here?) I would *guess* that if one did a Save, or Save_As at this point, the Audio Track Keyframes would be Saved. This last step is not necessary for me in Pro, as the Audio Mixer is always open and is just tabbed to another Panel, so it's never in my way. I will experiment with Pro and see what happens if I close the Audio Mixer. It might work the same as in PE, but I have not tried that, since I never close mine.
    One additional note: in Pro, you can set the Keyframe interval for Track Keyframes. I'd guess that you can in PE too - probably from the Preferences Menu. Potting with the Audio Mixer can generate a lot of Keyframes, depending on the interval set. These can be moved around, just like Clip Keyframes, but you'll want to zoom in on that Track to see what you're doing - both horizontal and vertical zoom.
    Hunt
    [Edit] In Pro, when you close the Audio Mixer, the Track Keyframes remain.

  • Audio Mixer Window Does Not Appear

    I have been using Premiere Elements for years in various versions (current project in V8, just downloaded V9 trial. Tonight I went to use the Audio Mixer function and found that when I click on Audio Mixer in the dropdown menu it does not appear. I then downloaded the V9 trial and have the same issue.
    Its hard to believe that I have not tried to do audio mixer functions in V8. But the last time I used the audio mixer in Premiere Elements it was accessed with a small button and worked find. Perhaps that was version 7. I have no memory of when I upgraded from 7 to 8.
    Help! Why will the audio mixer window not appear?

    I tried to access the Mixer from both the drop down menu below the right side panel and top of the interface on 8.0. Then I loaded 9.0. Same test same result first time around.
    Then I read your note and tried both places again and the top of the interface worked in 9.0!  Now both locations work in both versions. Weird.
    Thanks very much for the response.
