If I change audio levels in AE CS6 from 0db, it decides to output left channel only.

This is a bug that's been prevalent in every iteration of AE CS6. I'm updated to the most recent version. This is also something I've seen around a lot of forums, but nobody has an answer.
If I change the audio levels on any audio track from the default 0db, the RAM preview only plays back the left channel which completely breaks the way I can properly work.
If I render it out, the audio is fine... it's clearly only on RAM previews. But rendering out things to check audio levels is not a solution.
Any idea why this happens?

Stereo audio plays back left channel only - premiere pro CC2014

Dear All,
I recently upgraded to premiere pro CC and find that (just like sometimes in CS6) when i place an audio track (or clip with audio) to the timeline it plays back LEFT channel only. When I move the same clip to another (existing or newly created) sequence it becomes two channel stereo and plays back OK.
The question is, since i created sequences with the very same audio settings, what might cause this issue.
(fill right with left channel does not work because it IS a stereo track i suspect sg is wrong with my sequence settings- but i cannot figure out what exactly.)
I hope it's not a bug and it is just me doing sg wrong. all input is highly appreciated! THX in advance!

I know i just happened to be mid-project when trial period ended...
Still looking for the why's though, since I asked around and there ARE some people who expőerience similar issues!
Thanks in advance (Ann, too)

Premiere Elements 13 (not Pro), recorded a video with mono mic input (left channel only), need to create 2-channel (left and right) audio track for finished product. Help?

The question says it all. I have been all over the tutorials as well as the menus inside Premiere 13 and cannot find how to edit the audio track beyond basic balance, volume, etc.
I can see the Audio 1 track, shows audio in left channel only, but it will not respond to attempts to select, cut/copy, paste, etc.
Basically I just want to turn one-channel audio into two-channel audio.

Sure you do not want to give the Fill Left and Fill Right another try?
According to the Adobe document Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Effects reference
Fill Left, Fill Right
The Fill Left effect duplicates the left channel information of the audio clip and places it in the right channel, discarding the original clip’s right channel information. The Fill Right effect duplicates the right channel information and places it in the left channel, discarding the existing left channel information. For example, you might use this effect on footage shot with a monaural microphone plugged into only one channel of a camcorder, extending the voice of a speaker from one channel to both.
From what you wrote, your Premiere Pro video seems to be saying the same.
If that Premiere Elements Fill Left or Fill Right is no go, you might want to explore what you can do in this regard using the free audio editor Audacity.
Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
And, then import the Audacity edited audio back into Premiere Elements project as source media.
Is the speaker system OK?
We will be watching for your results.
Thanks for the follow up.

Stereo audio in left channel only.

Hi,
I have a strange problem with one of my projects.
I have created a large number of "talking head" videos/projects. I export them to FLV using one of PREs default settings. For just one of these projects I get audio in the left channel only. All other clips are OK.
When I play the clips on the timeline the audio is perfect in both channels. So somewhere in the rendering/output process I loose the right channel.
What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance.

Hi and thanks for all input.
Yes I use a mono mic, but the camera puts the sound on both channels.
When I play the timeline I hear the voice in both channels.
The timeline audio track shows waveforms on both channels.
Here is a pic of the timeline:
The project is corrupt somehow. I just tried creating a new project with the same video files and made a short flv out of it and it comes out OK.
I will try to redo this one which leads me to another question which I will post in another thread if not already answered.
Thanks for your input.

Audio output from left channel only

My iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1.1) suddenly developed a problem with audio output last week after about 9 months of ownership. Through the headphone socket and Bluetooth streaming, only the left channel could be heard. I arranged an appointment at the Apple store and they confirmed after they carried out a restore (iOS 8.1.1) that there was only audio from the left channel. The phone was replaced under warranty.
My new phone was partially set-up in store and all I had to do was load my backup when I got home. I loaded the backup from my Mac and tested the audio output. To my surprise, the new phone had exactly the same problem as the one that was diagnosed as faulty in the Apple store i.e., audio output on the left channel only. I contacted Apple support via chat and explained the issue. I was advised to test the new phone without my backup being loaded. I restored the phone and tested the output using both Bluetooth and the headphone socket and there was a stereo output as normal. I reloaded my backup and it returned to left channel audio only. I was advised to then reset the phone and this cleared the problem. Corrupt backup data??
What I can’t understand is that two phones exhibit an identical problem, with one being a hardware issue and the other apparently a software issue. Too much of a coincidence if you ask me.
Is it possible that an app could cause a problem leading to a hardware failure?

Changing Audio Levels

Good Morning,
I want to change the levels of audio within a single clip. I used to know how to set the points in the audio line, but for the life of me I can't remember how to do it.
Thanks for your help.
Andy

option-w will show keyframes in the timeline. You can then click on the pen tool (or hit p) to put in key frames directly in the track in the timeline. Shift-T will toggle thru different heights for the tracks in the timeline which can help you and doubleclicking of the audio clip in the timeline will load the clip in the viewer where adjusting keyframes can usually be done with greater ease and precision.

Change audio levels/pan on multiple clips at once?

