Audition Multitrack Mixdown Export Issue

Hello,
It's my first time here and I hope I can get some help. I have a multitrack session, which I want to export to an AIF, but when I do, I end up with a file where the sound cuts out in parts, absolute silence with clicks in others, or just a wall of static at some point in the final AIF. I have what can be bussed, bussed, etc. I have tried exporting some tracks in groups, hoping to reassemble them in a new session, but even then I has the same clipping/noise/static issue. Two other songs have exported just fine (granted, they do not have as many stems). What could I do to solve this issue? Do I need a more powerful machine? I can't afford one and I need to get these sessions exported fairly urgently. Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Richie

Hey, thank you, for the reply. I keep my sessions pretty simple; the most complicated thing is sending some tracks, like backing vox, to a mix bus. But yes, even a WAV is not happening properly.
I did, however, come across this on a "known issues" article on the Adobe site:
Export of mixdown when using multiple instances of Full Reverb or Reverb effects cab results in crash in low memory conditions (issue #2780894):
Export mixdown of a session that contains multiple Reverb or Full Reverb effects applied in realtime results in Adobe Audition crashing. This issue occurs in low- or no-free memory conditions. Both Reverb and Full Reverb effects produce warning messages indicating the resource intensity of these two effects. Adobe suggests bouncing tracks containing Reverb or Full Reverb incrementally if session contains multiple clips or tracks with either of these effects applied. Conditions and results vary from system to system depending upon configuration and available and free memory as well as use of these two effects.
Full Reverb and Reverb effects can introduce long delays resulting in changes made in the user interface not being instantly heard (issue #2808053):
Full reverb and reverb effects (being non-real time/high process effects) use a long delay line to produce an audible effect. In extreme situations and settings, this delay can be up to 30 seconds long. Adobe Audition properly delays all audio (via Adobe Audition's built-in delay compensation) so that you hear the affected audio in proper time and context. During playback, any adjustments made to the audio are similarly delayed. Starting or stopping playback flushes the delay line buffer and any changes are audible immediately on next playback. An additional workaround can be achieved by using the new track pre-render feature on any tracks or busses using non-real time, high process effects.
I do use Full Reverb on a few tracks. I might have to look into a way of recreating my reverbs for these, if it turns out to be the problem. I'll check this on Monday and see whether removing the Full Reverbs fixes the issue.
What do you think?

Multitrack OMF Export Issue - CS6

Hello All,
Does CS6 not like exporting an OMF when I have a multitrack audio file? It hangs during OMF export (separate files) and never finishes.
If that is the case, what is the purpose of the multitrack audio file.
ex: I have one stereo track, and one multitrack on the timeline.
Thanks!
- Ryan

Hey TacoRye,
I posted about this like a month ago and got no response. It has made my life hell on this job I'm doing. What happens is when you make the OMF PP is taking the entire audio track that is attached to every clip in your video instead of pairing it down with handles so the OMF is huge. Apparently OMF's can't be over 2 gigs with media embedded. The only work around is to render and replace but then your audio engineer doesn't have handles. (You'd think they'd at least give you handle options on render and replace.) I never ever would have started this edit of 10 different videos using the multi track functions in premiere as they obviously haven't thought through the work flow. You can't even match your audio back to original source to try and replace just the audio portions of clips in your timeline. Absolutely pathetic.

Export Multitrack Mixdown Crashing Audition

Hi there,
I've been helping some friends record an EP and am trying to export all the recorded audio to send to someone else to mix/master. Someone else recorded for them originally and from those sessions we kept the drum and bass tracks, but i had to rerecord all the guitars and vocals for them. I have been trying to Export a Multitrack Mixdown, but it has been crashing audition every time. I believe the issue is that the original recordings are stereo, and all the stuff I recorded with them is mono. I have been struggling to find a way to convert the mono recordings to dual mono, so if someone could point me in the right direction for that, that could be a solution. If anyone wants to take a look at the .sesx file too, that would be great.
The main issue is that I'm not able to get all of the clips exported as .wav files that are a uniform length, so that someone else is able to work on them. I don't think it's a computing issue, as I have a fairly high powered PC, and there are no effects on any of the tracks. I am able to export all the original recordings to wav files, but none of the new ones.
To let you know what I'm working with, I'm running Audition CS6 on a Windows 7 PC. I covered everything I can think of at the moment, but let me know if I missed any details that could help solve this issue. Thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem. In fact, I've noted that a few people have had this problem, and no one from Audition has been able to provide a solution.
The only workaround I've seen that works (kind of) is to make sure every single track in your session is a stereo track. Delete all of your mono tracks. Notice that I did NOT say delete the mono CLIPS. Keep the clips, but move them into stereo tracks and delete the (now empty) mono tracks you have. Then, when you do a stem mixdown, it should work.
This is really annoying, believe me, I know. And it really sucks that these kinds of known issues rarely actually get addressed (the 5.0.2 update was meant to address channelization issues that could result in crashing, but it obviously didn't). Furthermore, since I am regularly working with other engineers who use other DAWs, this makes me wonder more and more why I continue to use Audition. Wouldn't it be easier to work in a platform, that, I don't know, does what it's supposed to do?

