Audio sync when exporting to Audition

Let's see if I can explain this...
If I direct link a sequence from PP to Audition and the bring in a rendered mp4 as a reference (both 48khz), and put the audio from the reference vide on a separate track. There is a slght offset (around 4-5 ms) causing an echo when I play the reference audio and the audio from the direct link operation at the same time. Get the same result if I bring in an omf and the reference movie into Logic Pro X.
The reason for bringing in the reference video with sound is that I want to double check the sync.
I have a musician and audio background so I might be a bit picky with sound....
How do I remedy this without nudging the audio clips? I there something in the export of the reference video that I might have missed?
I am running the latest version of all the Adobe applications and using a MacBook Pro early 2013 15" 16GB and GeForce GT 650M and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.
Audio Interface Saffire PRO 24 DSP
Thank's

Additional information: The format of the clip I have used as a test is ProRes 442 48KHz 16-bit stereo

Audio Sync when Exporting Using Compressor

Hello!
Having an odd situation. Project in FCP 4.5 the audio is sync'd just fine in FCP export using Compressor and the audio is delayed about 5 seconds...so the video footage starts and about 5 seconds later the audio starts. Now, in the same project I have other footage and exported the same exact way without issues - I have no idea why this particular footage would be an issue! Because Compressor is exporting these files with the audio and video as separate files I am seeing this issue when the file is in DVD Studio Pro - but again none of the other files that are being placed on this DVD are having audio alignment issues...so this is not making sense.
I am not 'new' at this but I am no expert either - my main gig is audio - so I could really use some help.
Any suggestions? I am not sure what other information someone would need to help so ask away.
Thanks in advance!

Well I REALLY need some help with this one! I have tried so many different 'work arounds' without success. As mentioned in my first post the audio is not sync'ing with the video when exported. I have tried Exporting the file in QuickTime, I have tried using Compressor again exporting just the video then the audio - pulling it into a new session and lining it up again but everytime I pull it the newly exported file into a new project and render it FCP crashes not allowing it to render (nice!). I actually started from square one capturing the video footage again and assemble the project again without luck. I simply cannot believe what a pain in the arse this is!! I need to get this project done and it simply won't do it.

Audio and video do not sync when exporting

the audio and video content do not sync when exporting to media browser or quicktime.. at times the audio is delayed, or ahead of the video

Wow, I was just about to post something similar. I've tried 4 different times, wasted a few dvds, and tried various ways of outputting to solve this...nothing. Here's my situation;
• I have a series of stills, with music underneath...kind of like a slide show.
• That ends, both music and visual, and I go to a black screen/slug that is :22, to give some breathing room before the video that follows. Also, the audio track fades out at the end of the stills...it does not continue into the slug.
• After the :22 of black, I fade into a video. HOWEVER, everytime I've done that, the AUDIO portion of that video is starting while there's still black on screen, then when the video comes in, it's way behind.
I've adjust the audio to now end before the slug, thinking that was somehow making iMovie go wonky. Didn't work. I've wasted a few dvds before I got smart and started checking before burning. And still, everytime, that section is not syncing, but, i syncs in iMovie, where I made the video.
This is HUGELY frustrating.

Loss of audio sync when importing Samsung Galaxy 2 (GT-I1900) video to Premier Elements 10

I am loosing audio sync when I import video from a Samsung Galaxy 2 GT-I1900 phone even when using settings chosen by Premier Elements 10.
The file plays OK in Windows 7 media player.
I have tried using both direct import from the phone and transferring the file separately without solving the problem.
The Premier Elements is version 10.0(20110902.Mol11.B123.280463)
Unlinking the audio and video makes no difference.
VideoReDo reports the file as :

Letting VideoReDo simply rewrite the file resulted in loss of all but the first few seconds of audio.
Elements seems to have imported the file as NTSC-AVCHD-AVCHD LITE 720p 30fps
The computer is running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit version Service Pack 1 kernel 6.1.7601.17944 (reported by SIW)
The computer motherboard is a Gigabyte Z68x-UD3H-B3 with an Intel Core i5-2500 CPU at 3.30GHz. Memory is 4GB.
I note that others have had similar problems with non video recorder recordings.
Can you suggest any file conversion of the original that will work – I have tried several with no improvement in the final result.
And can anyone shed light on what is the basic cause of these problems?

