Editing audio after extracting it

Hi, had a quick browse and not sure if this has been dealt with in the forum but......
I have a video of a performance which I now just want to make an audio file from and so I extracted all audio from all clips first before working into it. It seems that now when I want to edit some unwanted conversation from the audio it just edits the visuals but leaves audio intact.
Should I have done all editing first before extracting or have I missed something?
thankyou!!

Hi again!
I downloaded audacity and opened my quicktime.aiff project in it to edit then when I wanted to save/close it as aiff. to import back into imovie, it wouldn't let me saying no other programmes can open aud files. It wanted me to share it as either wav or mp3 file but when i selected mp3 it said audacity doesn't share automatically and wanted me to find another file/prog (don't know) which i don't have. So it seems my audacity edited audio is no use now.
I have just gone back to imovie and extracted my audio and now want to create the best audio file/disc I can from this.
What is the best/pro (quality) way of going about this in imovie?
And/or have I missed something with audacity?
thankyou for any help!!

  • Editing after extracting audio?

    Hi there,
    I am running iMovie HD, and have a question about editing.
    I extracted the audio from my video clip, and now I want to do some editing. However, whenever I make an edit to the video clip, the audio doesn't reflect the edit and immediately gets out of sync.
    Is there anyway to recombine the audio and video? Or, can I just make the audio take the same cuts as the video?
    I need to use the extracted audio, as I made some changes to it.
    Thanks for any help!

    Robert,
    The extract audio command really places a copy of a the audio from a clip into one of the two audio tracks. At the same time it lowers the volume level in the original video to zero.
    As you've discovered, once extracted, the extracted copy becomes it's own entity and will not reflect any further edits to the video clip.
    At this point you could reset the volume in the video to 100% and re-extract or try to edit your audio to reflect the changes to your video.

  • Crackle in Audio after Editing Audio Timing

    I've recorded all my audio voiceovers using Captivate and I'm now using the "Edit Audio Timing" tool inside Captivate to line up my audio with my slides.  Crackles, which weren't present before, are developing in my audio when I cut and paste the audio and change the length of my individual slides.  This seems to be soundcard / OS independent as the same problem occurs on both my laptop and desktop with completely different configurations.  I'm an engineer at small recording studio so I understand how to work with audio.  The problem isn't occurring where I'm cutting and pasting audio.  It's happening intermittently during each audio clip.
    This seems to be a bug in the software, but if any of you have experience with this and understand the problem, I'd really appreciate any guidance or possible work around ideas.
    Thank you.

    Hi there
    What happens if you create that audio as MP3 and import to Captivate? Do you still get the Rice Frippies when you publish? (Don't touch the audio with Captivate at all. Just import)
    I once asked a Captivate engineer about this. I was advised that Captivate doesn't touch MP3 and just allows it to pass on through to the SWF output as long as you don't make any edits to it in Captivate. But this was a version or two back. So things may have changed.
    Additionally, I would never ever recommend using the Edit Audio Timing. What you are doing is causing Captivate to glue together and re-slice at a different spot with the assorted audio clips.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How can i quick edit Audio( increase bass) of a single file?

    Hi everyone,
    Im new to FCPX. I have a bunch of videos of music gigs ive played and would like to increase the bass (via equalizer) on most of them. All these videos are already converted into an "Apple Friendly" format and are sitting comfortably in my Itunes Video folder. How can i quickly increase the bass in each video (Without having to tediously export one by one) in FCPX and do a quick overwrite over the original video without having to make an EXTRA file?
    THanks

    ok.
    "Why don't you increase the bass with the equalizer in FCP? Do it to one clip and use paste attributes to apply it to other clips."
    1) How do i copy the attributes after making the changes??
    2) How do i paste the attributes onto the next file?
    Thanks.

  • How to send FCP edited audio clips for processing in Soundtrack?

