How do I "round trip" a multi track Audition project with After Effects?

I'm a complete Audition newb and haven't been able to find an answer for this yet. I would like to make an ajustment in my Audition project and then move over to After Effects to hear it paired with the video. Also my voice over track is not in the mix even though it has signal and when I click into the individual cuts I hear it just fine. The voice over is track 2.

I'd need to see a little bit more of the Track Panel for Track 2 to know for sure why it's not included in a mixdown, but the likely cause is the Track Output is not set to Master, but instead was set to a specific output channel on your device.
As for the round-tripping between Au and AE, this process does not appear to be as elegant in After Effects as it is in Premiere Pro.  You'll need to export the mixdown of your multitrack session, overwriting the file After Effects is referencing, the re-link it in AE.  This would be how I'd approach it:
1. From Audition multitrack, File > Export > Multitrack Mixdown > Entire Session.  Create a file in your AE project folder called Audition Mixdown.wav (for example.  Best to use uncompressed WAV or AIFF formats at this stage.)
2. Drop this file into your Composition.
3. Make changes to the mix in Audition and either overwrite the original file, or save a new version.
4. In After Effects, right-click the file in your Project panel and choose Replace Footage > File... selecting the updated file.
Since it appears AE loads assets fully into RAM, it doesn't monitor the file on disk for changes and so it doesn't auto-update the asset when it is overwritten by Audition.  In Premiere Pro, where the assets are streamed directly from disk, changes saved to the source asset update in the Premiere timeline almost immediately.  Perhaps this is a potential workflow optimization we can discuss with the After Effects team to improve this workflow.

  • Round Trip form Preiemer to Audition more than Once

    Hoping someone can help.  I am struggling to work out how to send a project back to Audition more than once?  Basically I have a job that I sent from Premiere to Audition already but the client has come back with some further edits.  What I can't work out is how I can send that project back from Premiere to Audition for a second time once I have made the various edits requested Premiere so that I can just tidy up those bits back in audtion again.  At the moment it seems like I will have to try and re do all the work I had originally done in Audition or try and copy and paste clips form one Audition project to another and re align all the wave forms.
    I am sure I am being stupid and missing something really basic so if someone can shed any light on how I can do this that would be great.
    Thanks in advance.
    Mark

    Hi Alan
    Your right the files are there but all as separate wav files that were created when the Audition project was first created and I have the original Audition timeline that was created when I first sent the project back to Premiere. What I can't seem to figure out though is that when you send the project back from Premiere to Audition the new audio tracks that were created don't link back to the originally extracted wav files or the Audition Project that created them.  Instead Audition creates a new wav file for each complete track (for those tracks that came from Audition first time round).  However if you click on one of the single track clips from the original Audition to Premiere round trip and choose edit original it opens the original Audition project with all the clips in that created. Which isn't the behaviour I was expecting  I was hoping for something a bit like the dynamic link relationship between after effects and premiere so if you have round tripped your audio any further changes in premiere are reflected in the audition project or a copy of the audition project. Is there away of doing this?
    Thanks

  • How do I turn a shape layer into a mask in After Effects?

    How do I turn a shape layer into a mask in After Effects?

    I should also mention that if you create the shape with any of the shape tools (rectangle, Polly star, eclipse) instead of the pen tool you will have to convert the shape to a bezier path before you can copy the path and paste it to a mask. Easy to do if you have the recent version of AE, not so easy if you're using an older version.
    when you have trouble figuring things out simply type something like track matte in the Search After Effects help field at the top right corner of the AE application frame. You will get these resources: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/search/index.cfm?cat=support&term=Track%20matte&loc=en_US&sel f=1&lr=en_US&site=aftereffects…

  • How to undo the "replace with after effects composition" command?

    Hi,
    I don't know if there is a better way, but i make my color corection in after effects with Color Finesse and i use this command: right click on clip and "replace with after effects composition" - that a good way but, the problem is when i wanna to undo this and to bring back my old clip from an AE Composition.
    this is how my clip looks beforee
    and after
    it works fi i use "undo" command, but after i save the project, and restart premiere, that command is gone.
    my question: what can I do to bring back my old video?
    thanks.

