Is it possible to add audio to a bumper / opener template?

I have a little intro video that I put on all of your videos (http://noahsdad.com/). It is a video file made in after effects, a 5 second background track audio file, and 2 swoosh audio files. I have exported that as a video and saved it to my desktop. What I typically do is drag it in to every video and than overlay the date using the text tool.  It's time consuming lining up where I want the text to come on and off screen for every single video.
I tried to make a template in motion, and it worked (and sounded) perfect in the motion timeline.  When I published it to FCPX it showed up in my generator section, but when I brought it in to my project there was no audio. (It did allow me to change the date very easily just like I wanted to.)  But the audio didn't come through.
Apple said there is no way to have sound come with a template / motion project...but that doesn't sound right. Lots of motion templates have sound with them when you buy them. Does anyone know how to do this, or a work around? Again, I have a video file that has all of the music and video wrapped into one..I just want to add it to my bumper/opener template area with a quick way to change the text overlay each time...
Thanks.

I have the same issue. It is pretty annoying but at least the audio remains within the motion project. It just isn't accessible it seems as an FCPX template. So what I'm doing is this:
I still use the video within FCPX's generator section so that you can edit the parameters as you need to
For the audio, open the project in motion then under Share, click 'Export Audio'. Select 'CAF' format and save to your hard disk
I then import the audio file into an event I set up specifically for this purpose (per BenB's suggestion).
When I need it, I then insert the generator from the generators section and then attach the audio file below the primary story line for the audio track
It isn't pretty but it works.

  • Is it possible to add Audio on Demand to an image in Captivate 7 QUIZ for html 5 output in web browsers?

    We are trying to do a simple HEAR IT - SELECT IT type 'quiz' in Captivate 7 for an indigenous language project.  Our target output is html 5 to web browser.
    We have used the multiple choice question mode and have inserted IMAGES in place of text (although we left the question numbers visible)  
    The user should be able to click on a speaker icon to hear the audio file (as many times as they choose)  and then select the correct image answer.
    ALSO -  Is it possible to add sound effects for a correct or incorrect quiz answer?
    Thanks

    Attaching audio could be done to the Success/Failure captions, rather easily.You can put a shape button on a question slide, other interactive objects are not possible (Buttons on Question/Score Slides in Captivate 6? - Captivate blog). And have that shape button pause before the pause of the question slide. Use an advanced action with the Statement 'Play audio'. Don't use a simple action, because it will release the play head: Why choose Standard over Simple action? - Captivate blog
    User will then be able to click that shape button as many times as he wants, because the play head will remain at the pausing point. When he Submits the question, the two step process will use the pausing point of the Question slide: Question Question Slides in Captivate - Captivate blog

  • Is it possible to add audio with a simple play/pause button and also have a clickTag attached to the full stage?

    my client wants to add audio to their banner ad (which always has a full stage clickTAG set). I'm trying to figure out a way to just use a simple play/pause button and attach a toggle action to it. Problem is when the user clicks it's going to the clickTAG URL that's attached to the full stage. Is there any way around this?
    Please advise and thank you in advance.

  • Is it possible to add extra frames to the collage templates?

    At the moment in using PSE10 Trail, and the maximum amount of frames i can see that i can use is 19, is it possible to add more???
    Any help much appreciated
    Georgie

    You can use all of the frames in the content panel. After arranging your collage and clicking done, you need to save the file as a PSD file to preserve all the layers that were automatically created.
    Then open Full Edit and click:
    File >> Open
    Then navigate to your PSD file.
    If you open the layers pallet you will see that each photo in your collage has it’s own individual layer.
    Select one of the layers (highlight it) then choose a from the content tab and click apply.

  • Is it possible to add audio files without an image placeholder?

    Every time I drag audio onto my webpage, I get the audio controls (play, volume control, the play bar, etc) but I also get an image place holder. Is it possible to just get the audio controls and not have an image placeholder?

    You can also upload the file to your server and use the embed code to get rid of the image placeholder.....

  • Add audio to keynote?

    Is it possible to add audio to a Keynote presentation?

