Audio preview during capture

Hi
How do I get audiopreview during capture?
When I playback audio output works fine, during capture its off.
When I look in the Audio/Video Settings in the tab Capture Settings I can read in the right summary field that the speaker is off, how do I get this on?

HDV does not allow monitoring audio during capture.
If you are working with DV, there is a checkbox to turn it on. The location of the box varies with the version of FCP.
The simpler solution is to just to route the analog audio out from your deck or camera to a pair of speakers. This has the beauty of not adding to the processing overhead during capture.

Video preview during capture CS3

Video preview during capture is not working even though settings are at preview video and audio during capture.
The work around seems to be to go ahead record anyway (red button) then it works after I paste the captured audio onto the timeline.
When pasting it to the timeline the video appears. The video appears during subsequent captures. It seems like a bug in CS3. This was not a problem with PP 1.5
Thanks

these details will help us help you.

How can I turn OFF audio monitoring during capture from tape?

FCP has a very useful check box that allows you to turn off audio monitoring during capture, so you can listen to other things whilst the batch captures. Is there any way to do this in PP? If not, how can I make a feature request?
I'm using PP CS6.
Thanks for any help.
Dominic

The only other solution I can offer is to go to "edit" "preferences" then select "playback". Under playback set the default audio device to your capturing device instead of the adobe desktop audio. This will allow you capture but not have to listen to whats being captured. However once it's done capturing you'll have to set it back to adobe desktop audio otherwise you can't hear what you're editing in your timeline.
Other than that I'm out of ideas sorry.

Multibridge Pro no audio monitoring during capture

I cannot get audio monitoring during capture, from betacam (component) or dv, I tried everything I can think of, does anybody else is running to the same problem?
(running mac pro, plenty of ram, Os version 10.5.2, decklink software 6.6.2, FCP 6.0.2)
Thanks for any suggestions.

I tried to reboot the multibridge many but to no avail. Regarding the monitoring, I do not really care about monitoring the upload, but I want to be able to log the clip via final cut, and it should work, however it does not.
Also I wanted to know if users of the multibridge have issues with the video levels? I just switch from a HD Decklink card and the difference in level is not right, the multibridge is much to bright. Any suggestions?

No video Preview During Capture

Here is the scoop:
Adobe Premeire CS5
Windows 7 64bit
Canon XL2
Capturing DV NOT HDV
Canon standard device control as there is no preset listed for the XL2
Video and audio actually captures fine. I can hear audio during capture but cannot see any video.
I know there is no video preview when capturing HDV but I am capturing DV.
Again this is CS5 NOT 5.5 so .dll fix is not an option
Thanks in advance.

FIXED!
Heres how it went:
Went to Device Manager and let windows look for an updated driver for my Graphics Card (Radeon HD 4200). Windows said the most current driver was installed. It was NOT the most current driver. I went out to ATI and got the most current driver, installed, reboot and OH JOY! I get video in the capture window during preview AND during capture (of DV)!
I also let windows (device manager) look for updated drivers for sound and it said the driver was the most current. Again, it was not. so the moral of the story is...Don't trust Device Manager on current driver versions.
Hope this will help some folks out there.
Side Note*
Most of us spend hours on forums looking for answers/fixes to particular problems. Most replies I see are either in the vein of "I have that problem too" or " try this, it worked in this OTHER version or try this OTHER software" etc. If you dont have an answer/fix for the problem, dont post.
ON the flip side of that, when posting a problem you want an answer to, Give all the pertinent information in your initial question. " Premiere crashes when I plug up my camera" does NOT suffice! What version of Premiere, what camera, what OS, What kind of connection, etc.

Turning OFF Audio Playback during capture?

When capturing a tape from my video camera in Premiere Pro, How do I turn off the audio playback while recording?
I want to record the audio and the video, but I don't want to hear the tape's audio playing back through my computer speakers while recording. The technician I spoke to over the phone was extremely unhelpful and suggested I simply mute my computer speakers if I don't want to hear it. What if I want to listen to music or am trying to watch another video file in a different program without having to hear the premiere pro audio blaring over it. Please someone tell me the rude technician I spoke to did not understand clearly what I was asking and if anyone knows how to accomplish this or can shed anymore light on the topic.
I just spent 40 minutes on the phone with an adobe tech support rep who took 40 minutes to correctly understand the issue I was calling for and then informed me that the functionality does not exist within the premiere pro software. Sorry if this comes off as a little edgy, but my tech "support" call was extremely frustrating and now to find that premiere pro wont let you listen to anything in any other program while recording seems a little rediculous.
Thanks,

