Global changes on an audio track or between in and out

I've come over from Avid and on Avid I could set an in an out point on an audio track and then changes the values of volume and pan which would then be changed between the in and out points.  I'm editing an interview and the radio mic channel has flipped over to one side and I want it in the middle and cannot get it to stay there.    I know that I can "write" in the audio mixer and just hold it there for hours, but I'm assuming there is a simpler way.  I know about paste attributes but it's not clear what I'm copying and where I'm pasting those attributes.  It would be far simpler if I could just select the audio track, set it the way I want it and tell it not to change for the duration.  Any ideas?
Thanks

At the lower left of the timeline, there's a button that looks sort of like an upside down V. Click it- the clip overlays. You'll see red lines appear on your audio tracks. Grab the pen tool. Using it, you can click on the red rubber band lines to place key frames where you want. in your case, click once where you want your audio to begin fading out, then click again where you want the fade to end. On this last point, drag the keyframe all the way down, vertically.
As mentioned earlier, you can do this in the viewer as well - using the pen tool.

  • Separated audio tracks issues between FCP5 and 4.5

    Hi guys,
    Just have a little issue here:
    We are shooting some sports stuff and because we need to do some news cssetts every evening we are working two people on the images.
    We have two computers with the following configuration:
    Comp. 1
    Panter 10.4.1
    FCP HD (5.0.1)
    Comp. 2
    Tiger 10.3.9
    FCP 4.5 HD
    The issue is that the QT files resulting from the capture on Comp. 1 don't show 2 audio channels on Comp. 1.
    They show only a Mono downmix from the two channels with no workout possibility.
    On the other hand if we open the same files on comp. 1 (in FCP 5) we do see and control the two channels in separate.
    Any ideas??
    Cheers

    I'm probably the last person to ask about this since I'm NOT an early adopter of upgrqades. Heck, I'm still on FCP 4.5 / OS 10.3 / QT 6.5.1, but I do read the forums regularly.
    The general impression that I get from reading the posts is that while FCP 4.5 will work on Tiger, you'd probably have fewer chances of problems if you upgrade to FCP 5. And don't use media captured with FCP 5/QT 7 in projects under FCP 4.5 (using one computer/software combo for capturing and the other computer/software combo for editing). That seems to be where the audio track problem crops up. If both the G4 and G5 systems were running identical software (OS/QT/FCP) then it shouldn't be an issue.

  • Change Order in Audio Track Mixer

    Adobe Premiere Pro CC2014
    Windows 7 Pro 64-bit SP1
    How do you change the effect order in the Audio Track Mixer?
    Drag and Drop does not appear to work.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok folks, I guess you can disregard my post... On a whim, I tried using the Built In microphone and Output, and it worked, though the sound is deplorable.  Though it identified the Sennheiser USB mic, it appears that must be the problem... odd, since that mic works fine in iMovie, and other applications.  Maybe I'll experiment, perhaps it doesn't like the USB extension, and I should plug the Sennheiser directly into the computer.
    The Automate to Sequence seems to now be assigning the correct still duration, at least with the small sample of about 6 stills, done in experiment.  Will try a larger sequence, shortly, with over a hundred stills, see what happens...
    To any members who were working on my problem, thank you.

  • I cut and pasted a description from the Internet. It posted as a link in iPhoto. It seems to have made a global change--all my descriptions are now blue, underlined, and Times Roman 12 rather than Arial white. How can I get this back to the default?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,

  • How can I edit imported audio track? After selecting and deleting region and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted part! What am I doing wrong?

    After selecting and deleting region, and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted region!
    What am I doing wrong?
    How exactly are you doing this?
    When I cut out a part of an audio region, then drag the remaining parts together, so they are touching, the track will skip the cut out section when playing the file.  Also, if I select the remaining parts of the region and use the command "Edit > join regions". This will create a new audio file with the cut out part deleted.
    You should see this prompt, when you are joining the regions:

  • How do I seperate the audio track from the video and save it to a CD in Premiere Elements 13?

    How do I seperate the audio track from the video and save it to a CD in Premiere Elements 13?

    Binbashi
    You can separate the audio track from video and save it to a DVD disc within Premiere Elements but not a CD disc.
    To do save to the audio to DVD disc, you do not have to separate linked audio video, just use the export Publish+Share/Computer/Audio and set Presets to the wanted format (AAC, AIFF, MP3, or Windows Waveform (WAV).
    You will not see Audio in the choices since it is at the bottom of the list of choices under Publish+Share/Computer/. You will need to use the thin scroll bar to the right of the choices to scroll to it.
    If you need information on selective export of Timeline content when dealing with more than just this one file on the Timeline, please let us know. If you are trying to produce a CD for listening in car or CD player elsewhere, please let us know.
    Looking forward to learning of your results.
    Thank you.

