Can't get a stereo audio track?

I have an alesis 16 channel firewire and when I select channel 9-10 in the preferences I still only get a mono track...any ideas?

I tried that, but I keep getting "Unsupported Clip" in the channel configuration audio tab of the Inspector.
Here's my workflow:
Import Flip cam's h.264/AAC MP4 files
Edit a clip into a project.
Break apart the clip, to give separate video and audio segments
The green audio segment (will have -a1 after the name in the segment) will be say it's an "Unsupported Clip" in the channel configuration audio tab of the Inspector.
If I change the original clip to dual mono before I break apart I get two mono clips, which is what I was after (but then I could just disable one of the dual mono tracks without splitting apart if that was all I wanted).
I suggest that getting an "Unsupported Clip" when I break apart these clips is a bug.

  • Stereo Audio tracks unlinking themselves ...

    Hi All,
    I'm still using FCP HD 4.5.
    My stereo audio tracks are automatically unlinking from each other and becoming separate mono tracks. I'm not unlinking them, they just suddenly started doing this on their own. I'm having to go back, highlight the two mono tracks, and click option-L to get them back to a stereo pair.
    In some of these cases i have unlinked the audio track from it's video track (APPLE-L), but not in all cases. Either way, i can't figure why this would make a stereo audio track unlink itself into two mono tracks.
    Ideas? (Besides upgrading my version of FCP)
    Paul

    You do not say if this in your timeline. You probably have the link button depressed or undepressed.
    Check that first.

  • Can't access a stereo audio layer

    Hey.  I opened a Premiere Pro project I'd been working on a few weeks ago.  The project has one video track and several audio tracks, one of which (track 1) in in stereo.
    All of the audio tracks play when I run the project, but I can't access the first audio track with most of of the editing tools (like the razor tool, rolling edit, ripple edit).  Further the right click menu does not work for any clips on this audio layer.  All the tools and right click menu work fine for rest of my audio layers.
    Doesn't seem to matter if Sycnh is on or off; layer is unlocked.  Any idea why I can't get full access to this stereo audio layer and how to fix?

    Can you post a screen-cap of your Timeline, showing that Audio Track in detail?
    Might be something there.
    Good luck,

  • Restoring stereo audio track link to video track as source/destination

    I've read everything I can find relevant in discussions & manuals but can't figure out how to get my two audio tracks (stereo) linked back to video track as destinations, as they once were, with video and audio source/destination tabs joined. In the patch panel (when I started this morning) I noticed that only A1 destination button had an a1 source. There was no a2 Source button to join to A2 Destination.
    In my groping around I managed to also make the a1 source button dissapear as well. Link and Stereo Pair are checked in the Modify menu. Linked Selection button is on in Timeline.
    What the heck am I doing wrong here and how do I get those Source buttons to reappear? Thanks for whatever advice you guys can give.
    - Frazzled Idiot

    "how do I get those Source buttons to reappear?"
    The vn and an source tabs appear and disappear in the timeline depending on the clip in the viewer: if it is only video, there is only v1, if it is only stereo audio you have a1 and a2, if you have a standard clip audio + video you have v1, a1 and a2, and so on. Just depends on the clip in the viewer.
    If you had only a1 source, it means that you probably had your clip unlinked, your stereo pair unlinked and you loaded only one of the 2 stereo tracks to the viewer. If you want to edit them back together select the video and 2 audio tracks in the timeline and cmd-L (link video to audio) and opt-L (link stereo pair).
    After that when you load the clip in the viewer you'l have again v1, a1 and a2 source buttons ready to use.

  • How do I set up stereo audio tracks as default in Premiere using the ProRes 422 codec?