    Yes.
    You can add audio files directly from the finder or use the Media Browser in Keynote and click on the audio tab - that will give you access to your iTunes library.
    Audio files can be added to an individual slide as an audio object - this allow you to control when the audio starts and also allows more than one audio file on the slide (like sound effects, etc) that can be activated through the Builder Inspector. The length of the audio file can be adjusted using the Quicktime Inspector.
    Another way to add audio is to have a background soundtrack that plays across multiple slides. Only one audio soundtrack can be used per presentation file. The audio is placed in the Audio Well of the Document Inspector > Audio tab.
    Information about how to use audio as well as types of audio that work with Keynote can be found in the Keynote '09 User Guide available from the Keynote Help Menu (hint: you can download the file as a PDF for future reading).
    Good Luck.

  • Captivate 5 - Project Audio Window won't open

    When I go to Audio > Edit > Project on any one of my projects, it tells me that it will delete captions (as usual) then when I push "Yes"....... nothing.  I won't be able to do anything else in captivate (as usual) but there's no edit window.  I thought maybe it was being slow, but I sat and waited for a goodly amount of time and nothing.  I have to push "Esc" to be able to work in Captivate again.
    It's almost like the window is there, but hidden... I thought maybe I had dragged it to the side of my screen out of sight at one point, but I haven't been able to find it.
    The Edit > Slide window works fine.  It's just the Edit > Project that doesn't work.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I am guessing that the dialog opens but goes behind the main Captivate application window.
    Can you check the following -
    1. Launch Captivate and resize the application window to a small size.
    2. Drag the application to a corner of the window (keep the center of screen empty)
    3. Now add audio to project and open 'Audio > edit> project'
    See if you can now see the project audio edit dialog.
    regards,

  • Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

    Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project in iMovie? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. Whenever I add audio or song it covers the whole project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

    Thank you for your reply Karsten but unfortunately this didn't help me so far. Or maybe I'm missing something?
    First the link is a tutorial for iMovie on a Mac. I'm using iMovie on iPad so the steps are inapplicable.
    Second it is only possible for me to manipulate the end part of the sound clip to whichever duration I want. But I can't do the same with the 'beginning' of the sound clip.
    I simply want to place some photos in the beginning of my video with no sound in the background then after like 2 secs I want to start the music clip. For some reason that is not possible! Cause every time I drop the music clip unto my project timeline it automatically place it self along with the first frame in the project! And consequently the photos and music are forced to start together.
    Hope I'm making sense...

  • Is it possible to add reverb to vocal mic, without affecting my keyboard sound?

    Hello,
    I am trying to record my vocals and piano simultaneously. I'm using the MBox 2, with Adobe Audition 3.0. Whenever I add reverb to my vocal track (via the fx tab under my vocal track in multi track view), it affects the way my piano sounds while I am recording (it creates a delay on the sound of the keyboard while I am playing...almost like a 'bouncing note' delay). I really want to be able to hear some reverb on my voice while recording, but I cannot seem to figure out how to do it. This is how I have everything set up:
    Piano is plugged in via DI on input 2 on the back of the mbox
    vocal mic is plugged in via cannon on input 1 on back of mbox
    If anybody could help, that would be wonderful. I've spent hours trying to figure this out with no luck. It is a lot more fun to record your singing with a bit of the pretty reverb....but my piano doesn't agree.
    Thank you

    Hello Brian,
    Thanks for your help again. I have spent the last 6 hours running into nothing but problems. I tried your advice about recording mono in both separate tracks, and still no luck. I was using a condenser mic, and a keyboard. Both using mono, and I was using the studio reverb. I finally decided to try something simpler, just so I could at least feel a bit satisfied in getting a recording in. I set the condenser mic near my keyboard and speakers, and plugged my keyboard into the speakers. I armed the one mic track for record for phantom power, applied studio reverb, and set up the correct settings for the track by going into Audio Hardware Setup and selecting 'Asio Digidesign Driver' as the audio driver for everything. I simply wanted to play my piano, which would sound through the monitors next to me, and sing into the microphone..which would pick up my vocals with the piano in the background. The only way I could hear reverb on my voice during the recording, was by adjusting the 'mix' knob on the front of the mbox. It seemed to be working okay, and I thought I had found at least a compromise for the moment. But after saving the files, and upon listening to them...I noticed drops and rises/glitches/ in the recording volume. I then did a bunch of tests. I recorded some without any reverb assigned at all, did some recordings with the mix knob up and some with it off...I tried everything I could think of. I saved each one as a wav file, and MP3, just to see if that would affect the sound. Listening to them, they all have those same sound glitches. While doing the recordings, the sound disturbances weren't audible.
    I am wondering if there is a setting that I need to fix...I am not the most savvy technical person, and am rather new to recording. Maybe the buffer size needs to be adjusted? I really have no idea...it is frustrating. I should say that I am using an MBox 2, which is supposed to be used with Pro Tools software. I had problems using Pro Tools as well, I don't think my OS is very compatible with it. Unfortunately, I have windows Vista, which I hear nothing but problems about in regards to recording. I prefer to use Adobe Audition, as I'm familiar with it, and like it.
    Well, I hope this email hasn't put you to sleep. I really hope I can get this figured out, as I'm keen to record.
    Thank you again..

