Converting audio recording 5.1 to stereo

I accidentally recorded in 5.1 and was wondering if I can convert it to stereo in Premiere Pro.
I will be creating a DVD to be played on regular TV and I am afraid 5.1 won't be suitable.

The DVD player will downmix for you if need be.

Converting audio recorded at 30 frames to 29.97

I just shot some footage with a Canon XH-A1 at 30P. I recorded sound with the camera onto the miniDV tape, but I also had a sound recordist recording with a separate recorder. He recorded at 30 fps, but after the shoot I realized my camera was at 29.97, not actually 30.
I have Soundtrack Pro 2.02 and FCP 6. With Soundtrack can I convert the 30fps audio files to 29.97? If so, how?
By the way, I tried bringing the separate audio files (a stereo pair) into my FCP sequence, and they aren't syncing up, though they're close.
ETA: OK, I just found pullup/pulldown--would "0.1% film to NTSC" be what I'm looking for?

Thanks for the reply. I'm new to Soundtrack--the pulldown feature doesn't actually convert the audio file, just the project, right? I'll start reading the Soundtrack manual, but I'm not quite sure how to proceed. Should I open the audio files in SP, make the pulldown change, save that project and open it in FCP? Or...?
OK, I just realized I could select the pulldown and "save as" an aiff file--I'm trying to import that into FCP and see if I get sync...

What is the best way to convert audio recording to PM3 and play on iWeb web site? I know nothing about this subject. Help please.

I hate iTunes and for quick conversions use the freeware Vox....

Capturing mono VHS footage, how do I convert audio to stereo?

I am creating dvd's from some old VHS tapes, and the audio track is mono, I want to know how to convert audio to stereo? Do I start with the audio settings on Mono or stereo, and then what is the next step to get mono audio converted to stereo?
As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post.

Are you wanting to add a second channel of audio along side the mono track?
Or, are you wanting to double the mon track into a faux-stereo track?
Either way, DO start with a stereo track on your audio settings.
But if your VHS audio is not split into two separate channels of sound, then there is no way to get true stereo.
However, for a faux-stereo sound, try copying the original mono track, paste it to a second audio track then nudge just that track by one frame.
Listen to it and if it doesn't give enough presence to the overall sound, try another frame nudge until you get the sound you like.
This isn't true stereo but will create more of an aural landscape that might satisfy your request.

Stereo Audio Record problem (While recording video as well)

Hi,
I just just bought Sony Xperia C3 dual yesterday. I'm having problem with audio recording. I installed the Sony audio recorder from Google play store but while recording in stereo mode with it the gain suddenly drops after 1/2 second(s). Same problem while recording a video with stock camera app as well, video quality is fine but the audio with it is,just worst. Tried third party app like regorge pro but faced the same problem. Tried disabling the AGC with it, but no good. Recording in mono mode just works fine and I get clear record.
Any solution?
Thanks.

@uliwooly This one i recorded today morning. The audio starts good & clear at the begining but just after one second it drops & then you can hear the bus engine sounds like waterfall. Here is the youtube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5H1jNxyYMlw Here's another video uploaded by a review site with the same problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3vKwydfN6U & more from youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GLLj2ommP4 then i used a third party audio recorder with mic switch option https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6d4uAEZFRE as usual with the rear mic the gain suddenly drops after second & you can hear some weird sounds like a "movie bomb" sound at 00:04, "rattle snake" sound at 00:05 & 00:12 & with the front mic starts at 00:17 you can hear the difference. It's mono but so clear & sharp. Finally, as i dont have the mic swith option while recording video, all videos i record will have the same problem. This is definitely not the typical "sony" thing to carry on.

Stereo audio recorder AAC 128+ Kbps for N8?

Is there a high quality stereo audio recorder available for N8?
The in-built app can only record at highest of 64kbps.
I'm looking for one with at least stereo 128kbps capability.
Thanks a lot!

Im also very surpriced that high quality stereo recording isnt availible in the default recorder, as a musician i would have very good use of it recording rehearsals. The sound is pretty good in video recording.
As it is now it is actually fairly good for being mono (but ooh so 60`s ) and not so 2011 ) and stereo recording adds alot to the separation as well as the enjoyment of a recording.
I havent yet been able to find an app for this.
Please Nokia or someone else that have the skill, help us out with this !

Stereo Audio recording in Captivate 6?