Quits unexpectedly when exporting multitrack mixdown

I've recently updated to Audtion CC. Everytime I try to export the multitrack mixdown, I've received an error and Audition quits unexpectedly:
Is there a fix for this?

Totally insufficient information to say anything about this at all. Can't even tell what OS it is, but if it's a Mac with early Mavericks on it then you need to update it - it's a pile of crap, apparently. If it's Windows and you continue to get problems, then send the error log file that Audition will generate to [email protected] for the devs to look at.

Adobe audition cs6 stops exporting mixdown at 50%

AA CS6 will stop exporting a mixdown at 49% sometimes 50%. Any suggestions? I have been using AA for a few years now and this is the first time I have had this issue.

No, it's not a ram issue, 64 bit with 16 gig and over 600 gig free space. I think I have it narrowed down to being a VST problem.
Are any of the VSTs included with audition known to cause issues on Macs? The only other VSTs I use with audition are some of the Izotope's.
I really hope it isn't a issue with them because I use them on every project.
I have transfered the project file and all of the recordings over to my Windows machine and everything loaded up perfect, and the export worked.
I'll let you know if I find the root of the problem.

Problem with exporting Multitrack Mixdowns

Hello,
Hope someone can help me out!
Whenever I export my Multitrack mixdowns to mp3 files, the mp3 file sounds very different than it does inside Audition and I can't figure out why. When I play the multitrack in Audition it sounds fine, but once I export the file the volume is all messed up with some tracks louder than others (I used layers) and there's also a loud hissing white noise in the background that wasn't there when I play it in Audition.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the export settings? I've tried playing around with the settings but nothing worked.

Thanks for your reply. I'm using 4800Hz for sample rate and 192 for bit rates. I've tried higher quality settings but it seems to make the volumes of the tracks within the mp3 mixdown even more contrast (one track is super loud while another you can barely hear) whereas in Audition they all sound the same volume. The mp3 file volume and quality is not matching up with what I hear in Audition. The mp3 file is also not as "bass" sounding as it is in Audition.

Audition Multitrack issue

Hello,
I'm using Adobe Audition CS5.5. I'm doing a research project where I'm trying to present different outputs to 5 different loudspeakers connected to computer via multi-channel sound card. However, in Audition Multitrack option, whenever I select output for 1 track, it automatically sets that same output for all other tracks and therefore, I'm not able to present different sounds through different loudspeakers.
Can someone, please help me unlock this option, so that I can control eack track separately.
Would greatly appreciate your response.
Regards,
Tarun Wadhwa

Hi Tarun,
I'm not sure how you're changing the output channel, but modifying one tracks output should have no effect on the other tracks. What sound card are you using, and if on Windows, are you using the default MME or the ASIO driver for the device?
You SHOULD be able to click the Track Output Channel Selection and change the track output from the default of Master to whichever you like:
And you should be able to do this for each track. Additionally, you may wish to set this up using Sends so that you can keep a Master output at the local machine for monitoring or reference. For this, you would point each Send to a separate Bus, and the bus would be configured to output to a particular audio device output channel.
Please let us know if this solves the problem, or if you're approaching this configuration in a different manner.
Thanks,
Durin

Is there any way to send Adobe Audition multitrack sequences to Logic Pro?

I edit in Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 so it's easy just to send my Premiere timeline to Audition. My sound guy works in Logic Pro though. Is there some way I can easily export an Audition multitrack sequence for Logic?
Thanks for your help.

You can either export each track as a wav file (stems), or you can export an OMF or FCP XML or you can look at http://www.aatranslator.com.au

Bizzare export issue

Here is a very weird export issue. Windows XP.
Project is set at h264 1920x1080 mono audio 29.97 fps
I have 30 shots that make up the sequence. Each shot is exactly 90 frames. I exported each sequence at h264 1920x1080 with one channel of audio. The first shot exports just fine and is 5 MB. The second shot exports at 10 MB. The third is 15 MB, the tenth shot is 50MB. But the picture is still 90 frames for each shot. BUT, when I export without audio each exported file is just 5 MB. If I look at the properties of each clip the duration of the video and audio is just 90 frames. If I open one of these clips in QuickTime Pro and re-export it as source then the files size goes back to 5 MB; same video, same audio yet with the correct file size.
Anyone seen this before?
Is there a setting that could be incorrect?

