Missing Audio track controls (fader, solo, mute, sends, inserts etc...)

After doing a "save as project" I ended up with 2 big problems. When I pull the song off the CDR and open it up on my computer the controls for some audio tracks are missing. I lose anything having to do with track control such as input, output, fade, solo, pan, inserts, buses, mute, record. The only thing i can see is the group assignment and automation pull down menus. The other problem i have is that i have to manually relink all the audio files. Why can't the session file find the audio files??? They are all in the audio files folder right next to the session file. Arg. i am running logic pro 7 and the computer that the "save project" was completed on is running logic 6 express 6.4.0.

I'll take a stab at it.
Sounds like your parameters are not viewed. In the arrange window menus - there should be a view menu and it allows you select what things to see for each track.
Maybe view parameters or view channel strip only settings may help.
Not sitting in front of Logic at the moment.
May have something to do with goign from L6 to L7,but i'm only guessing on that one.
hope this helps

  • Premiere Pro CC and missing audio tracks for .mts files

    Hello guys,
    I used to edit my .mts files with Premiere Pro CC without any issues until yesterday.
    Now I import my .mts file (made with a Sony VG900) but Premiere doesn't recognize the audio tracks (that I can hear just fine with VLC).
    I tried changing the extension in .m2ts but it didn't work, I also tried reinstalling Premiere but, again, it didn't work and I tried (I was desperate) to install Premiere CS6 just to check if maybe the problem was just about the CC version. Guess what? It didn't work...
    I tried also converting the file with Encoder in .mp4 but after the conversion I can't hear the audio with VLC and, of course, it doesn't work on Premiere.
    Do you think it's a Premiere issue or a file problem?
    I used those same files for other videos (like this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1X5vsZ-5yI) and I had no problems. Then I updated Premiere, I moved the files in other folder and the problem came to life.
    Any idea?
    (I'm waiting for my colleague to send me a new mts file just to check if I accidentally damanged the old ones).

    A similar problem here..... although......
    Take a look at this screenshot
    As you will see, the blue marked audio is repeated audio of less than on sec. Certainly not the way it has been recorded.
    I think I've got the answer........ (working with Premiere Pro CC, always up to date, Mac OX 10.9.2; Camera: Sony HXR NX3)
    1. Don't copy but clone your flash card to the location where to edit on your hard drive. At the same time: alt+click on external flash card, draw it onto your hard drive location.
    (or use carbon copy cloner, which I use for backup and transferring avchd files).
    2. Don't import regularly via the import dialogue box (cmd-i). Instead: use the mediabrowser browser, locate the map "private" (as often standard named),
    3. Via cmd-a (select all): select all videofiles.
    4. click right mouse button and select import.
    This way, all the video and audio files will be imported.
    If however you have alreade re-used your camera flash card for recordings and don't have access to the 'corrupted' files to be imported into your project, you won't be able to solve the problem. You just lost some of the essential data which were not copied onto your Mac.
    This solution I found for my problem may well be the one you are looking for........
    Another solution might be to convert the compressed avchd - before importing into your project - into uncompressed .mov filed. However...... you will lose data so this is not exactly what I would prefer if the former described workflow does fix the problem for you.
    Please let me know if this works for you or not.
    Good luck!

  • H.264 export, randomly missing audio tracks

    Came across a strange issue when exporting a 1080p timeline using the H.264 export option.  The first export had some strange video flickering issue, but the audio was fine.  So I re-exported and switched to CBR instead of 2 pass VBR.  On the 2nd export, the footage looked fine but for some reason tracks 3 and 4 which contained background audio, were not in the exported file, just silence.  The thing that concerns me is the only encoding option I changed was the bitrate, and going from VBR to CBR, everything else stayed the same in the 2 exports.  I have no idea why Premiere would mysteriously drop 2 of my audio tracks.  Has this happened to anyone else?  This problem has happened to me before, both with the flickering and missing audio.  I've tried the usual updating to current version of Premiere, clearing preferences, etc. and still running into this.

    I work in Broadcasting and we use Quicktime HD 1080i h264 with no problems. Plus the file sizes are just amazing (Less than 100mg for a 30 seconds)

  • Missing Audio Track on playback after "Share" or "Render"

    OK, I am tearing my hair out on this one:
    Premiere Elements 4
    I have captured a bunch of clips (with their own associated audio) from my DV Camera
    I have added music.
    Few title screens and transitions.
    Once I hit the "share" thing, or the render thing, when I play back the resulting file on my PC I only get the music audio!
    The audio associated with the clips is not there.
    I have tried doing different sorts of share formats (i.e. to AVI, to MPEG, to WMV, etc) and it is still the same
    In the Timeline both tracks are NOT muted.
    The Clip audio is not too low (i've read the trouble shooting guide).
    I tried sharing just a captured clip (i.e. didn't add in any music), and the native audio came through on that one, so the problem is probably not with how I imported the clip or anything. Basically it just seems like when I  have 2 audio tracks, one a music track and the other the audio from the video recording, only the music clips are added into the final file, but the audio from the clips themselves is omitted somehow!
    Help!