Hi, I am having problems with capturing stereo audio in sync with the video, in Captivate 6. I am making training videos for music software and have looped back the audio from the programme into Captivate, in order to record it's output. It monitors fine, but it looks as though Captivate is only recording the audio in mono - and there are no settings to change this. Is this the case? I really need stereo sound on the input, otherwise functions in the programme cannot be demonstrated correctly. I have looked through the forums and it would seem that stereo recording was definitely included in earlier versions (as it caused some users the opposite problem of sound from a microphone only appearing on one side). I am using Captivate version 6 on Windows 7. Please can you help me? Cheers, Mike

Hi Michael,
There is no option to select the audio recording as stereo or mono at time of recording.
Can you tell me that have you installed captivate as a part of suite or it is a stand alone Product?
If you have installed Captivate as a part of E-learning suite there is a software called as Adobe Auditon which also gets installed as a part of suite , which can serve your Purpose , It can record as stereo as well as mono. and you can directly insert the audio generated from this software in Captivate.
And In Captivate also there is an option in Edit > Prefrences>Publish settings.
You can uncheck the Publish as Mono option while Publishing and check if it works for you.
Please check the screenshot
Thanks and Regards

Mono audio recording to stereo

How can I split or change a single track mono audio recording so it will play as if it was in stereo (dual Track)
I'm using Premiere Elements 12.

aardga
The Fill in or Fill Right effect is an effect.
Do you know how to use effects in Premiere Elements 12? Same principles.
When you are in the Premiere Elements 12 Expert workspace and have clicked on fx Effects/Audio Effects/, you should see the following. The instructions clearly state: Drag and Drop an Effect on Clip(s)
If you are a new user to Premiere Elements video editing, the Premiere Elements 12 Help PDF might be a handy reference to get started.

But, never hesitate to ask for help if needed.

No Stereo audio recording in HD video recording.

Hi,
I have Nokia 701.
It's too bad that there is no true stereo audio recording while HD video recording.
Though in specification it is given that there are two microphones for stereo recording.

I was right there with you. I posted early on in this thread and was working with tech support on the phone. We worked for a few days and it was like I was having to do too much work on my end. Nothing was working and they were so busy. Someone else posted that they took theirs back and it was an easy swap. I had already made an appointment at the apple store as a backup so I decided to drive the 50 miles. It was so easy....the guy really did not care too much about me working with support. He just tried a restore and was able to repeat the issue. Not saying that all stores are like that but I have had very good results with other apple products and getting support at the genius bar. Good luck...but you may be waiting a while. Seems that the hot topic for them is really the "reception" issue.

How to convert a software instrument recording to an audio recording? Logic pro X

Hey I'm having serious trouble converting a software instrument recording to an audio recording. I'm trying to record this drum beat, then convert it to an audio file so i can chop it up and sample it on the EXS24. could anyone possibly provide any helpful insight to my dilema? Thank you very much!

im sorry i should've clarified a little further. it is on the drum machine feature in Logic pro X. i want to sample the 808 kick so i can change the pitch of it in the exs24 but whenever i go to "bounce in place" this message pops up:
""Bounce Regions" in Place can only process regions on audio tracks and/or software instrument tracks. Click “OK” to deselect all regions on other tracks and continue."
do you have any answers to this specifically?

My external audio recording device only records to the right channel. How do I send the sound in the right channel thru the left one in Final Cut to get a full stereo sound?

My external audio recording device only records to the right channel. How do I duplicate the sound in the right channel and run it to the left one in Final Cut to get full stereo sound?
I've already copied and pasted the right channel (A2) onto the left channel (A1) but that just doubled the volume on the right channel.
For instance, when I listen to my audio with headphones it only comes thru the right one. How do I make it so that it comes thru both headphones?

Stereo is something else. It is a sound field where the individual elements are located through varying the amount of electrical energy for each element delivered to each channel.
What you have is a mono source that should be panned to center. This will equally divide the signal so it will be delivered out both the L & R channels.
Load the original clip to the VIEWER and set the PAN to 0 (zero). Delete any duplicates. They are unnecessary.

How to convert audio to 'uncompressed' audio

It is obvious from all the reports, that there is a problem with FCPX audio en 'Lion".
I have experienced this too. To avoid this I have been trying to convert the audio of my movies to aiff.
So far I didn't succeed. My camcorder (panasonic SD900) records to surround or stereo and uses compression,
I do not know what format. So how can I convertcompressed audio to 'uncompressed' audio?

You can do this using a free application called MPEG Streamclip. Open your file, and then "Export Audio..." from the File Menu. Choose AIFF, 48Khz, and stero. (if you want to retain surround, it can be done but will be much more complicated). This will create an .aif file that you can now import and use in place of the audio that is part of the clip. If you have quicktime pro, you could also create a new .mov file with the video from the original media and the audio from the .aif file...then you can import the new .mov file to FCPX.

