Help editing audio wav volume

I have an acoustic guitar track that was recorded with a number of punch-in's, the result being multiple wav segments that have not yet been merged. These segments were recorded over a period of several days, the result being........you guessed it.........volume variation.
Is there a way for me to adjust the volume level of each wav segment?
Thank you, in advance for your response.

Select the region and in the Inspector there is a gain level control.
Or, when you've merged it into one region use volume automation.

Help editing audio

I'm trying to edit audio in Final Cut and simply want to chop parts of the audio. I'm editing in the Viewer. The audio does not appear in the canvas when I double click.
Is there a way to simply chop audio without using Keyframes? Seems like this should be easy. What am I missing?

Welcome to the forum.
If what you want to do is simply cut out or separate and lower the volume, lock the picture track with the padlocks on the left side of the timeline and use the blade tool. I only suggest locking the picture so that you don't have a lot of unwanted cuts clogging up your timeline.
Keyframes are great for regulating volume in a shot, but sometimes it's easier to just slice if you want to remove something. Remember that you'll want to replace the roomtone anywhere you make a lift.

Adobe Captivate Help | Edit audio

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/using/edit-audio.html

I had the same issue, and finally I found "DJ Audio Editor" and it works well. It has everything I need and does the job perfectly. It supports various audio formats, have powerful filters and effects. The best point is its affordable $20 price, instead of hundreds of dollars.

Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Editing audio in a Timeline panel

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/editing-audio-timeline-panel.html

Or, go into the audio units format of the timeline and manually adjust the audio portion of the cut to hit as close to a zero crossing as possible. Jim's way is the easiest, and sufficient for most people, but if you need perfect cuts and not a quick fade, it is possible to do it in Premiere Pro.

I would like to ride the mix and use sections of "good" audio and get rid of sections of "Bad" audio from the one channel. but, I cant figure it out. anyone??? I'm hoping Apple updates this issue soon with great audio support with "simultaneos multicam audio switching!!!" Please, Please Apple...

Hello, fellows. So im having a bit of a problem, basically i cannot see the audio wave format when i edit my Roxio Game Capture Hd pro recordings, I've already tried converting the file to another format through the included video wave editor, but that still doesnt do the trick. I dont want to download any kind of converter. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please respond. Thanks.

Audio Edit~Pitch or Transposition for the Audio Wave

Hi Expert,
I'm trying to Transpose or Pitch correcting for my whole Audio Wave (Pitch Machine)...but when processing is in progress...suddenly prompt out an error...unexpected quite for Logic Express....
anyone can give me a hand???
or does any other way to do the Pitch correction or Transposition????
Ray

Well, you just use cents for finer control than a semitone. One example would be putting it on a track (voice, for example) and then if the singer was flat, push the cents up. Between semitones and cents you have 1200 degrees of pitch shifting available per octave.
Well, I can't tell you. In pro it is called pitch correction.. I think in LE you do but it is a lite version. In Pro it is in the Special Category when selecting inserts.
Enhance Pitch is I think what it is in LE.
If you want to control the paramaters over time, see Automation. You can then draw or record pitch shifting (or virtually any plugin paramater) and Logic will remember the movements and play them back, Automatically.
You can use the sample editor for file based (destructive) pitch shifting. Select the region/area you want shifted and then go to Factory>Time and Pitch Machine and apply.
Cheers,
J

"Insert silence" won't work when editing audio

Greetings. Forgive me if this topic has been addressed
before. If anybody has experienced this issue and has a suggestion,
I'd be very grateful.
I'm relatively new to Captivate 2.0, as are my colleagues.
When editing audio in a .cp file, I often cannot insert silence at
the beginning or end of a clip. The flat silence appears on the
waveform, I click OK, I exit the editor as usual -- and the clip
plays back at its original length, with no silence. If I attempt to
insert silence in the middle of a clip -- no problem!
I hope I'm simply missing something obvious. Thanks in
advance for any help!

Well Jeannine8, you are close, but the reason your "fix"
works is because your recorded "silence" is probably white-noise,
not total silence. Allow me to explain please ...
Captivate does want to truncate (clip off) real (complete and
total) silence from the beginning or end of any waveform. So the
trick to adding silence to the beginning or end is to make sure the
silence actually contains *some* blip in the waveform (however
tiny). How to do that? Glad you asked!
1) In the Captivate WAV editor, insert your silence.
2) Now grab
any tiny, tiny piece of the audible waveform and copy it.
3) Then paste it to the very beginning of the waveform.
4) Last, use the "Volume" editor to reduce the volume below
human hearing level.
Note, if the "clip" you copied was extremely loud, you may
have to reduce the volume, close the volume control, then reopen it
and reduce it a 2nd time. This is because Captivate only allows you
to reduce volume to a minimum of 10% of the original.
All that said, I want to emphasize that "Jeannine8"'s fix
will normally work, and shows a lot of moxie ... so thanks,
"Jeannine8". And if opening the microphone and hitting the "Record"
button for a second or two in a semi-quiet room seems easier to
you, go for it. But if you know the reason
why it works, I think you will be happier in the long term.
Have a great day folks!

I recorded a panel presentation on my Ipod and would like to edit the recording on my itunes so I can export the recording and send it to my colleagues over the internet. I was able to import the recording to my itunes library but need help editing it.

