Log and Capture window --> Clip Settings tab
right hand side, lower "Audio" pane ... there should be a checkbox called "Preview" , make sure it is checked.
Or monitor it from your capture device...deck, camera, whathaveyou.

Unable to capture audio from BlackMagic HD Extreme via Voice Over tool

Hi !
I'm trying to capture audio via my BlackMagic HD Extrem card using the Voice Over tool in FCP6, but I can't, no audio is incoming.
I can ingest audio with video using log and capture, then I know my card and my cables are working.
I tried to set the BM card as audio input in my Audio's System Prefereces Pane, but it isn't working either.
I've been looking on the BM website, but I found nothing.
Can you help me ?
Thx

Thanks for the reply.
Looking at system preferences I found that audio input was set microphone. Don't know how it happened. I switched it to DeckLink and now FCP displays 16 input channels in Log and Capture dialog. I didn't try to capture yet but I think it solved the problem, because before I had only two channels displyed.

Capturing audio only in fcp5

I am rather new to Final Cut Pro 5 and have been trying to teach myself as I go along. I am, however, having trouble capturing audio seperate from video. I am shooting a 16mm film and need to capture audio and video to seperate files in order to synch them for edit. While I am able to capture straight video (i.e. without audio) I am unable to capture straight audio (i.e. without video in the same file). The only way that I have been able to capture audio is if some form of video is captured along with it. How can I capture an audio only file. I am using FCP 5 on a PowerBook G4 - capturing through a "Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge" with a Canon ZR 45 for video and a Sony TCD D8 portable DAT for audio. Any information is greatly appreciated and I patiently await your response(s).
Thank you,

My welcome also but, as a beginner, you really need to run the tutorials and learn how to use the resources you paid for when you got your applications.
Look in the online help system for audio only. Look in the manual index for audio only. Examine the chapter on capturing.
How are you doing Video Only if you don't understand the Clip Settings function or where it is located?
You can force DV to build separate audio and video files while capturing but it's not recommended (dunno why not). If you force separate files, you can simply delete the ones you don't want.

Emulator on OSX don't support capturing audio, is this a BUG?? SDK 3.0

Hello all,
well i'm trying to capture audio with the emulator on OSX. When i test the System Properties for capturing audio i always get FALSE.
I tried the same application on Windows XP with the SDK 3.0 and it works, i'm getting True and can capture the audio with my microphone.
Now i want to know if this is only a Bug and could be fixed or is the support for capturing audio on Mac OSX not implemented yet?
Thanks

Thanks for your reply, I know that some Style Elements won't be supported in Outlook, but this is not the reason.
Please refer to my post previously, I post it but get no response.

Capture Audio and Video to different disks or not?

I thought that capturing audio and video to separate disks was more efficient, now I see in the FCS 2 documentation it says that this is not recommended for any of the DV formats. But it does not say why, or what the consequences of doing this are...
Does anyone out there know?
Thanks,
Pete d.

Now, Is there any value in putting the render files on a drive that is separate from the Capture disks?
Pete D.
Absolutely. Listen to your drives while doing an intense render. The Capture drive is grabbing all of the video clips in the stack, the system drive is grabbing software. If you render to the Capture drive, that same drive has to write, too. Reduce the load by using a Render drive.
I have four drives: System, Capture, Render, Output. The last is used for all exports, encodes, and transcodes.

Capturing Audio from DAT

Hello,
I'm trying to capture audio from a DAT deck (Tascam DA-20) into FCP HD by routing it through my JVC BR-DV600U DV deck (RCA output from DAT, RCA input to DV deck, Firewire into FCP).
The DV deck's input is set to line-in, and the audio is being routed through (audio meters on DV deck mimic those on DAT deck, and I can hear the audio through the headphones jacked into my DV deck).
However, when I try to capture the audio on FCP, I am unsuccessful, prompting the following window from FCP: "Error: Final Cut Pro HD was unable to read the movie file just captured."
Now, I use the same set up I described above to capture footage from my Beta deck into FCP with no problems (route Beta signal through DV deck and firewire it into FCP). This leads me to believe that perhaps the glitch lies within my Capture Presets.
At first, I tried to capture the signal as an Audio-Only DV NTSC 48 Khz/Non-controllable device. After that failed, I tried to create my own capture preset, but am not sure it will make a difference, as the only input choices I am given are DV Audio, Built-In Audio, and None.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Why not capture the audio content outside of FCP, check the sample rate for 48Khz/16-bit, convert if necessary, save as an AIFF file, and then import that resulting sound file into FCP?
Any good audio app, including STP will do captures.
You are probably going to need to do some cleanup on the audio anyway before you use it, so why not just use an audio app to do it beforehand?
Besides, if you have an audio device (PCI card or Firewire device) in your Mac, you can use the S/PDIF port for your connection to the DAT and do a digital transfer when you import.
As I understand the way you are doing it now, you are taking digital content from the DAT, converting it to analog for the connection into your deck, and then re-converting it into digital when you capture it back into FCP.
One big advantage of digital audio (and video) is to avoid generation loss and added noise during transfer if you go D-to-D.
If you don't have an audio card or Firewire A/D audio I/O device with S/PDIF ports in your Mac, then see if you can find a friend who has one and can do the transfer for you. Then he can give you the file on a CD-ROM.
That's what I'd do.