Audio, recorded separately, strays from sync

Hello,
I have three sources of media that I'm using in my project, which is a recording of a gig that my band played:
- Sony AVCHD video camera (front view), includes one video and a stereo pair
- Sony AVCHD video camera (side view), includes one video and a stereo pair
- three tracks of audio that were recorded using a separate multitrack audio recorder (Zoom R16).
I've figured out how to sync the sources together - I set an in point on a distinct piece of audio that exists in all three sources (actually it's someone coughing, I didn't think to have the drummer clap his sticks together before we started). Then I set an in point in the sequence, edited in the three sources, and adjusted the in points of the clips forward to the beginning of the set. At that point where the clips were matched up, the sources are perfectly in sync.
However, within 30 seconds before or after the sync point, some drift is evident in the audio that was captured on the R16. And a few minutes out, it's seconds off. I capture these gigs one set at a time, so we're talking about clips that are an hour long (we usually do two or three sets).
I didn't pay much attention to the detailed settings of the audio recorder before I captured the gig. Actually, I recall that the basic marketing/quickstart tutorials on the Apple website say you can pretty much use any video or audio in a single project in FCE and it would convert/transcode for you as necessary.
Had a look at the clip properties, and I see that the audio captured in the cameras is 48.0 KHz, while the R16 captured the audio at 44.1 KHz. If I'd noticed the difference beforehand I would have changed the R16's settings to match, just to be thorough - but I am a little disappointed - I'd thought that there would be compensation for differences like these... this is digital!
Could this difference in the sample rates be the problem? Regardless, can anyone suggest how I might be able to resample or convert the audio so that it doesn't drift like this?
Thanks much in advance, and cheers.

Hmmm ... honestly .... I am running out of ideas ...
Can I ask:
1. did you get both their starting point correct ?
2. Are the duration of both the video clips & audio clips you are trying to sync the same length ? That is, if the audio is 10 secs, then is the video also 10 secs ?
Thanks
Hey -
1. Yes, I'm certain that I matched up the in points correctly while making the edits. In the audio tracks, I zoomed in all the way so I could get sub-frame position - as described starting on pg 474 of the manual. At that point, they are in perfect sync. And as you get further away from that matched point in the sequence, the drift gets worse.
2. The length of the audio that was recorded on the cameras is exactly the same length as the video (of course). The audio clips recorded on the R16 are all exactly the same length as each other as well.
However the R16 clips are not the same length as the video clips, and the two videos are not the same length as each other. They are a few seconds different from each other, because of the way I start the recording - I step onto the stage and before we start playing, I use the infrared remote to start the recording on each of the cameras one at a time, and then I start the recording on the R16.
I don't actually know how exact clip lengths from separate recording sources could be achieved, and since I'm editing them in separately, I think it shouldn't make a different. The keyword being "shouldn't", of course. In any case, if you extend the clips all the way out to play all the available media in the track (using up all the handles), the extents of the clips in the tracks appear a few seconds different from each other, as they should.
Thanks for your suggestions, I'll keep trying to come up with something. Feel free to suggest other things you think of, I do appreciate your time and help.
I have run out of ideas ... Anyone here can help ?

Audio Filter missing: Internal Volume Stereo - corrupt project?

Hi,
I am getting this error when I open my project. In addition, no media will play in the project either in the sequence window or the source window.
It all appears and will scrub (with no audio), but will not play.
I dug around a bit and I found that there is a known bug with audio from XML's and that is what I am using (convinced my client to migrate from FCP to Premiere - please don't tell me I made a mistake).
Everything worked brilliantly for a week, including the addition of audio filters, and then all of a sudden - bang. No more.
I have painstakingly deleted every audio filter and I am still getting this error. I have also tried a re-install.
Another oddity is that when I try to quit Premiere, it will not quit all the way without a force quit!
I'm running CC 2014 on a brand new mac pro.
Desperate,
dw

Steve and Bill,
I follow your advice, but it did not solve the problem. It is true that problems began when I used ZOOM recorder at 98kHz/24 bit in my current project (I already changed ZOOM mode to 48kHz/16 bit), but could this be just a coincidence?
In the meantime I checked the rest of my 16 projects (.prel), which were fine before. To my surprise I found that although all of them were made using EXACTLY the same method, some of them are still OK, but most I can not Playback. The messages appearing are of three types:
1. "Audio Filter missing: Internal Balance".
2. "Audio Filter missing: Internal Volume Stereo".
3. "This type of file is not supported or required codec is not installed".
In one case, when I opened a project the first time, the message was "This type of file is not supported or required codec is not installed", but when I opened it second time it said " Audio Filter missing:Internal Volume Stereo". It seems to be random.
Some projects can be opened, but when I try to Playback there is no sound.
I am completly lost. Please help.