It is risky to run other applications while capturing footage. May lead to dropped frames. I have found that Premiere is a resource hog and more likely to have this problem than other capture programs. Not that Premiere is a bad program for capture, but you might find an alternative that provides a better solution for your specific need.
It has been a few years since using Scenalyzer, but I always found that program to be extremely reliable and flexible. And it has the capability of silencing the audio during capture. Since you didn't say what format you are capturing I can't say whether Scenalyzer will work for you. Check it out.
I don't think Harm was being condesending at all. He is simply warning you about the potential problems your system may face by attempting to multi-task in the manner you describe. It's up to you to decide if you want to follow the advice you seek here.
Good luck

Audio Monitoring During Capture

I have a Mac Mini (2.66GHz; 4GB RAM; 500GB HD) with FCE installed. I can capture with no problem and have audio, too. The problem is that I can't hear the audio when I capture. I have done it before but I can not remember how/what to select to get this "turned on." Help!
Thanks y'all!

Tully,
You really couldn't have heard the audio +from FCE+ during capture. FCE has never done it. You may have heard the audio from the speaker in your camcorder, but not through FCE.
In your last post, however, you indicated that after capturing the clip you can't hear the audio. Is that the problem?

Audio echo during capture CS3

During capture I get this terrible audio echo. If I go into the Windows mixer panel and set a slider called Premiere down to zero that will stop it. But if I then wish to hear the audio (from Premiere) after the capture I have to turn it up again. Sureley this is not the correct way to do it.
It seems as though the input audio is being monitored and the delayed Premiere output at the same time. This will only happen when the capture screen is open.
Anyone any idea how to stop this without constantly playing with the mixer?
Very annoying.

Problem is only while the capture screen is being used. The delay is very pronounced.
So, your Captured footage does not exhibit this echo. Is that correct? Obviously, you have a latency issue. What are your Audio playback settings? I would also wonder about the Matrox card, as these have caused all sorts of Audio issues, though I do not recall any with Capture.
If the first statement is true, then your footage is clean and good, and all you have to do is adjust the necessary settings during Capture.
Good luck,
Hunt

Preview during capture

P.E. version 9.0.1 , operating system Vista 32 . When capture video from camcorder via fire wire , don't have preview , but video and audio captured O.K.
What should I look to solve this?
Ted

Hello again;
I been looking to some sources include Adobe and didn't find nothing about no capture preview in P.E.9. Only in the Read Me file , Adobe mention that some streaks could be visible on capture preview screen due capturing
interlaced footage.However I was successful with capture preview until I get updates from Adobe , updated graphics driver from nVidia and get windows updates. Going further I installed my old P.E.4.0 which I been using for few years and with this program I have preview on capture screen when capturing HD footage.My conclusion: something is corrupted in P.E.9 either to updates or poor writing of the program.
Another issue with P.E.9 is rendering. When I render timeline and save , then exit program and open project again red line above time line is still present. I have to render again to get this job done.
I contacted Adobe about this issue and after several back and for calls answer from Adobe was "this is going since version 4.0 and Adobe is working on this ,and will send you update". It is over year now
and no update resolving rendering problem, but I don't have rendering problem in version 4.0.

Selecting audio channels during capturing

I am in the process of capturing a interview style documentary that was shot with a Panasonic AG-DVX100B. The interviews that were shot on location used a handheld wireless microphone connected to line 1. Normally, I would set the capture setup to only capture line 1 of the audio so that the built-in camera mic on line 2 would not be captured and create an echo. I would then capture the entire day's shoot into one clip. The shoot is about 45 minutes in total.
During this particular day's shoot we shot some footage in the car using only the built-in camera mic. The camera was still set to use the wireless receiver on line 1, so only line 2 has audio (from the camera mic). So as you can figure, when I captured my normal way with only line 1, there was no audio for the car scenes.
The audio from the car scene was recorded fine on line 2 so now I need to come up with a different process for capturing this show... and maybe reconsider the way way I capture all together. I have not started editing so it's okay to recapture at this point.
My question is:
1. Should I capture each of the three locations seperatly with different audio settings and do a batch capture? ie; Location 1 (line 1 for handheld mic) Car (line 2 for camera mic) and Location 2 (line 1 for handheld mic).
2. Do I capture both line 1 and 2 into one 45 minute clip and select the audio channel that I want from within FCP?
3. If answer 2 is the recommendation, how do I do that without having to deselect an audio channel in each edit in the timeline.
Thanks in advance for the assistance!

