Change the audio sample rate?

It looks like upon export, the audio default sample rate is 44khz, which creates some issues when uploading to vimeo and youtube. Is there a way to switch the sample rate to 48khz?
Thanks!
Kyle

Are you exporting from Motion straight to Vimeo or Youtube? If so, Motion encodes the audio at 48khz.
I've never had any problem using 44 or 48 kHz when sending files to youTube or Vimeo. Please explain the kind of problem your having... and your workflow.
ps... You can send to Compressor from Motion and change the sampling rate. Along with that you can send to youTube or Vimeo from Compressor.

How do I change the audio sample rate from 48kHz to 44.1kHz for Mpeg2

Hey all,
I've been searching for a while but haven't found any direct answers in the forums or the user manual so here goes.
I have to dispatch a file to Bloomberg TV and the file specs they have given me are as follows:
Video Standard: MPEG-2, MP:ML, 4:2:0
Frame Rate: PAL 25fps
Video Size 720 x 405
Aspect Ratio 16:9
Audio Standard MPEG-1 Layer 2
MPEG-2 Program Stream Mux rate 6mbs per second
Bit Rate Type: CBR
Video Bit Rate 5.7mbs
Audio Bit Rate 192kbs
Audio Sample Rate 44.1Khz
Interlacing: Upper Field first (why they want interlaced for web streaming is beyond me)
GOP Structure: IBBP
I-Frame distance 12
Now everything above is fine except the audio encoding because even though I have set up a new setting from scratch I cant find anywhere to adjust the audio sample rate. The Inspector tells me the Audio encoder is set to:
Format: MPEG
Sample Rate: 48.000kHz
Channels: 2
Bits Per Sample: 16
Anyone Know how or even if I can change these audio settings? The only adjustments I can find are the filters or the transport/program stream option. I have it set to program as specified by Bloomberg.
Thanks in advance
J

The only setting that I could find in compressor that lets your change the bitrate to 44.1 is when you create a new dolby digital setting and then under the inspectors audio tab/Target System button, change the button to Generic AC-3. When done, you can change the Sample Rate to 44.1.
Hope this helps?

How do i change the audio sample rate in motion 5?

Hello,
here's a simple question. I import 48 Khz audio into the project, but when I go to export the summery says the audios will be exported at 44 Khz. Why is that and how do I export in 48 Khz?
Thanks!
Mike

I'll see if I can muddle through this.
According to the documentation, Motion converts everything internally to 44.1kHz 16-bit. There's no way to change this.
To export in 48kHz, you need to quit Motion. From the Finder > Go > Utilities. Open the Audio MIDI Setup application. For (all) outputs, set the sample rate(s) to 48.000 kHz (and 2 - 24 bit if available [32bit float might work as well]). Quit Audio MIDI Setup and restart Motion.
When you go to export from Motion, be aware that the export Summary will still show 44.1kHz (which is thoroughly annoying!), but the exported video will be the audio rate you set in the Setup app:

How can I find out the audio sampling rate of BetacamSP tape?

Hi guys
I'm trying to digitize BetacamSP tape. But I'm afraid if I might choose wrong setting...
This tape is from very long time ago so we don't know which audio sampling rate we recorded with..
How can I find out the audio sampling rate of this BetacamSP tape?
Thanks:)

The sampling rate is set by the Sony DVMCDA2 you are using, when the conversion is made from the analog input to the digital (DV) output. You should be outputting standard DV which is 16bit 48khz audio.
Assuming you are in the US, your Easy Setup for FCP should be DV-NTSC, and then open the Log and Capture Pane and set the Capture Settings Device Control to Non-Controlable Device and you should be good to go.
You will have to roll the deck manually and start and end your capture manually.
You can download a user manual for the DVMCDA2 by clicking here.

Changing existing audio sample rates

would it benefit me at all to convert my existing 44100 audio to say 48000 or above? would it sound better or just make it compatable to record the rest of the project at 48?

No reason to change sample rates unless your project requires delivery of audio at a particular sample rate.
If your original recordings are at 44.1, say, there would be no increase in audio quality by converting them to 48. Depending on the nature of the audio, there's actually a slight chance you'd be decreasing the audio quality (i.e., introducing aliasing artifacts).
If you haven't gotten too far in your recording, and you have lots of tracks to go, sure, you could convert existing audio to 48 and record the rest of your stuff at 48. This will give you slightly better high-end definition, for the most part. But ultimately, if you're going to put this stuff on CD you're going to have to go down to 44.1 anyway.