Weird, man. Not sure what might cause that.

Crystal JRC PDF Export Issue

We are experiencing a PDF export issue with Crystal JRC version 12.2.202. The PDF report shows 1 of 3 pages but ONLY the first page is generated. When this occurs, ALL other users that are exporting to PDF experience the same issue with any multiple page report. I can't find any errors in the log that would indicate what the problem is. To resolve the issue, I have to recycle the WebLogic application server that hosts the JRC, which would indicate something gets "locked" in memory and gets cleared when the app server is bounced.
Any ideas on how to resolve this ?

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the response!
Though, the mentioned Sun JVM Bug explains the root-cause, the Bug status also state that it is not fixed yet.
Also, we are reluctant to change the JVM Option to -Xint due to unknown impacts on JVM optimizations.
Is there a patch released for CrystalReports to deal with this behavior? We are using CRJ runtime 11.5.7.620 and seeking for a patch on this version.
Thanks.

PP CS5.5 FLV To MP4 Export Issues / Problems

I just upgraded from Production Premium CS5 to CS5.5. I do a fair amount of converting/exporting of imported FLV files (downloaded from internet news sites) to H.264/AAC w/ MP4 wrappers using Premiere Pro (PP) and Adobe Media Encoder (AME). My equipment is a 1+ yr. old HP Win 7 Pro w/ an Intel i970 Quadcore, 12 Gb RAM and MSI nVidia GTX 470 GPU. I have never experienced any queue or export issues w/ CS5 (at least that I noticed), but I am experiencing noticeably degraded queue export and direct export problems with these files in CS5.5.
Description: (1) The queue export times for the exact same imported FLV clip(s) using the exact same sequence settings and H.264/MP4 export settings are noticeably slower in CS5.5 (sometimes 2x, depending on the export settings, e.g. using maximum render quality) than in CS5; (2) My MSI Afterburner GPU monitoring software indicates 5-10% GPU usage during queue/export in CS5, while indicating 0% GPU usage (flatline) in CS5.5; and (3) When I attempt to direct export these files using CS5.5 I get the following error message: "The source and output audio channels are not compatible or a conversion does not exist."
I suspect that it may have something to do with "conforming" anomalies when the FLV file is imported into PP, but I would put that squarely in the category of rank speculation on my part.
Has anyone experienced the same or similar problems or have any insight into what may be the problem(s)? Of course, thanks for any help/insight you can provide.
Jim

What do you mean by a better routine?
A better compression routine than H.264.
Is the quality better than H.264?
Yes.
Does this use an MOV wrapper?
Yes.
Also, would it import correctly into PPro?
Yes.
we would import files into PPro exported out of FCP and would get a red pixelated glitch during preview and export. Does this codec solve this problem as well if it is an MOV wrapper?
I don't know anything about FCP.
Sorry for all the questions, just want to get things right before diving into a new codec.
It's harmless, and free.
Download it and run some tests.

Simple flash export issue

hello
I'm trying to export a flash video using Adobe media encoder from Premier Pro, but when I do I get this error " there are no clips to build".
I have another file that I am able to export and it does not have this problem.
They are Windows Media files and play in Premier fine. I am using Premier Pro CS3.
Lastly, I'm not a video expert but I really need to get these up on the web for work, there is a lot of pressure and I need to get it done.
Regards,
Tom

Exporting ISSUES! Help

I am a relatively new user to lightroom. I haven't had any exporting issues until today. I am attempting to export a photo/photos to a specific folder with a custom name. When I do this it exports the WHOLE library and NOT the edited photo. What am I doing wrong??

Lightroom usually exports all images that are highlighted. If you only want to export one image then make sure it is the only image that is highlighted.

Exporting issues after 4.2 upgrade

Has anyone else experienced exporting issues after installing the 4.2 upgrade? It used to be a breeze but now I keep getting the message that a destination folder has not been specified even though I've done that. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Are you using an Export preset, or setting the Export up manually each time?

Reporting Export Issue from Taleo

Can anyone help? We have a work around for the Exporting Issues into Excel 2010 regarding figures and dates only reading as text, however, a new issue has arisen. In one field we have Aggregated Agencies assigned to any particular Job Code. In the legacy reports, every agency name exported into one cell in Excel, now they export into individual rows, this causes a report to be too long and there is no way to amalgamate them into one cell. Has anyone found a workaround for this?

is there someway that it was reformatted by the Iomega drive being daisy chained to it?
No. That is not possible -anyway, reformatting erases everything on a drive.
You would have noticed that first.
You can download the [NTFS-3G driver|http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com> which will let you read, write and even reformat the clients drive as NTFS on the Mac. All reasonably modern Windows PCs work with this disc format and you won't run into the file size limitations associated with FAT formatted drives.