    You can try to go to one of the autosave versions and see if you can bring it back that way (if the history is cleared)...
    Seems a little extreme
    If you still have the original source audio in your sequence, as your example shows, park the CTI at the beginning of clip instance and target just the audio track (i.e. deselect the video track). Hit the M key to match frame the original master clip, hit I to mark an in point, and then hold down the Alt key and drag the Video Only button from the Source Monitor to the AE comp item. The AE comp will be replaced with the original video and linked to the audio.
    The upshot of all this is that, unless you make a duplicate before using the "Replace" command or undo immediately after doing so, there is no direct way to get back to the original footage.

  • How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

    How to import WMV file for use in adobe programs, especially After Effects and/or Premier?

    I have the latest adobe creative cloud and i'm using Mac 10.8.2
    My client gave me a wmv file that she wants some people blurred out in the background but when I go to import the media, it's greyed out. I'm assuming that After Effects will be the best solution for this, but maybe there is another way.
    I can purchase a video converter and convert it to .mov but that costs extra money that I don't want to spend just to do this one project.

  • Multi track audio recording with ipad air

    Are there users of ipad air with a usb connecting adaptor and a usb audio device making multi track recordings?  I have had limited success doing this with my previous generation ipad and am wondering about the stability of eight-track recording on the ipad air. 

    Just thought I would let anyone who's reading this

    do with the Audio Configuration of Logic to the

  • Tracking C4D model in After Effects with Camera Tracker

    Hello, I have a problem positioning my C4D object in my After Effects Comp for camera tracking.  I create a comp with video footage that I then track camera. I choose a bullseye and position it where I would
    like the C4D object to be placed. I right click the bullseye and 'Set Ground Plane and Orgin'. I then place the C4D object in the comp and set the Cineware Camera to 'Comp Camera'. Now, the C4D object is placed where I
    placed the bullseye, but it is very very small. I can hardley see it. How do I bring the object closer to the 3D Tracker Camera before the camera starts to move? Or do I bring the 3D Tracker Camera closer to
    the object before the camera starts to move. I also tried 'Center Comp Camera' but then the small C4D object disappears and goes off screen. I appreciate any replies. Thanks alot.

    Simply scale the object/scene in C4D.

  • How do web site created with After Effect differ from that created with dream weaver or Flash?

    As I have some experiance not much in After Effect..I have created my website in After Effect., I  have no  knowledge of Dream weaver or Flash..  My web pages take too much time to open., due to it loads SHOCK WAVE and it take much longer time., were as I see many a website created in other software opens prety fast. As such I want to know whether creating website in After effect is right or not.,   and how to speed up

    You do not create websites in AE, you can create at best animations and that is what you ahev done - produce a fat SWF file. You are really using the wrong tool and should better spend your time on learning HTML and CSS proper and do your website in Dreamweaver or otehr web design tools. And no, Flash is not a website design tool, either.

  • How do I select all clips in a large project with out individually select each clip?

    I have a large project with ~1000 clips (still jpgs).  My question is how do I select all of the clips without individually selecting each clip?

    Chris
    Thanks for the reply with additional information.
    The suggestion given would be applicable to your Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 7.
    As an aside, have you updated 12 to 12.1 yet? If not, please do so using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. The major perk of the update
    is that it corrects an Expert workspace Text/Style issue. There are other less defined advantages included.
    Please let us know if the suggestion for Select All worked for you.
    Thanks.

  • HT4007 How can I get rid of duplicates in a project with out deleting them one by one?

    How can I get rid of duplicates in a project without deleting them one by one?

    What kind of duplicates? Did you import the same image file several times? Aperture does not have any built-in tools to detect duplicates. You will have to do delete the one by one. You could arrange the images by date, so that duplicates are shown side by side in the Browser. Or use a tool like Duplicate Annihilator (the program is not free). I have never tested it but some do recommend it.

  • How can I preserve non-alphabetical layer order from Illustrator to After Effects?

    I'm using Illustrator and After Effects CS5. When I import an Illustrator file into After Effects, I'd like to maintain the order of the layers as they were in Illustrator, but they always come in alphabetically. How do I keep the original order from Illustrator?

    The comp is always in the same order, the order in the project panel folder that is created is not and there's no way to force it to be. It makes no difference to the project.
    If it's really important to you to have the layers in the Project Panel Folder in the same order as the layers in Illustrator File and the comp you can adopt a more friendly naming convention in AI. I always create my layers in Illustrator using Cmnd/Ctrl + Alt/Option + l because this gives me the opportunity to name the layer when it's created. With a little advanced planning and a published naming convention you'll have just what you want in no time. You could even write an action that automatically created and named layers for your default projects.