    Hello
    How do I send just the edited audio clips from hour long files to be processed in Soundtrack from Final Cut?
    I need help as I'm trying to adjust some edited audio clips in Soundtrack Pro but when I send them from FCP to Soundtrack - it opens the whole original audio file and then any adjustments I apply in Soundtrack are being processed over the whole audio file not just the short edited audio clip that I want to adjust.
    Normally I don't mind as my scenes are usually short and Soundtrack analysis over the whole scenes audio is usually desirable, but this projects files have been transfered from tapes as hour long AVI files (all the tapes clips transfered into one hour long files) and every FCP edited audio clip I send is being treated as an hour long audio file in Soundtrack.
    I'm sure there's a simple answer for settings but I haven't been able to find it.  Any advice appreciated.
    Barra

    Thanks Javi, my sequence is an hour and half duration so what I'm trying to do is save processing time in Soundtrack by just processing adjustments on the few audio clips that need processing.
    I have set Soundtrack to open referenced audio only and with 5 sec in and out handles, but it still imports the whole original audio file into Soundtrack timeline upto the selected clip, I then double click in Soundtrack on the clip in brackets, and it then selects just the audio clip I want to adjust, then Soundtrack will just process on the edited clip but when I 'render to action' it seems to apply changes to whole original audio file - taking longer than I want.... frustrating
    Also the sound always sounds very different in FCP than Soundtrack even after 'rendering to action' and rendering in FCP... this is not the easy workflow I expect from such expensive software programs, I understood that they work together in a fully integrated way, what's the problem! This is wasting my precious time and preventing me from editing not helping me, this is a common problem and yet I can find no help in the user manual - I'm not impressed!

  • Edit audio window not visible in Captivate 5 for Mac

    After putting closed captions into a project I went back to edit them and now the Edit Audio window doesn't appear at all. The captions and audio playback fine on preview. When I go to the Edit Audio window the rest of the application is disabled as if the window was open, but it doesn't appear anywhere. I've reset the workspace, rebooted, uninstalled and reinstaled, and created a new project, imported audio to a slide and still see no Edit window.

    Also, I've downloaded a trial version of Captivate on a different computer and the same project file plays fine and I get the Edit Audio window and Closed Captions. But even with an uninstall and new download of Captivate on the old computer these are invisible in *all* projects on that computer. All settings at default. What local settings could be doing this on that computer? Other Captivate pop-up windows work fine.

  • Bad sound in my x-fi audio after windows upd

    I have accidentally downloaded this @ windows update on tuesday?
    Creative - Sound - Creative X-Fi Audio Processor (WDM)Creative Sound sofware update released in June, 2007?
    After that all my sound options were gone and i have a terrible bad sound.
    Is there anyone who can help me to solve is this problem?
    I am running win xp

    If you need to remove entries from the registry it's not as bad as some people make it to be. You do have to be very careful because it can disable your system. First go to the Device Manager and uninstall your sound card. Go to Start Menu and click on RUN, enter "regedit" and hit OK. Click on the + tabs by My Computer then HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
    Make?a backup copy?by going to the FILE tab at the top and select the Export option. Name the file HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and save?it to your desktop. You can use this file to restore your registry to?it's original state?if needed.
    Now click SYSTEM and then CurrentControlSet then click on and highlight Services. Go back to the top?and under the Edit tab select Find. Enter "Creative" in the box and then click on the Find Next tab. This will find any reference to the word Creative. Any time you find a reference delete the folder that the reference exists in. Go back up to the Edit tab after each time you delete a folder and click the Find Next tab and it will search for the next reference. Do this until you find all references in the Services folder. This should remove all the drivers for your Creative sound card but will also remove any drivers for ALL Creative products on your computer. If you only have the sound card this won't be a problem. Close the Registry Editor and restart you computer. You should be able to reinstall your card with the original CD or the driver of your choice. If you don't use the CD you'll have to tell Windows where to find the drivers. Restart your system a couple of times to make sure all your services load and it runs as it should. When your satisfied that all is Ok you can delete the file you saved to your desktop. ?Just be very careful what you delete and you will be OK. If this doesn't work you may have to format the hard dri've and start from scratch. Good luck.

