Exporting audio from FCE to Quicktime

I have a problem with exporting audio. I have audio in my final cut express video where only 1 channel was used in the recording (left side), so when I export to quicktime...I can only hear the volume in one side. Is there a setting where I can export audio so that I can hear in both channels in quicktime? Thanks much!

If you have empty recordings in the timeline delete them. Then select everything in the timeline and press Cmd-period to set the pan to center.

Problem when exporting audio from Premiere Pro v4.2.1 into wave 5.1 format

Hello to Adobe experts!
After installing of last updates for Adobe Premiere Pro (v4.2.1) and for Media Encoder (v4.2.0.006) the was a problem:
Now I cannot to export audio from adobe sequence into uncompressed wave format with 5.1 channels settings. Source m2ts video files in sequence are with 5.1 audio.
What I doing:
1) in Premiere I execute "File\Export\Media"
2) Export settings are:
- format: Windows Waveform
- audio codec: Ucompressed
- basic audio settings: 44100Hz, Channels: 5.1, Sample Type 16bit
3) After OK button it opens Adobe Media Encoder.
4) After pressing Start Queue in Adobe Media Encoder there is a message "Error compiling movie. Unknown error"
In earlier versions it worked fine.
Can you help me with this problem?

Here are the options, from a sequence with 5.1 master track:
and with Surcode:
Notice that first one does only give stereo as an option. Nothing more. With Surcode it gives you 5.1 sound.

Can't Export from FCE to QuickTime Movie w/o recompression

I have problems with choosing the correct settings for export of a FCE video clip to QuickTime Movie. I want the best possible quality (without recompression).
In the manual it says:
"Exporting a Self-Contained Movie Without Recompressing the Media
If you choose to export a self-contained movie, you have the option to not recompress the media in your clip or sequence. If you deselect the Recompress All Frames option and choose Current Settings from the Setting pop-up menu, Final Cut Express simply copies frames from existing media files into the new file with no recompression."
I can't find that option in FCE 4.01 - is it a mistake in the manual? My source media was captured from miniDV tape and the captured media file has the following formate:
Codec: DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, Linear PCM, Timecode
Color profile: SD (6-1-6)
Total bit rate: 29,794
My exported file has this format:
Dimensions: 720 x 480
Codec: Linear PCM, H.264
Color Profile: SD (6-1-6)
Audio Channels: 2
Total bit rate: 2,151
I have seen this question in the FCE archive and people simply say there is no recompression in FCE Export to QT Movie, but clearly there is since I see the H.264 codec listed in my output file and the bit-rate is a about 1/14th the rate of the original source material. The output file size is also much smaller. What gives. How can I get an unrecompressed file out of FCE so I can send it to a coworker for futher editing with his FCE.

Does anyone else have anything to add to this thread. I'm, sure I'm using Export to QuickTime Movie and not using QuickTime Conversion and from the file specifications I've given above, it is clear that a 14:1 compression took place.

Double check:
There are only three options in the QuickTime Movie export window.
1. Include: The Audio and Video, Audio Only or Video Only.
2. Markers: Select whateve you want or don't want.
3. The Make Movie Self-Contained selection check box.
Is this what you see?
The export will mirror the Sequence or selected part of the Sequence.

Problems with exporting audio music video to QuickTime

In iMovie I made this audio music video, combining music with photos and audiovisual clips. In iMovie I muted the original sounds of the photos and audiovisual clips. Yet after exporting the audio music video to QuickTime, parts of the original soundtrack can still be heard, some of it in the right place, some are scattered out at random. I have exported audio music videos from iMovie to QuickTime before - consisting of music and audiovisual clips - and then I had not theses issues. Can somebody explain to me what I can do to mute the original soundtrack in QuickTime? I don't want this original soundtrack to spoil the audio music video when I upload it to Youtube.
Thanks in advance

There is a bug in iMovie 09 that produces weird audio artifacts when you use speed changes (fast or slow motion) that do not conform to the preset tick marks of 25%, 50%, 100%, 200%, 400%, 800%, etc.
If you are using custom speed percentages like 58% or 139%, change them to one of the presets, and that will fix the sound.

Detaching and exporting audio from iMovie

I know one can 'detach' audio from video in iMovie and move the audio aropund, but is it possible to copy the audio, and import it into iTunes?
Here's the problem: I record my band rehearsing with a flip video camera and run the footage into iMovie, which, naturally, recognises the audio separately. So there should be a way of exporting the audio to iTunes so it might be playable through an iPod without having to go to all the trouble of burning a DVD... shouldn't there?