  • Change order of audio tracks

    In the manual it says that the order of audio tracks can be changed by simply dragging an audio track to its new position in the list. But that doesn't work for me.
    I tried it in two representations of the audio tracks list:
    1. If you open the slide show, there is an area labeled "slide show options" to the right of the slides. Within that area there is a list of audio tracks
    2. The settings of the slide show has three tabs: "Standard", "Transition" and "Audio". On the "Audio" tab the same list of audio tracks appears.
    But I cannot change the order in either of those lists.
    Now when I want to insert a track at a certain position, it is not possible. I have to delete all tracks following my desired insertion point from the list. hen add the new track on top of the list, and then add all other tracks again.
    Am I doing something wrong here?
    Best regards,

  • Can I move an audio track in between frames

    Hello All
    I'm on a Mac using CS5.5
    I imported and placed on the timeline a live concert piece that consists of audio and video.
    On the 2nd audio track I placed the studio recorded version of the song.
    I'm trying to exactly sync the two, but the they are like a half a frame apart and I cant get the either of the track to place between or nudge between frames.  I can see this by looking at their audio waveforms of the kick drum.
    I realize that the 1/2 frame delay in visual to audio cues, ie. clapping hands, or dance steps may not be noticeable at 24 frames per second, but if I were at 15 fps or 10 fps it might be, and I just wanted to know if there was a way to nudge an audio track between frames. 
    Or is my only solution to go to an Audio Editing program and shave off a 1/2  frame worth of audio from the front, save and reimport into premiere.
    Thanks In Advance

    What you want is to enable the non-discoverable and confusingly named "Show Audio Time Units" option for the Timeline panel's flyout menu (upper-right corner).
    Then, you can drag audio clips on a (audio) sample by sample basis.

  • Audio tracks not lined up and no sound

    For some reason my audio tracks for my clips are on different tracks. Most are on a5/a6 and a3/a4 - those play with sound. The audio on a1/a2 is not heard when I play the clip??? When I try to move the audio to different tracks it messes up my video.
    What I want to do is either figure out how to get the audio on a1/a2 to be heard OR move the audio to tracks that I know work without moving the video.
    Can anyone help?

    No mute. Maybe the tracks are off - but I don't think so? I have a screen capture -- although I cannot figure out how to add that to the post - can you do that???
    the only thing that is different is that the source for the ones that don't work A1/A2 havea source of a1/a2 that is connected. Even if I 'break apart' the a1 from the A1 and the a2 from the A2 still no sound...

  • Lived in germany for 1 year and changed dvd player setting 6 times between 1 and 2

    Hi i lived in germany for one year and had american dvds with me and chnaged between german and english more than 6 times now i am in america and only can watch german videos.
    Does somebody now how to change a 7th time?

    Wikipedia has some more information in this article, DVD region code:
    In most computer drives, users are allowed to change the region code up to five times.[10] If the number of allowances reaches zero, the region last used will be permanent even if the drive is transferred to another computer. This limit is built into the drive's controller software, called firmware. Resetting the firmware count can be done with first- or third-party software tools, or by reflashing (see above) to RPC-1 firmware.

  • How can I delete the audio track from a clip and have no audio associated?

    the clips I insert always add an audio track,and seem to be linked to video track.I just want to delete audio tracks,and have no audio track associated with the original clips .
    How do I do this ???

    Second time this question came up today.
    Click the a1/a2 buttons in the patch panel at the head of the timeline to decouple the audio from A1/A2. Then edit the picture into the timeline.

  • How do I choose which audio track to put music and voice on?

    When I add music to the timeline the right and left stereo music goes to tracks far part, as well as voice over. I am also having problems getting a music file on the same track as the one before it. How can I keep them close together?
    I have several blank audio tracks open on the time line. How can I close some of them?

  • Problem - Title Cards in Vid Track 2 Skewing In and Out Points in Track 1 ?

    Hi,
    Vast confusion. I'm working with edits in a timeline, created from video files that are "Avid Meridien Compressed" Quicktime Files. These are files that I exported from Avid. They are 24P files. The timeline has been set to 23.97, and everything in Video Track 1 makes sense, no problems, no render line because the project compression settings have been set to "Avid Meridien Compressed".
    Ok, so here's the problem. I am creating title cards with the video generator in FCP, and trying to super them into my edits by placing them into Video Track 2. But the moment I drop a title card into Video Track 2, (over an edit I have made in Video Track 1), there is a SHIFT in the in and out points of the source video in the timeline. For example, let's say an edit in my timeline has a source in of 02:02:30:17 and an out of 02:02:35:17. The moment I try and drop a title card over this edit in Video Track 2, the source video in Track 1 shifts, so it now begins at 02:02:31:29 and ends at 02:02:36:29.
    It is as if the title cards refuse to conform to the 23.97 timeline, and are overriding the source video edit decisions in Video Track 1.
    Does anyone have any thoughts on why this is occcuring? Does anyone have any suggestions for a remedy? BTW, I have also tried creating title cards in photoshop and dropping them in, but with the same result: it changes the source time code edits by shifting them later into the source video.
    Thanks,
    Mtbakerstu

    Update!
    While I was never able to get the Vid Track 2 title cards to stop shifting the edit decisions in Vid Track 1 when using the preset that is in tandem with the actual source video files (Avid Meridien Quicktimes at 23.98), I did find that by changing the Sequence Setting to DV/DVCPRO50 NTSC at 23.98 that I could drop the titles into Vid Track 2 successfully without any skewing of edit decisons. You now have to render the timeline, but a quick test of an MPEG2 export showed that there's no denigration in image quality with using this setting.
    So that's the scoop. It seems that there's no pure solution to this issue. Perhaps if there's a way to generate title cards out of Avid that are importable into FCP, that would do the trick, but I haven't taken my research that far.
    Thanks for your help!