  • Problem editing audio timings

    Help !!!
    While editing audio timings the file size increases.....often
    doubling in size for not apparent reason

    Hi Deeb07,
    First, be sure this is actually a problem for you. If it is
    just the "idea" that the file is larger that bothers you, try to
    ignore it. But if it is affecting your machine's performance while
    working with (editing) the project, then it is an issue that needs
    to be corrected, so read on ...
    Captivate creates and maintains two file-types for each audio
    clip. One is a WAV file for editing purposes, and the other is a
    MP3 (created from the WAV) which is used in the published output.
    When you edit the audio, the newly changed WAV file is probably
    added to your library, creating the larger working file - it should
    not affect your output SWF file.
    If file-size is excessive after completing your changes -
    repeat, after completing your changes - you can usually affect a
    huge decrease in file size by the following actions.
    1) Use FILE > SAVE AS to create a copy, to protect the
    original
    2) On the new copy, go to AUDIO > ADVANCED AUDIO
    3) Select all audio files on your slides (CTRL + A is the
    shortcut)
    4) Export all to an empty folder - be sure to include both
    file-types
    5) With ALL audio still selected, use the "DELETE" icon to
    delete all
    *Note: First, make a note of which audio file goes with each
    slide
    6) SAVE your project, with NO audio
    7) IMPORT the previously exported MP3 files back into proper
    slides
    **Note: Captivate will automatically reproduce the WAV files.
    8) SAVE once more - your CP file size should be much smaller
    now.
    Hope this helps. Another member and I recently used these
    steps to reduce one of his CP files from nearly160Mb to less than
    55 Mb, and I'm confident it will work for you as well.
    Have a good day!

  • After Extracting

    Hi all,
    I am so stuck and it will no doubt be something very simple, however my problem is: After extracting an image from it's original background, the background surrounding the image is now transparent I want to then move my extraction onto another page so I've already got that photo I want up and drag my extraction onto the page. Now this is the problem the extraction when dragged to the new photo is not with a transparent background it comes with the same as though it has never been extracted. I have tried saving the extraction first, closing it down and then re opening the new saved extraction then dragging that onto the photo still it shows up with a un-transparent background. I used to use photoshop elements 5 and I never had any such issues. Now I have purchased photoshop elements 6 and am stuck with this problem. I don't know what the heck is going on and why it won't let me place an extracted object into the new photo is it something to do with the new photo as in do I need to click on something to allow it to take extracted pictures? It's driving me insane so please if someone is around please help me sort this out, thanks in advance.
    Wiggywoggy

    OOppss sorry Yes I have the problem solved :) it was a matter of placing two photos side by side in the work edit space and that solved the problem doing it the other way like one used to be able to do in PSE 5 is not the same as in 6, thanks for all your suggestions :)

  • Premiere Pro to Adobe Audition Dynamic link does not work. Cannot edit audio in Audition.

    Trying to edit Audio from Premiere Pro within Audition thru the Dynamic link but it does not fire up Audition to edit. Seems like a common problem/bug. But no one has posted a solution. Please Help
    -Windows 7
    -Premiere Pro CC 2014
    -Adobe Audition CC 2014

    You dont understand it was all working fine in the previous Adobe versions. matter of fact you can go on youtube and see a couple of videos that shows the work flow between Premiere Pro and audition by way of Dynamic link. If you edit a video clip in Premier Pro and want to add some music or simply edit the audio that is contained in the video there was a time within Premiere Pro you can just right click "Edit in Adobe Audition" and Audition would open with the audio clip in place. Much in the same way Premiere Pro works with After Effects thru the Dynamic Link. The Dynamic Link is the bridge between applications to work with each other. For some reason Premiere Pro and Audition Dynamic Link is not working properly.

  • Adobe Presenter/ Edit Audio Feature

    I am struggling with Adobe Presenter and the edit audio feature.
    First, I am in a Win 7 environment with Administrator rights. Second, I am using MS Office 2010 (PowerPoint 2010) and Adobe Presenter 7.0 (as a part of Adobe E-Learning Suite CS4).  
    I recently imported into my Powerpoint presentation  a large MP3 audio file (137 MB) using Presenter's audio import function.  Presenter imported this audio file with no issues.  But since the import, I experience some odd behaviors with Presenter.  The first issue is that the Move To Next Markeroption (Ctrl M) is grayed out so I am unable to mark where next slide goes.  The next oddity is sometimes when the play feature in engage, the position indicator moves, but no sound is played.   My speakers are on and it just played a few moments ago.
    I have reconverted the mp3 and re-imported it multiple times.  I have tried importing a WAV file in lieu of the mp3 and still experience these issues.  The only thing that I can find that clears it is to close out PowerPoint/Presenter.  Then, I have to relaunch the file.  At first it will work, but then it will return to this odd behavior.
    Any suggestions for a remedy would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks very much.