I have the same question as the above user. I "shared" my iMovie project via QuickTime, saving it as an AIFF file. But GarageBand will not import or open an AIF file. Now what?

Lost video after exporting audio from mpeg-4

I have some mpeg-4 files of my band and wished to improve the audio. I chose the Export Audio option and yes, managed to create an audio only file but seem to have lost the video. Have I lost it permanently or is it still lurking somewhere? I suspect that I might have to reimport this particular file so having done this how would you recommend splitting the audio and video, editing the audio (I use Logic 9) and then putting them back together? Or is there another option?
Thanks in advance for any help.

You could do this in either iMovie or GarageBand.
I would open a new GarageBand Instrumental Project. Drag your TV show file into GarageBand. Then save the project to an audio only codec such as AAC or MP3.
In iMovie, you would use SHARE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME and pick an audio only codec.

Poor image when I export movie from FCE

When I play my movies created in FCE with Quicktime player the quality is very low. I've used .mp4 and .mov as my source video imported into FCE and saw no difference in quality after exporting. How do I improve my quality?

.mp4 is not supported in FCE without rendering. .mov mans nothing at all. A 160x120 file in Cinepak can be .mov. Please give exact information on the original source media, the format you're working in within FCE, and exactly how you are exporting. Also make sure the QT player is set to high quality playback. BTW, what versions of the various software are you using?

Export Mpeg2 from FCE 3.5

How do I export Mpeg2 form FCE 3.5? Is there a way to export the timeline to iDvd?
-gl

Well, iDVD will do the rendering correct to Mpeg2 anyway, correct? If I do not render as a self-contained movie, it will reference the dv files on the encode in iDVD. Seems like this is the best situation at present.
I am coming from FCS and I have a friend who is using FCE to do basic stuff and I am just trying to help him get a DVD workflow going.

Can't export audio from FCP to Soundtrack Pro

I'm running FCP 5.0.2 and have Soundtrack Pro 1.0. I'm trying to export audio tracks from a long FCP project I'm working on to ST Pro to clean them up. As shown in Apple's online demo videos, I want to export an audio track and then remove 'pops' and do noise reduction, etc. In FCP I right click the audio track I want and go down to 'Send To' but the option for "Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project" is grayed out and I can't click it.
If I unlink the tracks and then right click the audio track and 'Send To', the "Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project" isn't grayed out and looks like it would work. But that is only highlighting one audio track, not the other stereo track and not the video track. In the demo video all three were highlighted but when I relink all tracks and try to 'Send To' I get the grayed out "Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project" again.
Is there something I need to do or a step I'm missing.

You might be onto something Randy. I noticed in the Timeline if I tried to send an imported .AIF music clip to 'Soundtrack Pro Audio Project' it would allow it and the option wasn't grayed out. So I looked in my Browser window and checked out the file attributes to every clip which are listed to the right of the names. Sure enough, under the AUDIO column the .AIF music files are listed as '1 Stereo' and the rest of my captured video clips are listed in the AUDIO column as '2 Mono'.
So was there a setting for me to choose during Log and Capture that would have made them '1 Stereo' as opposed to '2 Mono'? Or is this a preference setting somewhere to change that for next time? They were recorded on my camera in stereo I'm pretty sure.
Now in terms of the massive project I've already captured and edited, should I be able to export these mono tracks individualy and fix them as needed? When I click the 'Send to' 'Soundtrack Pro Audio Project File' for these single mono tracks it asks me to 'Save' the file somewhere, is there a proper place to do this or just anywhere on the HD?
Thanks

Export audio from Presenter to MP3?

Is there a simple way to export the audio from a Presenter presentation to a another file, such as an MP3? I am an educator, and some students want the presentations as audio podcasts that they can listen to while commuting, etc.
If Presenter cannot do this, is there a workaround?
I could stitch together all the individual audio files manually, but that would be too tedious for a large presentation. Is there a program that will do this.