    When you say you're capturing DV, can you confirm that you're capturing over FireWire from a miniDV camcorder and that you're using Premiere Elements to do the capture?
    Also, does your camcorder have a dubbing feature for adding narration to already recorded video?
    There are other possibilities (such as the possibility that you have your camcorder audio set to something other than 12-bit 48K sampling), but we need to know what we're dealing with first.

  • Missing audio track when importing video into Premiere Pro CS3

    When I import my M2TS video into the editor there is no audio when viewed in the source.  There is also no audio track when I drag a clip down to the timeline.  Any fix for this?

    I have the same problem with M2TS files in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. The audio track is there - Adobe Premiere just doesn't recognize it. If you open the same clip in Nero Showtime, Corel Ulead VideoStudio, etc., the audio will be there. The audio is probably multiplexed.
    I have been recording High Definition TV using the Hauppauge HD PVR 1212. About 15-20 % of the M2TS files recorded will be seen as video only clips by Adobe Premiere. The remaining clips will be conformed by Premiere and you will have a Dolby Digital 5.1 audio track. If you convert the video only clips to .MP4 and then re-import them into Premiere you will then have the Dolby Digital 5.1 audio track back and you're good to go.
    I use either Xilisoft or Arcsoft media converters to change to .MP4 files. If you use Arcsoft you will have to render the clip. The files converted by Xilisoft don't have to be rendered for playback.

  • The missing audio recording control...

    For whatever reason, when I choose Audio->Record to-> Slide, the audio recording control does not show up on the screen anywhere. I am using Captivate 5.

    Did you use this laptop with two monitors? Perhaps the dialog box is still on the other monitor, this sounds strange sorry, but it happened to me before. I'm used to have another monitor connected in college and then have some panels on one monitor, if I forget to restore to one monitor sometimes certain boxes seem to have disappeared.

  • HT2490 my audio volume control defaults to mute whenever I start the computer.  Preference settings have no effect.  Technical support couldn't help.

    Audio preference settings continually default to minimum with Mute ticked whenever I start up.
    Technical support could not help desite 30 minutes or more of trying various approaches.
    The technician "proved" that it is a system issue and not an individual "user" setting that is affecting the computer.
    Any ideas about what is causing the problem and how it might be fixed?

    Thanks for the inquiry and feed-back.  Tech support advised me to unlock the preference dialog box when I was logged in as the administrator.  We changed the volume setting to mid-way on the scale and rebooted but the volume preferences reset to minimum volume with Mute ticked.  He also had me try what I assume is a reset of defaults on boot-up.  I held the Command/Option/P keys and operated the power on switch, then immediately held down the R key which put the computer through a different start up sequence.  Once again the volume was muted and indicated minimum when I checked.  No luck either when we created a New User account and set the volume control to mid-way as previously mentioned.  Other approaches he suggested were too involved for me to accurately relate but involved deletion of some files associated with the sound system.  No joy which is why I have sought other advice.  Thanks anyway for your interest!

  • Missing audio tracks.

    Can anybody help? I have made a movie where I have tuned the volume down on almost all of the clips and just set it to background music. However there are three clips where I want the audio to be heard so you can hear the persons commentary. When I play it in the editing window and in preview it works, but whenever I burn a dvd it leaves the audio off????? It worked ages ago when I made the movie using PE3, but I'm now running PE8 and re-jigging my old movies.

    it's only when I burn it to dvd & play it on the telly that the Audio 1 tracks are lost.
    OK, Audio is good in PrE, but not on the burned DVD via a set-top player.
    First, what brand of blank media did you burn to? Verbatim & Taiyo Yuden are the brands that I recommend. Many, like Memorex and Ritek buy from the cheapest source, and then rebrand the blanks. In a spindle of 100, there might be discs from 4 different mfgr's. One can get some good blanks, and then the rest in that spindle will not play.
    Second, can you test play on your computer with a DVD software player? How does it play there?
    Good luck,

  • Soloed Audio Tracks Won't Play Logic 9.1.8 - Background Still Does

    I have a 59 track session in Logic 9.1.8. I've encountered a very odd problem. Multiple audio tracks, even when soloed, will not play; however background audio/other tracks still do. For instance, I've imported a rough vocal track to the mix and when I solo the track, I do not the vocals however I hear kick drum and piano tracks which have been muted. I have double checked every audio track's output, automation, etc…and read several other posts to try and find anyone with a similar issue, to no avail.
    Some specs - the majority of the tracks are imported Audio, I have attempted to solve the issue from my MacBook Pro (2013) AND from my studio system. All of the audio and session information are stored on our dropbox server, however other projects still work fine.
    Here's where it gets super weird - I even tried started the session over again and just importing in the audio tracks from scratch and there is STILL a problem - I imported 5 of the drum tracks - kick, hat, snare, taiko, and noise percussion. When I solo the taiko track, I hear the audio from the kick track and NO AUDIO from the taiko track, and this is a BRAND NEW SESSION.
    Someone PLEASE HELP.