Hey folks, any idea if there's a simple speedy way to change the audio level or pan of multiple source clips at once? Not adding a filter etc but just going into clip and making the change, doing these manually one by one right now and would love to find a batch way to do it.
any help appreciated.
cheers, J

Select the level and pan criteria you want on one clip; ctrl+click and select copy. Highlight all of the clips you want to change and then ctrl+click one of the clips and choose Paste Attributes. Select Audio Levels and Pan and all of your selected clips will have the same levels as the original one.
You can also select a number of clips, select from the pull down menu Modify>Levels, and there you can adjust the levels of your audio for all of the clips selected.

How can I change the language of photoshop cs6 from english to german?

Hello!
My company has several CS6 (master collection) licenses. On my PC and Mac (both) I have an english version installed. I would like to change the language to german without reinstalling everything. I do have the install media of the german version. Can I extract the german language files an replace the existing ones? Or can I install the german version on a VM and copy the german language files?
Thanks for your help.

Audio level drop after exporting from FCP to Comp

my dialnorm at -31db, precompressor compression setting @ none, any other setting i need to look at??

do I need both of the audio files that ALL generates, or just the APack lookalike file?
This is the topic of some debate.
One camp - which I belong to - believes that you only need the A.pack lookalike (the .ac3 file). This allows you to either fit more video into your project or encode the video at a higher bit rate. Also, there is strong belief by that the inclusion of high data rate AIFF files causes many players to choke. This is the reason that gets the blame for many iDVD discs choking on players, since iDVD uses only AIFF audio for it's projects.
The exception to the rule (for this camp) is if you're doing a music-based project - a concert, music video or karaoke DVD - where you don't want any compression of the audio.
But, to try and answer your question directly, if you've successfully used A.Pack files in the past, you should be fine with just the .ac3 file from Compressor 2. At least, that's how I feel about it.

Can I change and reinstall my Indesign CS6 from my (soon to be old) windows pc to my (new) apple pc?

I have Windows licenses for Indesign CS6, vs 8 and Photoshop purchased & downloaden through Adobe about two years ago. I am now switching to an Apple pc but do not want to buy new packages or creative cloud since my purchased packages still suit me perfectly..
I know this question has been asked before but I cannot find a definite answer. So therefor I hope someone can clarify this to me.
Many thanks!

The audio does not play back from the speakers of my laptop, it plays only through headphones ?

Hi, I am not able to hear playback of audio from the speakers on my laptop. Only if I connect a headphone I am able to hear. Kindly help resolve.
Regards,
Vivek. V.

Hi
1) Try a Hard Reset as follows.
Remove any devices connected to the notebook. Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook - check if the speakers are now working.
2) Please First check if the speaker icon on the unit is not muted.
3) Go to device manager and uninstall the Sound driver and restart and unit will install the driver automatically.
4) Try doing System restore to the date when the unit was working fine.
5) Try to update the driver from hp.com website for Audio & Bios.
Let us know how it goes!

How to delete the left channel only in the audio track

Hello All,
I have put some video in the timeline that was recorded with a camcorder that only had mono sound. What I want to do is delete the audio track that has no sound, duplicate the audio track that has sound so that there are two audio tracks.
Now I've tried several different ways to do this, but it seems that FCE will only let me delete both audio tracks. How do I just delete one audio track and leave the other one intact?
Thanks for your help.
Mike

Select the audio. Then select Modify>Stereo Pair. You can then select the empty track to delete it. Then double click the remaining track to load it into the Viewer and set the Pan control in the Viewer window to 0.

Audio - left channel only

I have 1 Audio Channel. It is panned to the center '0', but is still only coming through the left speaker. How do I balance it to come out of both speakers?
Thanks.

if your audio track is panned to center, then the problem is with the speakers or the speaker jack on the computer. You can look in the system preferences for the computer and make sure the balance isn't set to one side or the other. But you already did the only think you can do in FCP to have audio come out of both speakers. Check an iTunes song, or some other audio, and see if THAT comes out of both speakers.

Audio level doesn't change immediately

When I change audio level in the clip (I usually need mute/unmute, so I do 100-0% or back) iMovie doesn't respond that chage for a while. After some time it becames ok. What can be the problem here?

Hi there
Assuming the audio clip is the longest object on the slide, you can fairly easily adjust the slide to match the audio clip exactly. But it will require a small and simple adjustment for each slide. Perhaps this will help?
To make the adjustment, just click the slide in the film strip so it has focus, then click on the time indicator field over in the General section of the properties panel. Type a 1 in the field and press Enter. The slide should auto-adjust to the audio clip timing.
What would be even better would be if we could just select all the slides in the film strip and do that once. But in my testing it fails.
Cheers... Rick

Audio level settings for clips

is there an easier way to change audio levels of a batch of clips in the timeline,other than going through them one by one ?
cheers

yes... select all the clips on the timeline you want to change, then press commandoptionL (altappleL) which will bring up the Gain Control window... you can enter a value here, and all the selected clips will change accordingly.
In the options box of this window you have Relative and Absolute... Relative means that each clip will be adjusted by the value you enter relative to it's current setting... Absolute means that, no matter what the clips are set at, every clip will change to the value you enter...
Good luck.
J