There is not an export audio function in Presenter. This could be for many reasons, but it may also be just lack of demand (that Adobe has heard). The other problem is that Presenter doesn't use a single MP3 file, there is one (sometimes more than one) for each slide.
As to the Audition, or other audio editing programs, I do feel that is a solution. However, I have found that recording my audio in a dedicated audio program gives me better editing capabilities and better quality. It also provides me with the ability to easily combine or export the audio for the presentation into multiple formats, meeting different needs. I personally don't use Audition because it doesn't give me the ability to take a single audio file, place markers and then split the audio file by the markers. To be fair, it may do that, but I just haven't sorted out how to do it. But, any tool should work. If you have the Creative Cloud, then try Audition. If you don't, you can try Audacity, which is free. Or, you can pick something in between, I like the AVS suite of tools, which is $59 and isn't a limited time price like they indicate. There are many others out there, so find one that you like if this will fit your need.

Is there a way to export audio from iMovies?

I have extracted audio from a video clip that I wish to put into my iTunes library. I was wondering if there is an easy way to do this?
Many thanks.

One way is to drag the extracted audio clip onto your desktop. Then open iTunes and import it in from the file menu.

Extracting Audio from Video With QuickTime Pro?

I read on another discussion board that QuickTime Pro could record/extract audio only from a video file. So I purchased the QuickTime Pro upgrade today (for Windows XP) but can't seem to find out how to do it, assumimg that post was correct and it can be done at all.
The Nero video editing software I use can get the video file in MPEG-2, MPEG-1, AVI and other formats. I tried MPEG-1, but even the conversion to QuickTime's .mov format came up with no audio at all. I noticed a post here saying that was a limitation of the software. I could purchase the QuickTime MPEG-2 add-on but that seems to only allow playback and doesn't look like it will help any.
Another post on the other discussion board said that virtualdub.org has a software program that could do this extraction, but silly me I went with Apple and was delighted to read about the no refund policy just now. :-/
I'm guessing another possible approach is some kind of hardware solution -- a recording device of some sort?

In order to extract a track (video or audio) the file first must have those as independent tracks.
MPEG 1 and 2 are "muxed" (video and audio in the same track) so QuickTime Pro has nothing to extract.
MPEG Streamclip (free) can convert .mpg and .mpeg files to QuickTime formats.
If you export from Nero as .avi you can also use QuickTime Pro to extract tracks as it will have at least two.
MPEG 1 and 2 are playback formats and are not intended to be edited.

New to Soundbooth....How can I export audio from a .flv file?

Hi,
I am sorta new to SB. My girlfriend has purchased a study program that has numerous .flv files on a DVD. She has asked if I can take the audio and convert each movie to an .mp3, (so that she can listen to the videos on her Iphone). I figured I could open them in SB and then export as an .mp3, which would work fine on her Iphone.
The problem I run into is that when I open the .flv files in SB, the video appears, but the audio doesnot. The .flv videos play fine in every other program. Am I doing something wrong? I figure since she purchased the DVDs (and owns the study program), that I am not doing anything illegal by removing the audio. Are they encrypted?
Any other way to do this?
Thanks,
G

Use the Share menu. Choose Export Using QuickTime.
Choose Sound to AIFF.

Exporting Audio from Captivate 5.5

Hello,
Please accept my apology if this question has already been posted in this forum, I searched but didnt see this particular question.
My department currently has Captivate version 3.3. We would like to upgrade to Captivate 5.5 so we can take advantage of the NeoSpeech TTS (Text to Speech) application bundled with Captivate 5.5. Does anyone know if the TTS audio can be exported to different formats from Captivate? If I remember correctly it was possible to do it in Captivate 4.0. We looked at NeoSpeech software as a single license for a whopping $1,000.00/license, per year. We thought upgrading to Captivate 5.5 was a better option at $495.00.
Thanks
Andrea

Thank you so much for that worked with no problems at all

How to export audio from PPro CS6/CC to AJA KiPro?

Hello everyone.
First off, let me state up front that I know all of the specs when creating a ProRes file that will playback on a KiPro. Our shop just switched from FCP 7 to Adobe PPro, and the exports are not working, BUT I believe it's only because we don't know how to select the correct options for the export.
We can see Video, so I think we are fine on the picture side, but what I am looking for is a way to be able to get the audio codec to be these settings:
- Stereo
- Linear PCM
- 48kHz
- 24-bit
- Little Endian
I just don't know where to look for the audio settings to insure that this is really what I am exporting... in the export media window, I have been choosing the following:
I have also tried exporting the files as "Mono", but the sound continues to either not play at all or playback with what sounds like massive distortion.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
-PJ

Well, those settings will give you the first four, but the last is not a user option. It comes out as it comes out and you can't change it. I just don't know if it comes out as big or little.