According to the Adobe installation information the trial version of Premiere Elements 11 is fully functional and the watermark is only present until a licence code is purchased.
I have edited AVI footage from a camcorder using the program with no problems (and no loss of audio sync) and the watermark is also present with this.
The odd placement of audio and video was caused by my not dragging the clip carefully enough.
What is odd is that the clip plays completely normally using WIndows Media Player and VLC Media player so I would expect Premiere Elements to be able to handle it without problems.
I think that there is some sort of bug in Premiere Elements' handling of mpe4 files (both in versions 10 and 11) rather than there being anything wrong with my computer.
Is there some way of communicating this directly to the Adobe programers ?
I enclose screenshots of the project settings:

Rate Stretch audio goes out of sync when exported.

Audio, which is rate stretched using the rate stretch tool to 100.01%, plays fine in Premiere Pro CS6. However, when exported to Encore or to MPEG-2 file, the audio is no longer stretched and becomes out of sync by the end of the video. When I play the preview in Encore, the audio is out of sync. Switch back to Premiere, it is OK. Export a MPEG-2 file and author a DVD, the audio is out of sync. Go back to Premiere, it is OK. I record the audio using a TASCAM portable recorder. I have recorded and synched audio many times and this is the first time that it does not work, on two separate Premiere projects. Any ideas on how to fix this. Even better, is there a way to record audio so that it matches the video (from a Panasonic HD AVCHD camcorder) without requiring rate stretch adjustment?

Try changing the speed with right click, Speed/Duration instead of using the Rate Stretch tool.

Audio/Video out of sync when exporting to MPEG4

I am working on a project that is being edited on FCP 5.1.4
Anyhow, there is problem when exporting to MPEG4- the audio/video is out of sync.
Sequence settings show 29.97 editing base with 48 mhz sound, which is the same as the MPEG 4 settings, but they are not in sync. Anyone encounter this problem? I've never had this problem before previously.
Thanks
Caitlyn

Hi Harm,
last time you suggested the same but I wouldn't know how to take the BM card out of the equation. I only have on station. If I export to Beta SP there is no problem.

First four seconds of audio missing when exporting project as MPEG2

Hello all-
When I export my project from FCP (using version 6.0.6) using Compressor's (v. 3.0.5) MPEG2 Program Stream setting, everything works fine except for one slight problem: the first four seconds of audio are missing. I've looked back over my timeline (NTSC-DV with 4 tracks of 48khz 16bit audio), everything is fine, and the audio exported just fine using the H.264 codec. I've tried everything I can think of. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much,
Brett

Audio sync problem: exporting from FCP to Pro tools or soundtrack pro

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Final Cut Pro sound export for mastering.....sync problem
Hey,
I'm editing a 30 minute film and I have done most of the sound edit in FCP and Soundtrack pro and I want to now bring all the sound into pro tools to master the sound but every time i export sound into pro tools it seems to stretch by two or three seconds.
I have tried OMF, AIFF, XML, and Quicktime audio file sut to no avail!!!!
There are 50 tracks in the file so it is quiet large. It's not that there are handles of the file also as when I sync the file with the audio track with the video it syncs in one place but it is still out of sync in another.........It's as if the audio has been stretched!?!
If anyone has any advice it'd be much appreciated
Keith

Try mixing down the audio first. Sequence/Render Only/Audio mixdown.
You could even try exporting the audio with the Export QT movie command using "current settings" and reimport that file, Add that mixed down file to a copy of the sequence. If it syncs in FCP I'd think it will sync on export too.

Audio Delayed When Exporting To Camera

When exporting the movie to my camera, the audio is not quite synced with the video on the Mini-DV tape. I have determined the offset to be about 8 frames. If I then import that video, extract the audio, and then move it to the left 8 frames, it is then synced with the video again. If I encode the project with Toast after I have it synced, and then play the result on the Mac with the DVD Player, it is fine. But if I export it to the camera again, the audio is shifted again on the Mini-DV tape. I have a G4 dual 450 Mhz running OS 10.4 (the latest) with the latest version of iMovie and exporting to a Sony DCR-TRV900 via the firewire.

