Cutting with a different audio source

Hi,
my main purpose working with FCE is to cut Videos from my seminars and lectures. The camera (with built in microphone) is usually stationary and I have a head-set microphone which is amplified in the (big) room and recorded on a MP3-Recorder.
For cutting I would like to use the audio source from the mp3-recorder, it is much clearer, does not have any disturbances from the audience etc...
The problem is, that the timing does not really match between the two machines. For example I have a lecture with 1:08:20 video but the recorded audio on the mp3 recorder is (for whatever reason I do not understand) 1:08:28 long.
I have not yet found a solution for this. Is it possible to put markers on the two files (video and audio) in the timeline at exactly the same point and then say "stretch video to match audio markers"?
Any help much appreciated. THX

Convert the MP3 file to an AIFF file with the settings that match your FCE Sequence. Typically that would be AIFF at 48khz, 16 bit.

  • How to get/mix/stream the best sound in/out with 2 different audio source ?

    Hello folks,
    audio input:
    Source01 => Microphone Beyerdynamic MCE86II Shot gun => XLR => Sound Card M-Audio Firewire Solo => firewire 400 => firewire 800 adaptor => FireWire 800 port.
    Source02 => *MacBookPro5,2, Intel Core 2 Duo 3.06 GHz, 4 GB => ???
    Audio output: *MacBookPro5,2, Intel Core 2 Duo 3.06 GHz, 4 GB _Built-in Input_
    Basically, i want to use my MBP as an AUDIO IN SOURCE and AUDIO OUT SOURCE. What should I do ?
    *same MBP.
    Merci for your help.

    If I understand your question correctly...
    try the following
    from Sources, choose the greyed out streaming library that you want to be rid of...in your case, make sure it is the right one, since they both have the same name.
    You should get a screen that says "Library Unavailable" with 2 menu choices below that, "OK" and "Disconnect from iTunes".
    Choose disconnect from iTunes and the library should be gone from your Sources.

  • Can one video track play with 9 different audio tracks?

    If we create a dvd with a 20 mins voiceover video in 6 chapters, but there were 9 language versions inc English, could we use the same video track, playing with a different audio track for each language, to save space?

    Almost. You have have 8 audio streams (AS) so you'd need to have 2 tracks and split the audio across them. So you could have Track 1 8x AS and Track 2 1x AS. T1 5x AS & T2 4x AS. You get the idea...
    You dont need 1 Track per Track but you will need at least two. Keep an eye on your total bandwith for each track also. Remember to budget for the audio before you encode,

  • Rough cuts from Prelude lack audio source

    Hey everyone,
    this is my first project with a Prelude to Premiere Pro workflow and so far everything worked just fine.
    Although after creating a couple of rough cuts in Prelude and sending them to Premiere Pro I am experiencing a problem with the imported audio:
    All clips within a rough cut do not play back any audio even though they did in Prelude. I found out that after beeing sent to Premiere all clips seem to loose their audio track source.
    So what I can do to relink my audio is to righclick->audio channels -> choose the right source. If I want to do this for multiple clips at once it will only work for clips shot with the same camera / format / channel names.
    As I am working with footage of three different cameras I am trying to understand what's going on.
    Has anyone of you experienced a similar issue?
    Thanks for your help.

    Xoxidine,
    Prelude CC, the new version that has the new feature to automatically conform clips after ingest, will be shipping June 17. http://www.adobe.com/products/prelude.html
    As to forcing a reconform, please try this:
    Quit Prelude
    Clear out your Media Cache Files folder, or if you can determine specifically the files to delete-- they're named in such a way you can tell which files go with which clips surgically remove the files for the clips you want to reconform
    Mac: delete the .cfa and .pek files located in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Media Cache Files/
    remember "~" indicates your Home directory. On my system this is located at /Users/wplate
    another point: On Lion and Mtn Lion the Library folder is hidden by default. Hold the Option key while selecting the Go menu in the Finder and "Library" appears. Choose that and a window pointing to ~/Library appears
    Win: delete the .cfa and .pek files located in C:\Users\<your user>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Media Cache Files\AppData is a hidden folder. Once I was in \Users\Wes I then clicked into the address bar to type the AppData name and after hitting Enter that directory was opened.
    It is also possible your media cache files are set to be elsewhere. The setting is in the Prelude preferences in the Media category.
    Relaunch Prelude
    Open the clip again, it should reconform
    I tested this with Prelude CS6 on both Mac and Win and it worked for me on both platforms.