  • Audio Is Randomly Cutting In And Out In Playback

    I have encountered this problem on all recent Premiere projects I've worked on with a variety of audio types. My audio is cutting in and out in a seemlingly random way while the video keeps running fine. Sometimes the audio will play fine for 15 seconds then stop, sometimes it stops and starts after about 2 seconds. I have tried adjusting all of my preferences, settings, audio types, and even video types but the problem always comes back. Spoke to a friend who's new to Premiere and he's having the same problem. Considering moving back to FCP despite the weak interface.
    Currently I am editing Canon 5d Mkii footage at 1080p, 29.97 fps. I am using none of the audio attached to the video clips - only editing to a separate m4a music track. My audio is at 44100 Hz. I am playing back video at 1/4 quality. I am running a fully updated Mac Powerbook with a 2.6GHz Intel Core i5 and 8gb of RAM.
    Please help, almostly completely unable to edit. Thanks.

    I am still having the same issue in Premiere CC 8.0.1 (21)
    Exact same issue as the original poster on this thread, as well as the original poster on this other thread:
    Premiere Pro CC Audio Cuts Out
    So this audio issue persists from version 7 now in version 8.0.1!
    For me, audio is cutting in and out randomly and never in the same place. If I have multiple audio tracks on the timeline, then one or more tracks might drop-out at the same time. Sometimes all tracks drop out at the same time. It seems completely random.
    I am editing with a combination of P2 footage and DNxHD 290 footage. (I originally had some AVCHD footage, but then I transcoded all of it to DNxHD 290 -- but this did not improve the audio issue at all.)
    Two of my audio tracks contain the native camera audio (stereo); 1 track has the music bed (stereo .wav files) and 1 track has sound effects (stereo .wav files)
    In one of my projects, I had a very strong reverb effect applied to the track (not to the clip). When the audio dropped out, I could still hear the tail of the reverb. This leads me to conclude that it's not the entire audio track that is muting -- it's definitely the source audio clip that's dropping out. The reverb tail continued after the audio dropped out.
    Playing the same part of the timeline again produces randomly different results -- audio might drop out on a different track, or at a different time, or not drop out at all.
    This bug is making it nearly impossible to edit! I have filed a bug report at http://www.adobe.com/go/wish_fr
    During timeline playback, my CPU utilization never goes above 15% and at least 12 GB of RAM is staying free, so I am pretty confident these drop-outs are NOT caused by lack of computer resources. Also, my hard drives seem to be fast enough to play back 4 streams of HD simultaneously, but I am getting these audio drop-outs when playing back 1 stream of HD plus 4 channels of audio. Therefore, I don't believe this can be a hard drive bandwidth issue.
    System specs:
    Windows 7 64 bit, SP1
    RAM: 24 GB
    CPU:  Intel Xeon X5680 @ 3.33Ghz (12 threads)

  • Transfering fcp 5 multiple audio tracks to soundtrack pro/ and 3 other ????

    1. i wonder how to import multiple tracks from fcp 5 to stp and maintain these tracks in the multitrack format, not mixed down to two tracks.
    2. i can't open a multitrack stp project i created in fce hd, into stp with fcp 5. i get the message, can't fine file??? when i click the file from the scratch drive, i also get the message that i need the apg ATI 9800 graphic card i used in my g4 with final cut express hd, but now i updated to g56 mac duel pro. do i have to att the ati card to my g5? and use this card instead of the g5 graphic card?
    or can i use both the ati card with the gr graphic card, since i think that two graphic cards can be added to the g5?
    3. i have a waveform file in stp that was made with final cut express hd, now i cant convert it to multi track, and i want to keep it since i filtered out background noise. how can i export it to fip 5 and reimport in into stp?
    4. im a little bit confused about the mixer in fcp vs the mixer in stp. which is better to even out the sound from one sequence to another. also, to mix for tv sound, ( - 12 db), how do i do that with accuracy since the waveform varies... and jumps around from say - 15 db to -8 db? how does one find the average with consistancies, if possible.
    i new to all this and would appreciate any help. thanks for any help any one can give me. ron hansing.

    First up, learning STP is a great thing to do. You'll handle audio much better with it. Apple Pro Training Series, SoundTack Pro, by Mary Plummer, is the best way to learn it.
    Back to your question. I did a basic tutorial that may help. It won't be out until December, but if you email me off board I'll send you an advanced copy of it. Shows how the work flow for editing multitrack sound from FCP into STP works. A bit to get into here, but it'll be a great start for you.