    Subject: Is it possible to add reverb to vocal mic, without affecting my keyboard sound?
    Out of some disbelief I had to try my own setup suggestion from above, since it's not a thing I do daily anymore. Without wanting to go into any dispute with the above poster, I can only say:
    It works well here.
    Your mileage may vary.
    Setting up two mono tracks with a separate input to each, I was able to record vocals with reverb from Audition in my monitoring headphones, along with recording an electro-acoustic instrument (guitar in my case) on the adjacent track with no reverb at all. I sang/tested with lots of consonants and different monitor levels and reverbs; I used the Studio Reverb, which is the least CPU intensive and recommended in the manual. There was no noticable delay, echo, what have you, which I felt disturbed my precision at all. Now I KNOW technically there is a delay/latency, but for practical purposes it isn't noticable. I've also heard some singers are extremely pecky on this, and for them there is the solution of direct monitoring and an outboard reverb added to their headphone signal. For everyone else however it works well and the latency just a theory - certainly not an audible 'echo' of any kind. With a poor soundcard and a computer low on resources latency will become evident. Also if you don't use ASIO. This type of application is why we have ASIO.

  • Chapter stops before end of chapter when I add audio

    Hi
    Basically the problem is, if I have a timeline with several chapters, each chapter being a different m2v file, then I want to add AC3 files for the audio. I have different AC3 files for each chapter.
    Before adding the audio the preview works fine, but if I add audio to a chapter then iy abruptly ends just after a few seconds
    Can you help me please?
    Thanks a lot

    Maybe it is just a preview problem. You could burn a
    rewritable DVD to test if the final output would be okay.
    I don't remember seeing any posts about this problem, but I vaguely recall having seen a thread about an issue with butting AC3 files together in a timeline. Because of the way AC3 files are encoded they aren't necessarily the exact same length as the video. With just one audio and video clip per timeline that doesn't matter. But by stringing AC3 files together you could end up with a sync problem that gets progressively worse.
    If at all possible I would suggest to use PCM (.wav) files instead and let Encore handle the conversion to Dolby Digital.

  • IS IT POSSIBLE TO ADD MULTIPLE ATTACHEMENTS?

    WHEN EMAILING ON IPAD, IS IT POSSIBLE TO ADD MORE THAN ONE ATTACHMENT? TWO OR MORE DOCUMENTS ON ONE EMAIL?

    The iPad requires you first to define the object you want to email and then open a send-mail page. Thus, natively you can only send one attachment. I looked at the app store and Mail2List allow sending up to six photos at once. AceMail allows sending multiple audio files and photos. I could not find anything to send more than one document.
    Also, please do not use all caps.

  • How to add audio to individual slides?

    According to the Keynote User Guide 2009, on page 70, it is possible to add a sound file to an individual file so that the sound stops when you go to the next slide and you can use a different sound file. What I want to do is use three or four songs on one power point presentation. It says you can do this but does not tell HOW to do it! There is an illustration of how to add sound for an entire slide show, but not for individuals slides. When you place the sound file in the window in the Inspector it goes for the entire show. But not indication how to do it for individual slides. Please inform, thank you.

    Just drag the audio file onto the slide, and it will play when the slide appears. You can also use Builds to start and stop the audio.