go for option 2,
you can de-select the errant audio track from the source side when you create your sequence so you don't have to do it to all edits. thats one of the joys of editing!
you may find you have some good sound on the other mike though don't just throw it away
best regards

Audio low during Capture

Hi this may be a dumb or easy question, but I am pulling my hair out trying to figure out a fix. I capture video with good audio levels but when it is captured into FCP the levels are really low. Using gain to +12 does not help. Any suggestions? Thank you!

How do you know the audio was recorded with good levels to begin with? From the meters on your camcorder or through headphones?<</div>
I used both to determine the levels are good.
And how do you know the audio level is too low in FCP? How are you monitoring the audio out of FCP? What's the average level showing on FCP's audio meters?<</div>
I played the video back and listen through the computers speakers, I also look at the audio levels in FCP.
When playing back the tape in your deck or camcorder, do the meters show the same levels as FCP's meters when you play back the clip in the viewer or Timeline? If not, how did you capture the clip?<</div>
No the levels are higher on the deck. I used a DV deck directly into the Mac.

Audio pausing during capturing

I just posted this question, but posted it in the wrong topic...sorry.
Here's my problem:
I will be capturing a clip and in the capture window, it will be playing and then the video will just pause for a second and then keep capturing. Usually I don't even notice it because I am watching my monitor and nothing happens there.
When I put the clip in my timeline and play, it comes to the spot where the video paused and then the audio will be off from that point on and get progressively worse. even if I put a clip I captured without the pause, the audio is still off.
For example, I have a two hour timeline with many different sequences from different projects. Sequence A, B, C, D, and, E were all captured at different times and only sequence B was the one that had the video pause. If I place the sequences in alphabetical order, A will be fine, but B (at the point of pause), C, D, and E will all have audio out of sync.
I am thinking this might be a quicktime conflict? I am running OSX 10.3.9, and use FCO 4.5 and have Quicktime 7 downloaded. I was told that I should have QT 6.6 for FCP 4.5.
Now, I have been trying to reinstall Quicktime 6.5.2, but once the installer program asks me where I want to put it, it won't let me click on my hard drive. It says I don't have an appropriate version on Quicktime on the drive. So I went and downloaded 7 again and it still won't let me reinstall 6.5.
So I guess my question(s) are, why is my capture pausing or stuttering, and then why can't I reinstall QT 6.5.2?
Thanks for your time and help!!

jim,
thanks for the reply. I will check out the QT info...
as far as my hiccup, I use a Panasonic AG-DV2000 deck and a Panasonic AG-DVC200 camera. My scratch disk is set to my third hard drive designated to just my projects and it had 40 gb left. It isn't a timecode break in the tape or dust/glitch on the tape or deck. The tape plays fine, it is in the computer that this happens.
This hasn't always happend to me. Could it be that I have QT 7 instead of 6.5? This is so frustrating because it doesn't happen every time (but most of the time).
thanks for your time,

Missing Audio Playback During Capture?

I'd really like to know why the audio won't play while I'm trying to capture.

There are several things you need to check before capturing. You need to change setting from capture window. Go to capture window Setting Tab and click edit. Popup window will appear, Choose DV if you are Capturing DV Tape, Choose HDV if you are Capturing HDV Tape. If you are capturing through video editing card like BlackMagic, Matrox & AJA select that one. Remember if you are capturing using one of these cards you won't listen audio through PC speakers, you need to connect external breakout cable audio to speaker. If no audio, go to premiere edit menu and then audio hardware and select default audio device to built-in audio driver or video capture Card driver. I hope this may help you.

No preview during capture issue

Hi - I have Adobe Premiere setup to show me the video while it's capturing it form my camcorder, but for some reason it only shows the first frame at that's it. it does capture it correctly. What could be the issue?
Thanks,
Roberto

Hmm. I've not yet seen this issue under these conditions. The Scenalyzer suggestion may be worth investigation. WinDV is another capture utility, not quite as feature rich as Scenalyzer, but it is free.