  • Trouble syncing two different audio sources

    I have a JVC miniDV camcorder that does not have an external mic jack, but it does record sound in stereo from the internal microphone. I have rigged up my video ipod to record with a stereo lavalliere microphone on the person I am interviewing, then it's transfered to itunes. It records wonderfully, however when I try to mix the two audio sources in imove 06 or in Garageband, the recordings become out of sync in a few seconds. Any suggestions?

    I think I resolved the issue. Here's the scoop. Apparently, the setting on my JVC camcorder (GR-D370U) was set to 12 bit.
    Also, the MicroMemo XtreameMac ipod recorder has two quality settings to record on Low- 22.05 kHz and High-44.1 kHz.
    the files are then saved in WAV format.
    I did a one minute test run with the camcorder set at 16 bit and the ipod recorder set at "high." I put them both on imovie 06 and YES it worked! It never went out of sync!
    I am not sure I totally understand why the two now match up, because I thought that the camcorder audio records at 48 kHz, but I'm not complaining! Anyway, thanks for everyone's comments. When I can afford to upgrade to a new camcorder with mic jacks, I will. But in the meantime, this will do!

  • Direct 2 Different Audio Sources to 2 Different Outputs?

    Hi, I have searched for this but could not find it. I have a 3,1 Mac Pro running 10.6.8. I want to watch and listen to a video file that has it's audio sent to the Line Out where I have powered, desktop speakers. At the same time I would like to hear either Pandora or iTunes being played through the USB DAC I have connected to my home stereo system.
    Is it possible?
    Thanks,
    John

    You could use Audio Hijack Pro
    <http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/>
    Hijack the application, use Mute so it won't send audio to the normal output, then add the Auxiliary Device Output effect to send the audio to the desired device.

  • Exporting from PPro CC - Exporting using Match Sequence Settings issue with 24 bit audio

    I am having an issue exporting my sequence which contains final AIFF mix (24 bit 48 kHz) into a 'same-as-source' ProRes 422 file with 24 bit audio. I am specifically trying to export media with 'Match Sequence Settings' checked to create an identical output of what my sequence is. I wind up only creating a PR422 with 16 bit audio rather than 24 bit audio.
    My sequence contains ProRes 422 media and 24 bit AIFF final stereo mix (1 audio file) from our Sound department.
    My sequence is currently setup as "Custom" at 1920x1080, 23.976 fps, Square Pixels, Progressive, etc. Audio is 48 kHz (I don't see an option for choosing different bit rates in the 'Sequence Settings').
    Using 'Match Sequence Settings', my options to alter the audio are "greyed out" and unavailable. I'm not sure why 'Match Sequence Settings' doesn't recognize that I am cutting with 24 bit audio and, instead, only exports 16 bit audio.

    Always skip Match Sequence Settings and set up the export manually.

  • Different Audio Track for Tittle

    Did some googling and searching on here and can't figure this out. I have my movie done and want to add a tittle page or series of tittle pages with a different audio track than the one on my movie, how would I go about doing this?
    Thanks
    Alex G.

    Hi,
    You can add audio directly to each clip or of course you can add audio to the whole project. You can control where the background music starts and stops too. The link below is very informative and shows you just how to do this.
    http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/imovie_09stone.html#audio%20adjustments
    Personally, I have found that if I export my finished movie to the media browser and select the 'mobile' size for speed, as you will have to republish after you add the new soundtrack anyway! I then open Garageband and select movie track. I then select the movie from the media browser within Garageband and drag it into the track. I am now able to have full audio editing control, I can use several different pieces of music, placing them where I want and at what volume I choose. When I have finished my audio track, I delete the movie track and the movie audio track and save my file. This leaves my new music track. I then export this track to iTunes. Next, I open iMovie and I locate my soundtrack and drag it into the movie as a background track. I have found this to be the method that gives me full control.
    Good luck!