    Forgive me if this has been asked many times before. I have searched but can't find anything that explains it in language that doesn't require an advanced degree in computer engineering.
    I am a recent convert for our beloved FCP 7. I am learning to love Premiere dearly - but the audio part of it drives me nuts.
    I have exported from FCP a series of files as ProRes 422 movies with stereo audio tracks. I want to bring them into Premiere in the same way. But when I do it squashed everything into a single audio file.
    This plays havoc with the panning - especially in mixes that have stereo music mixes. Apart from that it just confuses me.
    Also. when I create a new project from scratch in Premiere and I select the custom ProRes 422 setting it only allows ProRes 422 mono audio. I don't see a codec for anything else (ie. stereo).
    Am I missing something?
    I have looked in all the preferences areas and can't find anywhere to change this. I just want to be able to import simple, basic two track audio (and have it show up the same)  as I would in FCP, ProTools and the myriad other editing programs I use.
    I also want to be able to set up a basic two track stereo timeline/sequence without having to reinvent the wheel.
    Many thanks for any help and your patience. I am slowly tearing my hair out and spending long periods sitting in the corner hugging my knees and weeping.
    My specs. Preferred editing codec: ProRes 422
    Premiere pro version CS6 (6.05)
    Thanks again.

    Go to the Project Panel, select all clips and rightclick/modify/audio channels.
    Set it to 2 tack and mono.
    When you drop the clip onto the timeline the stereo will come in on two tracks.
    You can also set this to default in the Preferences under Audio (before importing the clips) (Stereo set to mono).

  • When i try to upload a .mts file from my Sony camera to Premiere Pro CC it refuses to play the audio! Ofcourse i could convert every single clip but it takes tons of time. How can i make Pr play audio track properly?

    Does it not play at all or cannot you get the audio in the timeline?
    Did you copy the entire card to the hdd and then imported the file via the Media Browser?
    Did you source patch the audio tracks?

  • How can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

    how can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

    It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop.  And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure  what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

  • With Adobe Premier Elements 13 can I add my own audio tracks by pulling music from my files and by using my UBS microphone?

    Please remind us on what computer operating system your Premiere Elements 13 is running
    Using your own music.....
    Yes, with important but.....
    Details
    If your music is from iTunes, more than likely you will get some sort of error message from the program when you try to import the iTunes music into Premiere Elements (most versions including 13). In that case, please convert the iTunes music to the wav version in iTunes using the following iTunes instructions.

    As for Premiere Elements narration clips using the its Narration Tool
    1. Adobe documentation indicates the USB microphone do not work in Premiere Elements and suggest the use of microphones that connect to the computer via computer jack.
    But, there are some scattered cases where the user has found a USB microphone that has worked for him or her.
    2. Be sure to check Edit Menu/Preferences/Audio Hardware ASIO settings to assure that Input and Output are enabled.
    3. There have been reports (Premiere Elements several versions) where addition of narration using the Narration Tool results in loss of pre-existing
    sound on numbered audio track clips and soundtrack.

  • Can't add a new audio track without any settings

    Can anyone tell me were faced with the same problem. Doing audio post production in Logic Pro X, the latest version, the project is big, At some stage the work I was faced with the fact that you can't add a new audio track without any settings, no matter what inserts I track with duplicate settings of one of the tracks and it begins to sound with this track. I don't add a new audio track with duplicate settings. I add a new one, and I still opens the track with some sort of settings. What is it? This is a glitch or I'm somewhere that we have not considered? Duplicates the configuration of one of the tracks collected in group 1, which I did for editing convenience. Duplicates and also automation and if the new track am I doing something then this machine is transferred to the existing track from this group.

    Everything works in full 'Logic Pro X' mode. It's just a glitch in my project. The problem while you decide this: I insert a new track and it reset and set the output.

  • Why can't I enable an audio track for recording? (It won't let me)

    I want to record VO but PP won't let me...
    On Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite in System Preferences:
    • Sound Input is set to C-Media USB Headphone Set (an Alesis usb mic...works fine for VO in Final Cut Pro 7)
    • Output is set to Headphone port
    In Premiere Pro CC Audio Hardware Preferences:
    • ASIO Hardware is set to "System Default Input/Output"
    • I have also tried "C-Media USB Headphone Set but this, too, doesn't work
    • With "System Default I/O" selected, Output Mapping is set to "Adobe Desktop Audio" (only choice), and shows:
         • "Built-in Output: Headphones 1
         • "Built-in Output: Headphones 2
         • "C-Media USB Headphone Set: Front Left
         • "C-Media USB Headphone Set: Front Right
    all four of these have a couple of square icons to the right.
    In order to record VO, I first need to "enable track for recording" in the Audio Track Mixer. There are no in or out points set in my timeline and the tracks are not locked or solo'd or anything. So why can't I select the audio track I want to use to record VO? I click it but there is no response. I just want to know why this software is not doing what it's designed to do.

    is I learn still around -? That was VERY HANDY!