    In Logic's preferences/Audio... Is Universal Track Mode enabled?  It should be.

  • How do i mute an audio track without deleting it.

    how do i mute an audio track without deleting it?

    There have been a few recent posts, where Audio Mixer settings are not "held," in PrE 11. Those cited problems seem to be Project-specific, in that Audio Mixer works, as expected, in a new Project - just not the one, causing issues.
    I do not know if there is a glitch/Bug in Audio Mixer, or if the users are doing something that is "disconnecting" Audio Mixer in some way.
    As a test, create a New Project, Import a Video file with Audio (Muxed Video Stream and Audio Stream), and test Audio Mixer, and the Mute function there. How does Audio Mixer work in that Project? Does the Muting of the Audio "stick?"
    Second test: in your existing Project, Select all the Clips on that Audio Track #1, and drag them to Audio Track #2, or another, empty Audio Track, and test the Mute for that new Track, in Audio Mixer. How does that work for you? Does the Mute stick?
    Good luck,

  • Guitar Rig 2 as audio track insert - preset (patch) change?

    I'm either missing something painfully obvious, or it's even harder than I think...
    I'm trying to set up to play live using Logic Express 7 for accompaniment and automated control of GR2.
    I've set up an audio track with "GuitarRig2 MFX" as an insert. I can see every single parameter within GR2 as controllable with automation EXCEPT the preset (patch). I want to simply change patches at various points in the song. It seems impossible.
    This is on a PowerBook G4 laptop. I am using an Edirol FA-66 (firewire) as the audio interface. I have the RigKontrol connected, but not implemented as an audio interface, as there can only be one at a time.
    As an experiment, I set up a track with GR2 as an Instrument, and can change patches, but that instance of GR2 is different from the one used as an insert, so the patch change doesn't help.
    So, in Logic Express 7, how do I get an automatic patch change to GR2 as an insert (plug-in) on an audio track?

    I haven't done this myself yet, but why would you want to do that? You can freeze the track and eliminate the CPU load.
    However, if it's not CPU load that concerns you, then you could simply route the output of the track containing GR2 to a new audio track (instead of the main output), solo the two tracks, and record-enable the 2nd track. Press record and go...
    I think that should do the trick...hope I didn't miss anything.

  • Opened FCP Clip In STP . . . Now How Do I Add Audio Tracks?

    I have opened an FCP 6 video clip in STP and the video and 2 audio tracks are facing me.
    I want to get rid of the clip's audio tracks and replace them with tracks on which I am going to create a musical background.
    I am not concerned about deleting the original audio tracks as I can mute them back in FCP but I would like to add some new tracks for the music.
    It was dead simple in the old Soundtrack 1.5 but how do I do it in STP ?

    I'm on STP 2.0.2 and page 409 doesn't seem to have anything relevant but your sentences do!
    I tried "Send to STP Multitrack Project" and that seems to fit the bill.
    So why didn't I try it earlier? I made an assumption . . . . . I assumed that "multitrack" was synonymous with "multicam" and as I wasn't exporting a multicam file, it would not be appropriate.
    It's not the first time I have been tripped up by terminology.
    Thanks for nudging me in the right direction, Paul.

  • Encore CS3 - Hangs and import problems with menus and avi footage with audio tracks present.

    I'm trying to import some footage files in .avi format into Encore CS3 and am having several problems.
    In what follows when I say "crash" I mean Encore quits with a standard Windows error. When I say "hang" I mean Encore does not quit but rather becomes an unresponsive process that must be killed manually using Windows Task Manager.
    My System:
    WinXP Pro SP2
    2.93 GHz Intel Celeron CPU - single core
    Intel PERL mobo
    3GB 400MHz RAM
    NVidia 7800GS video
    I mention these specs however I am not experiencing any hardware
    related bugs or issues (like out of memory or video driver crashes
    etc) when using any CS3 app.
    The footage files (as reported by GSpot) and problems I am seeing. In all cases GSpot reports that I have the appropriate codec installed:
    footage1.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 192kb/s, 716834 KB
    Attempting to import as timeline causes Encore CS3 to hang.
    Importing as an Asset allows it to import but when I try to click
    on it in the project windown to add it to a new empty timeline,
    Encore hangs. It plays fine in Windows Media Player.
    footage2.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG-1 Layer 3 48kHz 128kb/s, 718302 KB
    Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
    with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
    fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no audio.

    Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
    with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
    fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no
    audio. I tried converting this one using AVS to both MPEG3 and DivX,
    each using MPEG1-Layer3 44kHz 192kb/s audio, and got the same issue
    upon importing into Encore CS3. I also loaded it into Camtasia
    Studio and it looked fine over there. The audio was present and I
    was able to export it as a .WAV file. When I tried looking at the
    file in Soundbooth CS3, there was no audio track or, more
    accurately, the audio track was a flat line.
    By way of comparison these are importing perfectly:

    Although this one imported & transcoded correctly, when I went to
    build it to a DVD image file I got some strange errors during the
    "planning video" stage that prevented the process from completing.
    Unfortunately I neglected to write down the error message I recieved
    which read like quite nonsensical babble to me, and I have since
    deleted the project folder. I remember it was not a memory or
    display related error and it included a timestamp where the error
    was happening. I played the footage in the preview panel thru the
    identified timestamp but it previewed perfectly without even a
    jitter in either the video or audio. Took forever to transcode so I
    doubt I'll be doing this one again anytime soon.
    Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the

    Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the remote control to make it appear. Other than that it seems to play ok in that player. Also tested it in 2 other DVD players (a Panasonic and Zenith) and it worked just fine like it's supposed to in them. Also plays perfectly in my computer's DVD player/burner using Windows Media Player v10. I tried burning to Memorex +RW single-layer single-sided disks at 6, 7, & 8Mbps project settings but got the exact same result every time.
    Encore CS3 crashes fairly often during authoring, particularly during imports, and when I go to edit things like calling up a timeline in the timeline panel, dragging footage into an existing timeline, or changing button links in a menu etc.. I have also experienced seemingly random hangs even more often, probably 5 or 6 times as often as a crash. Saving the project after every little change I make, then closing and restarting Encore allows me to make progress albeit at a significantly reduced workflow rate. Accessing Photoshop from Encore appears to be working flawlessly so far aside from the slow load times. Encore hangs sometimes during video transcoding, repeat the process and it works ok. If I try to import a menu from the library after importing my footage files, Encore hangs trying to import it either at the 50% mark or the 99% mark (it varies even with the same exact menu selected from the library). If I import the menu first and the footage after, then no problems. Also trying to render motion menus after importing footage causes Encore to hang, render before footage import and everything works ok. Interestingly enough, previewing my project in Encore's monitor or preview panels works perfectly even in High quality mode -- in fact it operates quite smoothly in comparison to other apps I have tried. Although those footage files that had missing audio tracks on import obviously played silently, I have yet to experience a hang or crash during a preview or when scrubbing through a timeline in the monitor panel.
    The last problem I've seen is with the project cache files. It doesn't always get rid of cache files when stuff is deleted from the project. I was working on one project and surprisingly ran out of disk space. When I tracked it down I found that there were some two dozen copies of a footage file I had repeatedly imported and deleted from the project still sitting in the cache folder. The file was an avi about 2GB so it was taking up some 40 GB of disk space for stuff that was no longer in the project. I tried shutting down Encore and manually deleting all the cache files, and that worked for most of them, but there was one 2GB file that kept reappearing in the cache folder even though it was no longer in the project. The XML file in the cache folder still had references to it in there so I can only assume that was the reason it kept showing up. I eventually had to delete and totally recreate the project from scratch to regain my lost disk space. This included having to sit thru a 6 hour long transcoding session which pissed me off to no end.
    Encore CS3 appears on the surface to be a very powerful, feature rich, and approachable app with a simple easy to use interface, but it is awfully bugged in just about every area I have explored and still needs lots and lots of work for it to be really useful. Frankly for me it is pretty damn annoying that I have invested so much money in this suite only to find several of the apps in it (Encore & Premiere in particular) behaving this poorly. In my opinion every single app in the suite exhibits lousy performance whenever you must do anything at all involving the disk from the time you click to start it up until the time you click to close it down. Several of them are just as seriously bugged as Encore too, and being a long time Photoshop v5.5 user I expected much more from Adobe. Even Photoshop is two or three times as slow now (e.g. it takes about 20-30 seconds to simply create an empty 500x500 pixel image file and almost a full minute to load a 30x60 pixel single-layer gif). So far I have attempted to create 6 DVDs using Encore and after 3 weeks of effort have only succeeded in getting one of them onto a final disk -- and that one is kinda limping to work correctly in my DVD player. Three of those projects became so corrupted while working on them that I had to delete them completely and recreate them from scratch, only to find that I still couldn't get them to completion for one reason or another. Seriously disappointing.