  • Is it possible to add two different audio tracks to a clip which can be selected separately in the final clip?

    I'm trying to edit a short clip with two different audio tracks (audio in two different languages). The tracks are not supposed to overlap but rather should be able to be selected individually in the final clip. Do I need special software or is iMovie actually able to accomplish that?

    I seriously doubt that this is possible. I think when you get this kind of option on a DVD, the audio and video streams are encoded separately and you run the language of your choice by choosing it from a menu.

  • Rip video with secondary/dual audio stream from dvd to ipod

    I see that my 160gb ipod has an option in the video section for secondary audio. I assume this means a video file or .mp4 can be created with 2 different audio tracks. I want to be able to have a video file with the standard audio and commentary track. I have searched online and I have seen a couple of sites that claim their software can do that but the demos Ive tried havent worked. Does anyone have any experience in this? Or does anyone know of the definitive program to use?

    i just downloaded this program, but when i pop in a dvd, it won't open up. do i have to be registered in order for this to work properly?

  • Different in/out audio sources possible?

    Is it possible to use one audio source for input and another one for output in Logic Pro 7.1 on MacOS 10.4.2?
    This is what I'm trying to do:
    - Audio in: Logitech USB Headset (mic and headphones)
    - Audio out: Emagic A62m (external USB sound card)
    The problem is, I can only select one audio driver in Logic. If I select the USB headset, I can record with the headset mic, but then all outgoing sound from Logic is played through the headset only. If I instead select the Emagic A62m audio driver, the sound is played through the sound card but I can't use the headset mic to record.
    The system sound and sound from all apps except for Logic is played through the Emagic soundcard, which is set up as default sound out in system prefs. The headset is set as the default input source.
    The Emagic sound card doesn't have any mic-in port, neither has my Powermac G5. I can't afford a soundcard with a mic input PLUS a good quality mic. This is why I plan to buy a good quality USB mic like
    -Blue Snowball (http://www.macobserver.com/columns/rantsandraves/2005/20050722.shtml) or
    -Samson C01U (http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=1810&brandID=2)
    But unless I find out a good way to use the mic as a mic and loudspeaker at the same time :-D it seems that it will be pretty impossible to use a USB mic with Logic?
    Even in such a simple app as Garageband it is possible to select a different source for sound in and sound. How can I setup Logic the way I need?

    since apple took over logic, and the development into OSX.. the way audio, midi and logic work are all tied in at an operating system level. so it's just how you look at it: from tiger onwards, logic does have this feature built in.
    for them to go and add separate audio features to logic now would be a complete reversal of everything that was intended with OSX and core audio.

  • USING TEMPLATE IN A DIFFERENT DATA SOURCE BUT WITH THE SAME GL QUBE

    Hi, I want to chance connection in a SV Workbook to another data source. As we are having several test instances I need to be able to use the same Query workbook on different instances.
    I've not been able to reproduce the steps to get the SV to ask for the new instance/source.
    Below is what I did before but can't get to work again. Please advice
    1. Open Excel and Open the SV Template you want to use that containing a different Shared URL (You can check this with (T) Smat View > Sheet Info. Login as User/PW: Casey.Brown/<weekly PW>
    2. Make sure SV Options Shared Connection URL is set to point to the new instance SV > Options > Advanced > Shared Connections URL, for example 'https://fapXXXX-bi.oracleads.com/workspace/SmartViewProviders' (B) OK
    3. Open Smart View Panel Navigator > Open > Smart View Panel
    4. Select a 'Recently Used' connection in the Panel that points to the new instance. If you don't have it create one by connecting to your new instance and then Disconnect All.
    5. In the Login to Fusion Applications window login as User/PW: Casey.Brown/<weekly PW>
    (B) Sign In
    NOTE: You have to click on button Sign In. You cannot press enter on keyboard as this makes the login window to pop up again. This is a known issue.
    6. In the Connect to Data Source pop up window login as User/PW: Casey.Brown/<weekly PW>
    (B) Connect
    A pop up window 'Smart View' will pop up: 'The worksheet contains data from prior operation. What do you want to do with the contents of the sheet?
    -> Clear sheet contents and POV
    -> Reuse sheet contents only (Free operation will take place, existiong POV will be lost.)
    -> Reuse sheet contents and POV (New ad hoc connection/Smart Slice must be consistent wit existing contents.)
    7. Select 'Reuse sheet contents and POV
    Depending on seeded data member changes you may receive 'Input Grid contains unknown Memebers' pop up window.
    (B) OK
    If you get above you need to correct unvalid members.
    For example removing Budget-Budget and replace it with Budget- for the Scenario dimension. Then you will be able to use the sheet with the new data source.
    Please advice on what step is needed to get the system to provide the pop up window 'Smart View': 'The worksheet contains data from prior operation. What do you want to do with the contents of the sheet?
    Thanks,
    Max.