I cannot capture Audio

MacBook Pro 2.33 GHz
Final Cut Pro 5.1.4
Quicktime Pro 7.1.5
JVC Camcorder GR-DV4000E
Connected via firewire direct to the MacBook
I have reinstalled Quicktime and trashed the FCP preferences.
When I go to Audio/Video settings>Capture Presets and edit my DV PAL 48 kHz settings under Quicktime Video Settings I get [Missing] DV Video and under Quicktime Audio Settings [Missing] DV Audio.
In the digitizer menu under Quicktime Video Settings there is an item DV Video. If I select DV Video it does show next to input my camcorder (GR-DV4000). But when I select DV Video, there is not anymore a setting DV Audio in the menu under Quicktime Audio Settings (not even the [Missing] DV Audio setting).
This behavior does not change if I select View>Reset AV Devices.
I can capture video, but though there seems to be an audio file, it is silent. If I select Show Audio Waveforms in the timeline, there is no waveform visible. The viewer does have a stereo tab but it shows no (visible) audio waveforms.
In System Settings, Capture Audio and Video to Separate Files is disabled. Enabling this does not make any difference.
Is this a known bug? Anything I do wrong? Anything I could try?

Were the capture settings and any other settings the
same for your test with the powerbook?
Have you successfully captured on your macbook pro
prior to your current problems?
If so, have you made any changes to your system,
software updates, system updates, Third party apps or
plugins?
In your original post you mention that though
there seems to be an audio file, it is silent
what exactly does this mean? Do you get a green
audio track after capturing, but it is silent? Is
there any movement in the levels meter (next to the
toolbar)? Is there definitely audio on the tape(s)
in question (do you hear it playing it on the cam?)
Do any other tapes work?
When I originally asked what the capture settings
are, I was wondering if you have set FCP to capture
audio from Ch1 when it was recorded to Ch2 on the
camera i.e are you capturing audio 'Ch1 + Ch2', Ch1
(L), CH2 (R), 'Stereo', 'Mono mix'?
The Capture settings were exactly the same.
This is the first time I try to capture on the MacBook Pro.
I used the migration assistant to transfer my software on the Powerbook to the MacBook Pro.
I get 4 green audio tracks that are silent. There is no movement in the audio meters, nor on the timeline, nor in the capture window.
There is audio on the tapes. I have captured 11 different tapes that are all silent. Everything works on the Powerbook. The sound on the tapes is 16 bit stereo. Capture was set to record Left and Right linked as a stereo file.
I think this happens because I cannot select DV Audio in the Audio/Video Settings.
The strange thing is that I get [Missing] DV Video and [Missing] DV Audio in the Audio/Video Settings. In the menu under Video Settings I can select DV Video, but when I select this, there is no more DV Audio in the menu under Audio Settings.
The tapes were captured with [Missing] DV Video and [Missing] DV Audio. This captures the video but not the audio.

Capture audio and video files to seperate files

Forum,
Having suffered problems with OS 10.5 and Quicktime 7.4.1 I have done a clean install with 10. 4 .11.
When I select capture the following notice appears
"Audio only capture selected,video preview disabled"
In system settings "capture audio and video to seperate files " is NOT checked.
But that may not mean the same as the statement in in the capture window.
I have searched HELP and a book called" Optimizing your Final Cut Pro System" but can not find an answer.
Advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
Michael Craven

Hi,
Check this:
in Log & Capture window select Clip Settings tab and make sure video box is checked.

Is there a way to CAPTURE audio/video off the net then run it m.m. prsntn

I'm fairly new to the mac genre. In windows we had apps like Camtasia to
capture audio/video off the net. I was hoping something like that would
be avail for the mac and then once capture it how would I edit it and
include it in a presentation software; for example, keynote?
Is there added hardware req'd (?Capture board)? what would be a good software mac
compatible?

