Can't see audio levels in Timeline

What's gotten turned off so I can't see my audio dB levels when I raise and lower them in the Timeline audio tracks? How do I turn them back on?

What did they look like before you lost them? There are more than three different ways to see that information. Which one were you seeing? You can alos use the FCP manual to search for LEVELS.

  • Can't Move Audio Clips in Timeline After Expanding to View Waveforms (Premiere Pro CC 2014.2)

    So, this seems to be a bit of a weird one, and I'd be pretty stoked if it ended up being something silly that I'm doing wrong, but I can't for the life of me figure out what that might be.
    As the title suggests, I can't use the mouse to move some audio clips in a timeline once I expand the track to view the waveforms. This appears to only happen with independent audio clips (WAV. AIFF, MP3, etc), and not with clips attached to video. Also, it's worth noting that I don't have track keyframes turned on. I was hoping that was it, but it wasn't.
    So, what happens is this:
    1) I drag an audio clip down to the timeline (I can drag it onto an existing track, or drag to the bottom of the sequence and create a new track. Neither option seems to get a different result.).
    2) So long as the track isn't expanded and the waveform isn't visible, I can move the clip left, right, or up and down to a different track.
    3) As soon as I expand the track to view the waveform this functionality goes out the window. When this issue happens I can use the keyboard to nudge left and right, but that's about all the movement I have.
    4) It's almost as though the track becomes corrupt. The lanes for the track don't redraw properly, and the track is pretty much unusable. I can't put anything into it, and I can't take anything out. All I can do is delete the track and start again.
    Complicating issues is that this doesn't always happen, but instead is one of those "vast majority of the time" issues. I can't see any rhyme or reason for why it works or doesn't. I seem to do the exact same thing, but occasionally get different results. It doesn't matter what type of file I'm using (WAV, AIFF, etc), and this only happens with independent audio clips.
    Once again, I don't have track keyframing turned on when this happens. Believe me, I wish that was it.
    I have already filed a couple of bug reports about this over the last month or so, but haven't heard anything yet. I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issue, and if so, whether they had any workarounds.
    Mandatory system info:
    Windows 7 Professional SP1 (64-Bit)
    Intel i7-3820
    32GB RAM
    Nvidia GTX 980 (350.12)
    Premiere Pro CC 2014.2

    Update:
    I was just looking to post a screenshot of the timeline when I discovered something interesting. As soon as I use the vertical scroll bar to the right of the sequence, the tracks start to work again. Close off the waveform and the clip goes haywire. Move the scroll bar a tiny bit (or a lot), and suddenly the clip starts working.
    Pretty bizarre.
    The good news is that for the time being that could be a workaround, though it would be great for this to not happen at all.

  • Audio level in timeline does not match the source's clips audio level

    When I playback the sequence the audio level increases a considerable amount (6 to 8 Decibels)
    when compared to the audio of the source clip in the bin and the source quicktime located in the scratch folder.
    As a result I'm led to believe the issue is local to the sequence. When I open the sequence clip in the viewer the audio has not been increased using the level slider (it displays 0 DB in the entry box). I'm editing a 1 1/2 hour sequence and the problems exists throughout the entire timeline. Can anybody recommend any solutions.
    *All feedback is much appreciated.*

    Hi,
    Looks like you resolved the issue, can you tell us what you did in case anyone else has the same problem.

  • How to adjust audio level on timeline?

    Hi,
    I want to adjust the audio level using the pen tool on an audio track of the timeline... and I've done it before, but I can't for the life of me remember how. I've imported a voiceover, and have a separate track with the background music. How do I adjust the music level up/down at the point where the narration kicks in/out?
    Thanks very much!
    Vic

    Click on the Clip Overlays button (the zig-zag line at the bottom left of the Timeline window). That will give you a pink line in the middle of your audio tracks where you can use the pen tool.

  • How can I see Audio CD?

    So I am using iTunes 11.04 on Snow Leopard and the thing is when I insert an audio CD I can't see it.
    I cannot see it on library or anywhere. My MacBook shows that I have CD inserted and when I double click on the first track it imports it to my iTunes library and plays it, but I don't want to import the CD.
    How can I see and listen to the audio CD I inserted? On the last iTunes version it was on menu side, but there's no menu side anymore.
    Basically, where do I have to click to listen to my audio CD?

    Hi,
    Go to main menu > view > select "Show Sidebar"

  • Close Captions can't see audio from video file

    Trying to close caption a video file using Slide Notes in Captivate 5.  Inserted Video via Insert>Slide Video,  added notes via Slide Notes and checked off cc box.  When I go to Audio dialog (Audio > Record > to Slide), my notes show up only as notes, the captions tab is empty.   No audio is displayed for the slide (because it is expecting me to record or import some audio).
    From what I've read, this audio dialog box is where I synch my slide notes as captions, but I can't see any audio or video synch reference at all -- even duration / frame count would work.
    Do I need to import a separate mp3 version of the movie to synch to?
    Any suggestions?