How can I ensure that the audio sample rate of my capture preset matches?

Hi
1. I have found that none of my ten projects has sound, although audio meters & settings moves up & down.
Simultaniously, canvas displays that In: Not Set- & Out Not Set. Below those reads: Video V1: 00:03:42;13 Audio A1: 00:03:42;13 A2: 00:42;13. These happen on the images of all my ten projects when the playhead stops in timeline
2. In Viewer the In & Out sets show a thin red line connecting them.
I never had this problem before. A/V of all projects were doing just fine till last night.
I wonder if these issues are interrelated, or if I may have clicked something wrongly that has triggered this, which I don't remember now.
I would appreciate it if you could kindly address this problem and help me to resolve the isssue. Thank you. Faruk.

The red line indicates the audio must be rendered. This may be caused by several things but your playback settings may be set too high for your system to handle. You may have too many audio tracks for your computer to play in realtime.
Select one of the audio files in the timeline, get properties, not the audio format and sampling rate.
Now got to Sequence>Settings and determine if the settings match your audio settings.
Your online help system can guide you through adjusting your system settings, user settings and sequence settings.

Can't find where to change audio sample rate

I'm trying to change the audio sample rate but can't find where to change it

You can change it in SoundTrack Pro, or with QuickTime Pro.

Conforming media changed Audio sample rate to 20khz by mistake!!!

Has anyone had experience conforming media from 59.93 to 23.98 and Cinema Tools changes the audio sample rate? Where is the settings tabs for audio???

There are no options for audio - you can't change anything - when conforming (or reverse telecining) clips in Cinema Tools.
Is there any reason you're conforming from 60 to 24 in Cinema Tools? Did someone advise you to do that or is this a workflow that has been successful in the past?

Audio Sample Rate

Can I change the audio sample rate of a clip (imported from camcorder) "after" it's been imported into Final Cut X?

Thank you for the quick response. My video and audio are out of sync (imported from mini-DV camcorder). The audio sample rate is 32 kHZ, and I believe I should have used a "custom" sample rate setting of 48. I really don't want to start over with this project and re-import all of my footage, but that may be the best thing to do. I also learned from a previous post that I should capture no more than 10 mins. of footage at one time.
P.S. I'm about done with this camera!

Change capture settings to 32k audio sample rate???

I have a DVCAM tape that my client recorded and the audio sample rate is 32k. I have noticed that the audio seems to get out of sync when I capture it using the 48k NTSC. I also get a warning saying that my source tape's audio sample rate doesn't match the capture settings and that audio could be out of sync. I looked at past posts and it does seem to be the 32k verses 48k.
My question is how do I change my capture settings to 32k? I see how you do it on the sequence settings, but I can't figure it out on the capture settings.
Thanks,
John Schenkel

John,
I recently read a post where there were four likely answers to the problem, yet I was not sure which one was the best solution.
Why? Because even though the question was marked as answered the person posting the original question didn't mark which individual's answer was the solution.
Please help future users to find answers more quickly, who knows, you may find yourself in the same situation someday.

Comcast will not accept my spot because the audio sampling value of 44100 does not match the expected rate of 48000. Any ideas how to fix?

I am working with Final Cut Pro 10.1.4. I created a 30 second spot with a music bed. Comcast is rejecting the spot because the audio sampling rate does not match the actual audio values in the spot. They expected 48000 and my spot is 44100. This may be caused because I was forced to change the speed of the audio to work properly in the spot. The audio was sped up to 101%. First, is this what caused Comcast to reject and second, is there a way to restore the rate without slowing down the music bed?
Thanks!

FFirst check your project properties. The default is 48K.

Importing changes the audio quality of original video

When I import a video into a new project the audio sampling rate of the video goes down and the audio channel changes to mono though the video is stereo.
I have tried creating new projects changing the sequence presets to ones that include the higher sample rates and stereo, but this didn't work.
More info on the original raw video:
AVI
Frame size: 1280x720
Frame rate: 29/frames per second
Data rate: 5000kbps
Total bitrate 5192kbps
Audio:
Bit rate: 192 kbps
Channels: 2 (stereo)
Audio sample rate 44kHz
When I drag and drop this video into the project section of premiere, and I click the "Info" tab, I notice that the audio is "11025 Hz - 16-bit - Mono" which is different from the original video.
Does anyone know why this is and how I can fix it?
Thanks!

It might help if you were to post a screenshot with the
full details (codecs, etc.) of the .avi file in question.