"..When recording it back to Mini-DV tape this way, is there a significant amount of loss of data even though it is coming over the firewire connection vs the normal export function?.."
No data loss, Gary. This is the proper way to export your edited movie.
You DO get data loss when transferring to a DVD, as a DVD is encoded differently from DV ..the MPEG encoding of a DVD involves compression of the data, leaving only information about the differences between frames of video, instead of keeping the content of all the frames.
You DON'T have any such loss when exporting ('Saving') back to miniDV tapes, as the exact same data which was copied from the tapes, when importing into iMovie, is sent back out to a tape.
There's no data loss, and there should be no audio delay. You can then import again from such a tape and there'll still be no loss. But re-importing from a DVD will produce data loss, as the decompression from MPEG to DV cannot completely rebuild all the data which was in the compressed MPEG data stream on the DVD.
So save your edited work back to tape, Gary, in case you ever need to 'reprise' it, and only create DVDs for sending through the mail, or to present your video with fancy interactive menus, or so that you can easily find particular 'chapters' in your video.

Losing sync when exporting to tape

My audio is in sync on my timeline but the output drifts out of sync when printing to tape and when simply playing off the timeline to tape (both via firewire). In other words, my computer playback is dead on but my tape is dead wrong. My sequence and clips are 16bit and 48. The deck is set to record 16 bit. As far as I know the footage was captured at 16/48.
The video clips were drifting out of sync on my timeline but I exported it as a Quicktime and I pasted that into my timeline.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

1.If you have placed your audio on the timeline, make sure you put everything to stream.
export a large project
2.Make sure your computer has a lot of processing power: playing and recording at the same time requires a lot of RAM/CPU, look for idle processes and shut them down.
3.If nothing helps, record Audio/Video seperately and match them afterwards in AfterEffects/Premiere
4.Flash has a maximum amount of frames it can handle (16000 := 10 Minutes), if your project is getting near to that limit, try dividing your project.

Trouble with denoiser audio effect when exporting help!!!

I have been working on a school assignment for media on Adobe Premiere Pro CC and have come across a very frustrating issue that I have no idea about how to solve. it goes under the category of a 'technical difficulty'.
As I have alot of interviews and talking in my project for my Documentary I am shooting on Bullying for my Current Affair I have alot of audio to deal with and with my Rode VideoMic Pro when in conversation in the midst of an interview there is a constant 'hiss and crackle' that one can hear when watching hence I have used the audio affect of "DeNoiser" to get rid of this and it seems to work great on my workflow in my sequence in Premiere as I have reduced most clips to -15Db's. But when I export my project as I have done several times,the 'Denoiser' affect doesn't work for the first 3 seconds + for all clips that I have used to affect for. At the start of all the clips used with the affect there is a constant hiss and crackle and after 3 seconds it fades out??? Please help me with this very unusual problem as I want this to be a fantastic film on your fantastic software!
Thanks

Is the music on a separate track, or recording live during the interview? Hopefully the music is separate, and if so then do the following:
In Premiere, right click on the audio clip that contains the voice and choose export to Audition. Premiere will export the clip into Audition (and it will update on the timeline when saved in audition).
In Audition, highlight a piece of the clip that is noise only, (a sizable gap when there's no talking and only the ambient noise of the room is heard) capture that as a noise print (right click, "capture noise print" or Shift-P). Then in Effects, select the 'Noise reduction (process)" tool. (Note: I assigned a custom key for easy access as I use it frequently). Then tweak the settings of the tool until it sounds good to you.   You can follow the settings I have posted above as a guide/starting point, but no two settings will work for every situation, (notice how I chose a logarithmic curve and added control points to follow its contour).
Personally, I don't try to remove all the noise, just tame it until the voice is dominate. The more aggressive the reduction, the more unnatural the result. A little ambiance is expected and sounds natural.   Even then, a little noise is masked when I go back in and add music. You can play the clip in a loop while you make adjustments and go ahead, go the extreme to get sense for what each tool does, and then be subtle. Your ears are the best sense of measure.
Once your happy, select or highlight the entire clip and click apply. Listen to the result. If you're happy still, then save it and it will update in Premiere, and you grab the next clip and repeat the process.
Once you have all the voice clips edited, then you can add music. I suggest that you keep the music at -12dB lower than the voice as a starting point.
You can also apply music via a ducking (side-chain) technique in Audition as another step. To do so:
After fixing all the voice clips, mute any music tracks you have. Create a new sequence and paste the sequence you've edited into that new sequence, right click on the audio track in that sequence and bring that into Audition like you did before. What you'll have is all the audio clips assembled into one.   "Normalize" that freshly import track, ensuring even volume/peaking throughout, (to within -3dB) is a good target.
In Audition open a new mutli-session and choose the "VO with Ducking" template. Load that freshly imported audio onto the voice track (top), and add you select music in the track beneath it. Dial down the volume of the music track until the voice sounds dominate (I try for a -12dB difference). Double click the Dynamics Processing filter in the Music track and in the settings tab, check the link channels box and in the level detector area, adjust it's attack and release rate until it sounds good to you.
Then render a mixdown of the session, saving the result to a new audio file. Import that file into Premiere, add it to a new audio track in your original edit and mute the other audio tracks.   Render away.