I'd like to capture audio and video for example sometimes just need to capture the
audio if some instruction is coming say over a quicktime or media player for my work.
Then sometimes I need to capture the audio and video when they ware actually showing me
charts and explaining them things like that.
is snap Z the way to go then for quality and fair pricing to get good results.
Do we have any resident applications already on the ilife variety that could be utilized for
something like this or is the only way to go through a 3rd party vendor?

Capturing audio and video .....

Hello everybody, I'm new to the world of Adobe Premiere Elements, a source present. I have a pavilon pc hp m9040n, Windows Vista Premium 32-bit, Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0. I want to capture audio and video on a DVD, the pilot is set to DV / HDV and the HDV format in the acquisition and says that the peripheral acquicision is not online. The same happens when I connect a video camera Hi8 Sony. Can help to solve this?, Thank you very much.

It sounds like you are having problmes capturing from two separate cameras. What are the manufacturers and the exact model numbers please? Also, how are these cameras attached to the computer, i.e. FireWire cable into the corresponding FireWire port on the computer?
It sounds as though you are attempting to do the Capture from within PE3. Is this correct? If so, what is the order that you connect the cameras, turn them on, their settings and the order that you launch PE3, and also the Capture module of PE3? Might be something there.
Good luck,

Capturing audio speeches & importing into iTunes

I work with a small non-profit, and we often host forums, etc with guest speakers. I would like to record the speakers talks, import them into an iTunes library, and then be able to burn CDs of them for members who couldn't attend. Any suggestions on how to best do this? Thanks, Jeff.

Hi Jeff,
I would say it depends on what hardware you already have and what you're willing to purchase. If you have an iPod, there are a number of microphones you can use, available at the Apple iPod Store or elsewhere. They should come with all the software needed and instructions on how to get your audio recordings into iTunes, then you'll be able to burn them as usual.
If you have or plan to purchase a digital or cassette recorder, then you'll also need to go into say RadioShack or Fry's and get the appropriate mini-plug to mini-plug adapter, just take your recorder with you and get somebody to assist you in finding the right cable to connect to your PC/Mac. Then you'll need audio capturing software, for Mac I highly recommend Audacity, it's a great, powerful sound editor that's free, can't beat that deal. For PC, there should be tons of sound editors that let you capture audio coming into the Line-in port, I don't have one that I use as all the audio I do on my Mac, but you should be able to find a good one in the usual places (download.com, tucows).
You'd have to record your speeches by clicking record in your sound editing software, then pushing play on your hand recorder, when finished, stop the recorder, then click to stop capture on the computer. You can save the resulting file (or sometimes you'll "export" rather than save) to an iTunes friendly format (MP3, WAV, AAC, AIFF on Mac, WMA on Windows), then import the files into iTunes and voila.
Hope that helps!

How to find out captured audio data is stored completely

We are using livepkgr to capture audio with AMS Standard. Since server-side scripting is not available with AMS Standard, we are using a PHP script to manipulate captured audio. Everything works well in testing, but we are wondering about the following.
When we close an audio capture session with:
nsPublish.attachAudio(null);
nsPublish.close();
can we assume that all the audio data has been written to the stream file? What if the server is busy with many simultanenous capture sessions? Is there a way to verify that a steam file is complete, closed, and ready for processing?
Thank you very much!

Hi,
If you are guided to a structure, double click on the data element and go to the structure.
Check the where-used for this data element. You will get a list of them which will give you an idea of where to find the data and in which transparent table.

Can JMF capture audio from sound card?

I want to know if JMF can capture sound/audio from the sound card. Until now we have been capturing audio from microphone. but is there any possibility of capturing audio from sound card using JMF.
The audio captured from the sound card is to be streamed using JMF/RTP API.

Dear seniors,
i have tried to display my audio file as a graph as
x axis being the Time and the y axis beeing the frequency/pitch.
look at this post, i have mentioned all here...
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3073027&#3073027
is it possible to display as i desired?
wht the audio stream has? is it frequency or pitch?...
pls do give me some tips on that...
thanx in advance

Capture Audio from Mic

I am new to Java and need to know where to start with developing a Java app that can capture audio from a pc's mic, convert it to mp3, name the audio, and store it in a directory of my choosing. Additionally, I'll need an interface to that audio app that can receive function calls and args from a windows-based application.
Can you point me in the right direction- sample code if possible.
Thanks,
Jeff

I have the same problem. There doesn't seem to be any sample code for capturing an audio recording with JMF! I have browsed the web, the usenet groups and the (physical) library. It's almost like they try to keep it secret :/
There is plenty of information on how to use the JMF player, though.