Hello, thanks in advance for your help. I recorded a panel presentation on an ipod and would like to edit the audio recording to just one portion of the recording. I was able to import the audio into my itunes 11.1.3 music library but I have not been able to edit the length of the recording. I followed an online tutorial and was able to edit when the recording starts and stops on the recording but I haven't been able to edit out the parts of the recording that I dont want. Also when I try to export it to my Desktop or to Garageband (not sure if that helps or not) I am not able to export it. It is currently a .WAV file. I would like to edit the length of the recording and then export the file onto my desktop. I would like to email the presentations to my colleagues online so I could also use advice on how to make it a smaller file since it is current 945.6 MB.

iTunes isn't an editor. You need an app that's intended for editing audio files, like Adobe Audition (http://www.adobe.com/products/audition.html) or Audacity (free in the App Store).

Premiere Pro CC crashes when editing audio- any solutions?

Adobe Premiere Pro CC crashes nearly every time I try to edit audio, keyframe it in certain spots, etc, etc, with the error message that there has been an "unexpected problem" and the program must "force quit." Sometimes my work is saved, sometimes it isn't. And then I have to re-name my saved file, so I often end up with upwards of 15 different project files because I cannot edit audio without this program crashing. I see I'm not the only one--what is Adobe doing to fix this bug-riddled program? It's impossible to get anything done!
I'm using this program on a MAC, 6-Core Intel Xeon Processor. MAC OS X Lion 10.7.5.
I'm ready to lose my mind.

I am having a very similar experience.....I have been working in Adobe Premiere Pro for well over 8 years and have always had issues with crashes when working with audio files, keyframing, transition placement, trimming and so on. I have had nightmares with some projects that I am having crashes every change I do and it seems once you get an issue with a project it only gets worst. I have worked on a number of different systems in regards to hardware and get the same issues, OS has been Windows 7 64bit for number of years. I would have expected Adobe to have been able to smooth this out by now but it just keeps rearing its ugly head when I`m on a deadline crunch.
I try to never work with Mp3s and always request wav but it doesn't seem to matter in the long run.
Just wanted to let you know you are not the only one and I am having a serous issue with this problem once again!
Please help Adobe....audio is an issue with Premiere Pro for a lot of us....thanks!

Editing Audio from Timeline in Another Program

Often, one will want to edit the Audio on the Timeline, in another application, like Adobe Audition. Premiere versions allow for this to be done easily, and with exacting control.
Let's say that one has dozens of edited Clips on the Timeline, and they wish to edit ALL of the Audio. * Editing those individual Clips is easy, but how does one edit them all in one file, which will then replace the original Audio in the Clips?
The best way to accomplish this is to Export, or Share the Timeline as an Audio Only file. This Export/Share will be slightly different, depending on the exact Premiere program, and even on the version of that Premiere Program. Often, the Audio-only Export/Share is from the MS AVI Export/Share screen. One would choose Export Audio, leaving Export Video unchecked. If Multiplexing does not automatically set to "None," choose that now.
For this "round-trip" process, the Audio file format is very important. The ideal choice of Export/Share is PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit. This will yield an uncompressed Audio file, that almost every Audio editing program will easily handle, and is also the format, that one will want to Export, or Save from the Audio editor, for the second leg of our round-trip.
Import, or Open that resultant PCM/WAV in the Audio editing program, and edit, as is needed. When done, just Export, or Save (depends on the program) that edited Audio as a PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit. In some Audio editing programs, this will be listed as WAV (Uncompressed). The Sample-Rate and Bit-Depth are important, as the 48KHz and 16-bit are the ideal for any flavor of Premiere, and though Conforming will be necessary for editing, it will be easy on the program, and there will be no issues. Stay away from any compressed Audio formats/CODEC's, like MPEG/MP3. You do not want to throw away precious data at any step. That is why we use PCM/WAV for the Export/Share, and then the Export/Save from the Audio editing program.
When done, just Import that resultant PCM/WAV into Premiere. Wait a moment for all Conforming to complete, and then drag that WAV to the Timeline, on a free Audio Track that matches your WAV's Channel-count, i.e. a 2-channel Audio Track for Stereo, or a 1-channel Audio Track for Mono (these must match in Premiere). For more detail on channel-count and Audio Tracks, see this ARTICLE.
Now comes a personal preference for completing this round-trip. I like to leave my original Audio, just in case I change my mind. Gathering up and Trimming the original Audio can be a tedious task. As I have placed my edited WAV onto an empty Audio Track, I just go to Window>Audio Mixer, and Mute any/all Audio Tracks, containing my original Audio. It's still there, if I ever need it, but is now Muted.
Hope that this helps,
Hunt
* Sometimes we want part of the Timeline's Audio, but that part spans multiple Clips. There is no need to Export/Share the entire Timeline, and then Trim it. Just set the WAB (Work Area Bar) to the part that we do want, and make sure to choose "Work Area" in the Export/Share settings dialog.
Also, and especially when doing just a segment, covered by the WAB, I like to position the CTI (Current Time Indicator) or Playhead (CS 5.5) at the beginning of the WAB, with Snap ON. As I drag my edited WAV to the free Audio Track, it will Snap into place, right at the beginning of the WAB.

There isn't any simply way to where you want to go.
You can export each track separately. Switch off the audibility for all the tracks except one. Export the track. Repeat for each of the tracks in the timeline. Export the video for reference.

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!

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.
Thanks

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!!