    I figured it out - typical obvious error on my part.   If I'm captioning a MOVIE, I need to adjust the timing via the Video tab, not the audio tab.

  • Can't see audio wave in viewer after FCP5 project updated into FCP2

    After updating my project from old FCP 5 version running on Tiger to FCP2 running on Leopard, I can't see the audio wave picture inthe viewer window. Is there an explanation for this?
    Thanks assistance.

    You can try clearing the waveform cache in your project folder. Press Shift Q to open the System Preferences window. Look for the location that is set as your Waveform Cache location, then use the Finder to navigate to that folder. Remove the cache files from there, and then try relaunching your project to see if that solves your issue.

    Hello Raimonds,
    To answer your question, you are not able to check your ink levels from ePrint Center. The only thing that you can do in ePrint Center is monitor the status of your recent print jobs that you send via ePrint and monitor the status of connection of your printer to the ePrint Servers.

  • Can't drag audio files onto timeline

    I can usually drag audio files (.mp3, .mov, .aiff) right into a project and it loads into either an existing track or automatically creates a new one.
    I can't do that anymore as it loads up into an already existing track that has audio already on it and edited.
    Simply cannot import new audio, on new tracks.
    Any suggestions?

    thanks

    Probably a matter of source patching:

  • Can't See Audio Files in iDvd for Slide Shows Once Applied

    When you select music from iTunes for the iDvd Slideshow (I created it in iDVD, not in iPhoto), there is no place to see what songs you have in the playlist. Unlike the photos in the slideshow that can be removed and moved around.
    There should be a similar window for the Audio so that you can add or delete selections.
    It may be that it is easier to do this in iPhoto rather than in iDVD. I'll try that next.
    Thanks to anyone who knows if I've missed the place to see the songs to be played for the iDvd slideshow.
    Thanks.

  • Can't see audio note on my iPhone

    When I try to sync the audio notes playslist from itunes to my iPhone it doesn't show up, the options "sync notes' is checked and I can see there is files that are transferred to the iphone because there is less free space, and I can see the playlist is added to the phone in iTunes, but nothing is showing up on the phone.
    But if I create another playlist and drag all the notes + a song (normal music file), everything shows in the playlist of the iphone!
    Any ideas!?&

    What photos and videos?
    Photos and videos taken with the iphone have nothing to do with itunes.
    You should be importing them to your computer regularly as you would from any digital camera.

  • Can very uneven audio levels be fixed?

                                                      How do I fix very uneven audio with Premiere Pro - Can it be done?
    Source/Root Cause: Person I'm filming is speaking into a handheld mike while walking around so they of course can't hold it perfectly steady, level and still in order to produce speech that is consistently even and uniform. Also, in addition, their voice fluctuates to a significant degree & alternates between soft and loud.
    Results in: Audio with a substantial dynamic range.
    Correction Requires: (because I don't know any better) a number of hours manually dicing up the audio track and boosting the segments that are soft to the extent necessary or trying to salvage the clipped parts.
    That intensive process and concentrated effort is: wearing, time consuming, tedious and tests my patience.
    I figure there must be a better solution! Experimented with the audio tools but has been shut out thus far & haven't solved the problem.
    What should I be doing so I can automatically lower the highs and boost the lows?
    All advice & suggestions welcome.
    Thank you.

    Have you checked out the "dynamics" effect/compressor control?

  • Can you raise audio level on just the left side of a stereo track?

    Video with two lavs and two channels but capturing as stereo. One of the lavs is really low. Anyway to just raise that one side? I have Premiere CS5.52 and Audition 5.5 but don't see an obvious way to do what I need in either program.
    Thanks for any help.

    For myself, I prefer the Fill effects.  That'll center the channels.  You'll have to duplicate the audio track and use Fill Left on one and Fill Right on the other, but you end up with easily adjustable audio.
    But doesn't that leave you with two same mono tracks with the whole signal from both channels in there?
    For me the easiest way is either apply the Channel Volume effect from the effects panel to the audio clip in the timeline
    or, as Bill suggests, the Break out to Mono from the context menu to the source clip in the project panel.
    and keep smiling

  • Can't drag audio clips onto timeline in PPro CC

    It doesn't seem to be possible to drag an audio clip directly onto the timeline any more without first importing it into the project.
    In CS6, I could drag an audio file like a .wav, mp3 or similar directly on to the timeline.  CS6 would automatically add it to the project, it would be conformed, and its waveform would appear in the timeline.
    In CC, it doesn't add it to the project, and instead it creates what appears to be just an empty placeholder in the timeline.  There's no waveform, and no audio is heard when the sequence is played.
    With CC, it seems you have to import it into the project first, then drag it onto the timeline, creating an unncessary extra step.
    Also, if after importing that audio file into the project you then delete it, it doesn't get removed from the timeline, it just stays there.

    Feature is still there, has not changed.