Is it possible to retain multiple audio tracks when exporting?

While ripping my DVD collection, I've wanted to add a purchased RiffTrax (see www.riftrax.com) to the movie as another audio track. I've been successful, but it took the following steps:
1. Encode the movie using Handbrake, open the resulting m4v file in Quicktime Pro
2. Also in Quicktime Pro, open the Rifftrax aac file I created and add it as another audio track in the m4v
3. Save the m4v as a Quicktime mov file
4. Use Handbrake again to encode the mov file into an m4v file, including my added audio track
The reason I have to do step 4 is because if I were to export an m4v file directly from Quicktime Pro, it would compress all of the audio tracks into a single audio track. It would save a lot of time if Quicktime could export multiple audio tracks, at least when exporting to formats that can handle them. Does anyone know if this is possible?
BTW, if anyone wants more details into how I create the RiffTrax aac, just ask.
- Jake

I've answered my own question, it was a lot easier than I thought. After the first encoding by Handbrake, there's really no difference between calling it a mov file or m4v file. I can change the file extension at will and there's no need to do an export that mashes the audio tracks. It's only AppleTV that needs to see the m4v file extension, Quicktime and iTunes doesn't seem to care one way or the other.
Thanks for letting me think out loud.

Audio Glitch When Exporting Movie Files in iMovie

I've split ambient audio from my footage and restriped a music track over. When I playback within iMovie, it's fine. But when I export the movie out, the are still remnants of the original audio in the playback. How do I get rid of this glitch?

Is it possible that you are running iMovie 09 (which is Version 8.0.6)?
There is a glitch in iMovie 09 where if you use sped changes (fast motion and slow motion) and choose custom percentages like 38%, 59%, 133%, it will cause unpredictable audio artifacts when you share.
THe solution is to change all your speed changes to one of the presets, like 25%, 50%, 100%, 150%, 200%, 400%, etc. These are the tick marks on the slider.

Losing audio quality when exporting from premiere pro

I have now had this happen with two different videos. I play the video in premiere pro and the audio is fine. I export the video and lose most of the quality of the audio portion. One project is a music session when exported I only get the main vocal the drums aren't audible only a buzz sound is made where the kick drum would usually come in. On another project is a thank you video for a family member and the audio is distorted after being exported. The audio sounds fine inside of the session. Once exported the audio will still work fine on my computer and my iphone 5s as long as I'm wearing headphones, once I try to play the video through my iphone 5s speakers the audio quality is gone, making the noises as previously stated. My iphone can still play other tracks fine but videos and audio exported from Premiere Pro are distorted. Any advice on how I can export the video so I wont lose audio quality when playing the video on an iphone? I know it's not my iphone speakers, they play other songs just fine.

The source files as far as the audio goes are wav files that I've pulled off of my desktop. My sequence settings are 1920 by 1080 at 29.97 frames per second. The export settings are H.264 with the preset YouTube (HD 1080 29.97 FPS) and I've also tried HD video 1080p 29.97 FPS. If this isn't enough information please let me know I'm in the learning phase. Audio wise the quality is set to high and I'm exporting at 4800 kh and a bit rate of 190. I've also tried a bit rate of 320 and 264 I think it is and still had the same problems. Let me know if I need to do screen shots I really want to figure this out.
Thanks for your help!

Best Codec for good audio/video when exporting to 3G in FCP

I have FCP 6.06. I have a few videos I've tried converting to 3G using Quick Time Conversion and every setting: Default, 3GPP - Release 5, 3GPP2 - Release A, 3GPP - Mobile MP4, 3GPP2 - EZmovie and AMC - EZmovie. Every one has blurry video and poor quality audio both when I play it on my computer and after I copy it to my phone. Any ideas why and how I can improve the quality of the video and audio which looks good in FCP before conversion.

joey848 wrote:
Don't use FCP for delivery compression. That's what Compressor's for.
True, but the same options will be available from within Compressor. I've never had to export to 3G and I can't test it at the moment. Hope you get better answers.