    You can only sync with one iTunes library. However, you can manage music and videos among different computer/iTunes libraries. See:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    If you want to change syncing computers see:
    Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
    If all the media is in the iTunes library of the second computer then you can omit the transferring media steps.

  • Same source file name with a different extension

    Hi Amareshwar,
    you can write a java code (either in UDF or import in imported archive and use in imterface mapping).
    The piece of code is..
    DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) myParam.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey Filekey = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
    String OriginalFileName = conf.get(Filekey);
    if (OriginalFileName != null)
    NewFileName=OriginalFileName.replaceAll(".csv",".txt");
    conf.put(Filekey,NewFileName);
    And in Integration Directory>Configuration Scenario>your communication channels (both sender and receiver) just select
    Adapter specific message attributes- File name
    This would solve your problem.....

    OK, for limiting User Operations, one can Permit All, None, Custom. This explains this process. Note: the Operations vary by whether you apply these to a Timeline, or to a Menu:
    To disable or edit user operations
    Select a timeline or menu, or click the Disc tab.
    Note: Disabling user operations at the Disc level disables that operation in DVD elements too. You can, however, enable a function at the disc level and then turn it off for specific menus, timelines. and other elements.
    Click the Set button at the bottom of the Properties panel.
    Select the desired options and then click OK.
    All Enables viewers to execute any operation.
    None Disables all viewer operations.
    Custom Lets you specify which operations are enabled. Deselect the user operations you want to disable:
    Play Timeline Lets the viewer enter a number of a timeline to play.
    Change Presentation Mode Lets the viewer set the playback mode to 4:3 or 16:9.
    Play Chapter Lets the viewer play a specific chapter.
    Note: Disabling Play Chapter also disables the Search For Chapter operation.
    Search For Chapter Lets the viewer search for a specific chapter.
    Play Timecode Lets the viewer enter a timecode to play or search for.
    Stop Lets the viewer stop the DVD.
    Pause Lets the viewer pause the DVD.
    Previous/Next Chapter Lets the viewer move among chapters.
    Title Remote Lets the viewer use the Title button on the remote control.
    Menu Remote Lets the viewer use the Menu button on the remote control.
    Change Audio Tracks Lets the viewer change audio tracks while content is playing.
    Change Subtitle Tracks Lets the viewer change the subtitle track when content is playing.
    Resume Lets the viewer resume play from where content was stopped.
    Arrow And Enter Keys Lets the viewer use the arrow and enter keys on the remote control.
    Personally, I would not want to lock the user out of too many controls, as they might become highly frustrated and think that the DVD has malfunctioned.
    Hope that this helps,

  • Multiple closed captions with different audio

    Hi there,
    I have several buttons on a slide that each play different audio when clicked.
    Is there any way I can add closed captions for each of these separately?
    Thanks,
    Mandy

    If your REAL requirement here is to allow the learner to play a number of different audio clips with accompanying text transcript of the voiceover then there's a far easier method to achieve that resul.
    Just add rollover captions and add the audio clips to the caption part of the object.  Add the transcript of the audio clip as the text in the caption.  Then when the learner places their mouse over the rollover hit area, the caption will appear, the audio clip will play, and the learner can view the transcript in the caption.  As soon as they move their mouse off the hit area the clip will stop playing.