Problem with audio sample rate when exporting

I am having an issue with my audio sample rate. For some reason it is set at 8 khz by defualt when I am exporting. This was not an issue until the latest update (2 weeks ago). I'll try and give all the info I can up front. Also I tried customer support...that was a nightmare.
Ok the issue I am addressing is that the audio sample rate when exporting is at 8khz by default. Which to my knowledge has NO relevant use what so ever. Even when I set the file format to h.264 it insists on resetting to 8khz. Even if I manually set everything look at the render queue and click on output module again it changes the sample rate back to 8 khz automatically which I must adjust again. Why can it not just be set at 48000 like every other adobe product is and like it used to be two weeks ago. Does anybody have an answer?

This problem is addressed by the After Effects CC (12.2.1) bug-fix update, which is now available:

Note the part at the end of that page about a crucial update for the Creative Cloud desktop application, which addresses some severe problems with AME, Premiere Pro, and After Effects.

Capturing issues-audio sample rate & locating timecode break

I am a first time FCP user.
I am working on an educational video with hours of DV source tapes.
The source tapes are from a 2R50MC Cannon mini DV camcorder also used as the deck I am capturing from via firewire. My scratch disk is Maxtor III 500GB external drive hooked up via a firewire (I'm realizing the firewire is years old could that be a problem?)
In my first capture test I captured 1 minute of tape by setting in and out points and after completeing the capture I received an error message—"The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these media files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape."
For the past day I have been scouring the user manual, this discussion group and training tapes from Lynda.com and can not resolve this issue. I have determined that the source tape is 12 bit or 32 kHz and yet can not find a way to set up capture preferences to 32 kHz. Is this the problem/resolution? Page 320 of the user manual shows the QuickTime Audio Settings dialog box but I can't find it in FCP or Quicktime. Is this where I make the change to 32kHz?
After doing the first test, I tried again and ran into a new problem—it stopped capturing with the message: Locating timecode break [press esc to abort]. It never seemed to resume capturing and I pressed escape to abort. If I'm reading FCP time code window correctly I received this time code break message within a section I had already captured previously (with the audio sync warning).
I have done several capture tests at different points in the tape and on different tapes all with the same results. I've used the capture clip and capture now buttons. I've tested with drop frame turned on and off. Confirmed my setting of: At timecode break "Make New Clip." Confirmed my Easy Setup as DV-NTSC. My capture preset is DV NTSC 48 kHz. I've turned off and on FCP. Restarted my computer. Restarted my computer with the shift key down and ran permissions.
Any ideas are GREATLY appreciated, T.

I am concerned about available memory when capturing to my hard drive and the babysitting and extra steps involved considering the amount of tape I want to capture...but it does work that's GREAT!
This is always a concern, but in your case I think having the camera and external on the same bus was causing your problem. You may have to capture a little and then transfer, rinse and repeat. Just don't try to do too much at once and let your System Drive get too full, you'll run into other problems there. Slow and steady is the pace!
I shouldn't have stacked my questions since you answered one and Chris answered the other. Don't know how to apply the answered question and who gets the points.
No problem, just mark it answered and divide up the solved and helpful points as you wish. All in all we really don't care too much about the points, but they do make us feel good! Thanks for your desire to use the forums properly.

Geting audio sample rate error, help

Hey all, been doing a massive project where I ma bring in tons of old 8 mm tapes, hi8 and digital 8. This one tape I brought on though however is giving me grief. I keep getting this error:
The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape.
If find this odd though cause the tape should be standard, NTSC dv 48 K. Any suggestions. Also how do I reset my final cut so that when I plug in a camera it always reads it as what it recognizes. I ask this because I had to used the setting uncontrollable device because on the original old 8mm tapes there is no time code so I had to capture that way.
Anyhow, any suggestions on this would be great for if I recapture. Cause I could line it up by eye but want to find the problem so I know for the future. Thank you.
Nathan

This is a recent problem that seems related to a recent upgrade of QuickTime. Here's why.
In the last month, a rash of these posts have begun to appear:
"DV Capture Audio problem"
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6708693&#6708693
"audio/video"
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6591262&#6591262
Plus this thread, plus my own.
In my case, nothing changed in my operating system or Final Cut Pro version. I upgraded to QuickTime 7.1.6, and the problem began. I have upgraded all the way to 7.4 to no avail. When I attempt to import a DV clip using the same Sony DVCAM deck that imported the same clip in December, I get the error every time. Nothing has changed in the tape, the deck, the Project or Final Cut. I am simply unable to import DV video. I can import other kinds (Panasonic P2, for example), but DV is a no go. I cannot get rid of this error.