    Hi Vikram
    Thank you for the suggestions.
    I have completed the tests and updates mentioned below but am still waiting for the client to test the recording again.
      Are your video card driver is up to date? Please check whether you have the latest driver from the manufacturer’s site. Point 2 below will help you in finding the manufacturer’s identity.   – Yes driver has now been updated
      Are all unnecessary applications closed? – have advised client to close all unnecessary apps at next recording
      Do you have sufficient free space on your hard disk? At least 5 GB is needed, but around 15 GB is recommended. Yes – more than 100GB free
      Are your webcam drivers up to date? It is recommended to install the webcam driver from the webcam cd or the webcam company’s site. Using the inbuilt webcam only – the test with external webcam was on a loaned device
      Are you capturing your video in a well-lit environment? Most webcams perform poorly in bad lighting. Yes the area is well lit
    After the next recording I will let you know result and include screen shots if it is an unsuccessful test.

  • Problems with audio after playback

    Hi fox5urf3r,
    Welcome to the forum. I would suggest that you try listening on other speakers. Sounds OK to me.
    Thanks,

  • Audio Tip: Do not edit audio in Presenter

    After much wasted time trying to figure out why is was not playing back properly with missing audio I wanted to pass this tip along...
    With Presenter 7.0.6 or 7.0.7 do not edit audio. This includes inserting silence and cutting out audio.
    For some reason Presenter created MULTIPLE MP3 files for each slide. I have one slide that has 55 seconds of audio and Presenter has split that into 16 different MP3 files. Some are .5 seconds long. This seems to mess up the play back sometimes freezing up playback.
    Record your audio using something else and import one MP3 for each slide and then add the slide timing.

    Hey Frank. This is a good tip. Ever since Presenter changed the way they handle audio files, we have stopped recording our audio in Presenter; we all happen to have Captivate licenses on my team so we use it to record and edit all audio before we export to Presenter. If we have to make any changes, we also go back to Captivate and import the changed audio again. We tried working with the Adobe "support" for months on this issue and got nowhere. Each time you alter audio, even if you remove your breathing sounds, if divides the audio into two parts at the place where you changed it. So, yes, for longer pieces of audio, you end up with multiple files. Presenter does "merge" them together when you publish; however, it doesn't do a very good job of it. So every time the playbar reaches one of these split sections of the audio, it has a little glitch.
    Now that you can record audio in PowerPoint and since the PowerPoint integration is so much better in Captivate, we will be dropping our Presenter licences. We may keep one or two so we can update existing modules. Unfortunately when the product has too many glitches and the support is not good (we had Gold or Platinum support too), you can't afford to stay with the product. We've used it for about 6 years.

  • Editing audio adds silent sections to other slides

    I have Captivate 7. The audio was created as narration at the time of recording the video (slides). I am using Demonstration mode.
    When I edit the project audio, let's say in frame 2, blank spaces are added into other frames of the audio file. Often this occurs in the middle of a word so that the audio is now stuttering. It seems to happen in random sections of the audio.
    Editing can also cause timing problems. My frame positions move their placement along the audio, i.e. sometimes after editing in one location a word (in a different location of the audio) will be split between two frames when prior to editing the word was completely in one frame.
    Every time I fix an issue in one area it causes a new issue to occur in another area of the audio. I shouldn't to have to export the audio to freeware in order to get my project completed. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    It sounds like you recorded your audio in one go and spread it across all slides (perhaps during the actual capture session) rather than recording slide by slide.
    You need to break your audio into separate chunks.  One clip per slide is the ideal.
    If you go to each specific slide and move the audio clip there away from the beginning of the slide at least one tenth of a second, and create a similar gap at the end of the slide, then Captivate will break up your audio into multiple clips.  This will then allow you to edit audio on one slide without affecting other slides or their timing.