  • Can't get my MacBook audio to record audiio in CS6 Premiere Pro ?

    Can't get my MacBook audio to record audiio in CS6 Premiere Pro ?
    Am i missing something here ?    It's telling me Premiere Pro is using the aggregate audio device,
    though not sure what that means ?
    thanks!

    If your model number isn't showing up in Printer Setup then you need to install the drivers. After you do that you should be able to setup your printer and print OK. Make sure Appletalk is checked in Airport in your Network Pref Pane.

  • HOW CAN I SPLIT STEREO AUDIO TRACKS

    I'm trying to modify one of the audio tracks but both of the tracks are locked. If I do something with one of the tracks it affects the other one so how can I split it? or separate it? is it stereo? is there any way I can do it? THANKS!!!!!!!

    Welcome to the discussions...
    opt L - separates stereo channels...

  • In which steps of Logic E. can I make a stereo audio recording track with a right and left microphone?

    I  want to make a stereo recording with a microphone for left and one for right. Can someone tell me the Logic steps to record 2 tracks (mono left and
    mono right?) at once, to make a stereo track from both tracks?   I use Logic Express 7.

    I think it is easy if you have an audio interface that has two mic imputs. You direct each of them to two different mono audio tracks. Then, at the time if playing it, you just pan one channel to the left and the other to the right.
    I think this is what you are asking for,
    hope it helps

  • Using MPEG2 video with 2 stereo audio tracks

    Hi.
    I am using MPEG 2 files that have 2 audio streams, each stereo. When importing to Premiere CS5.5, only first stereo pair is used, i cannot get the second stream. Is it possible to fix this?

    A production company in my city gave the files to me, but I don't know with what software they are recorded.
    When i check the files in Gspot (http://www.headbands.com/gspot/v26x/index.htm) they are OK, it founds two MPEG1 layer2 stereo audio pairs.
    Also, if I play the files in VLC i can choose from Audio Track 1 and Track 2.

  • How can I make a synced audio track match the length of selected clips in a multicam seq?

    I have a continuous multicam sequence of about 13 minutes containing a synced master audio track recorded from seperate microphones. I want to rearrange scenes from it into my final sequence, but when I select a range of clips to nest the entire length of audio gets pasted into the new sequence. I want to trim the audio to match just the clips I've selected but not lose sync. Is there a way to do this or is nesting not the way to chop up a sequence and rearrange the scenes in it?
    Thanks.
    Mike

    Me too!!!  I have a multicam sequence from 2 cameras with the audio staying on camera 1. I also have a seperate, continuous  audio track recorded from microphones which I have synced to the timeline. I'm trying to select a group of sequential clips of different camera angles from the timeline to create scenes which I can insert into a final sequence but in a different order from how they are on the timeline. Let's say I want to take a series of clips that start at 3:30 on the timeline and go until 4:30 on the timeline.  It will contain several cuts between the different cameras and I want to use that section as the first scene of my new sequence. If I select all of the clips in that time period and nest them into a new sequence, I only get the audio from camera 1 on the new TL. If I try window selecting those clips to include the continuous audio track, I get a new TL with 3 minutes and 30 seconds of the desired audio, then the video clips, and then the rest of the audio making a 13 minute TL. I just learned, after searching around, about marking in and out points on my multicam seq. and using the trick of "LIFTing" and then "UNDOing" to keep my  multiseq intact, and then pasting into a new sequence. That works, but I'm only getting the audio track from off the camera. It won't select and lift the section of the other audio track that I want. I'm rushed for time so that's the way I've ended up finishing the video for now. The camera audio is just going to have to do although the mic recording is much better. The more I try to explain this the more confused I get and I'm sure everybody reading it does too. Any ideas?   Thanks!
