My audio file is longer then my vid. clip. how do i crop or clip it?

I have checked the tutorial and used the help function, but I can't figure it out?

welcome NOJE to the  boards of discussions...
* set playhead to position you want to 'clip'
* select audio clip in timeline
* hit Apple-T (=spliT)
* select unwanted part
* hit 'delete'
iM doesn't differentiate between audio or video.. most commands are for both 'flavours' of data...

My audio files no longer sync to the in the 5d in camera audio. It did when I bought the program but no longer does I reinstalled and it still will not sync the files recorded on the H4N with the Canon 5D Mark Ii

My audio files no longer sync to the in the 5d in camera audio. It did when I bought the program but no longer does I reinstalled and it still will not sync the files recorded on the H4N with the Canon 5D Mark II Camera.
The program used to import and transcode the Can 5D footage but no longer does. The program freezes often and looses my projects as well. Hard to make a living when your editing program is on strike!

Some audio files no longer playing?

I am half way through an imovie project and recently added audio commentry, however some files no longer play also a few now have a yellow warning triangle?
Im assuming the files are now corrupt or something?
really annoying!, anyone have an idea what the problem is??
Cheers

Hi
I'm assuming the files are now corrupt or something?
I don't
Yellow triangle - indicates that the pointer in iMovie to the Audio file used, no longer is valid.
iMovie - DO NOT Copy the audio You put into Your movie project's at all - only points to where You found it.
E.g. - You insert an Audio-CD and use a tune from this in Your movie - then you need a tune from another CD and Ejects the first one =====> RESULTING IN A YELLOW Triangle - pointer to the tune on Your Audio-CD is broken up on You ejected the CD.
I copy all needed Audio to a dedicated folder first (as I store in a proper place e.g. movie folder in User account) - then I use them into my movie.
The deeper thing is - That there is NO movie in Your Movie Project at all - only a small text document pointing to the material used (video, photos, texts and audio) AND how You want it to be presented AS a Movie.
Only when Shared / Finalized - there is an actual movie created.
This is Non-Destructive non linear Video Editing and how it works.

Streaming audio file over the network w JMF. How to know when the file end

Hi
I am streaming audio file over the network using JMF. I want to be able to know when a file end so I can close the streaming session.
Can some one please help
Thanks

If you put a ControllerListener on the Processor that's associated with generating the RTP stream, it'll generate an "EndOfMedia" event when the end of the file is reached.

HT1689 audio files no longer available to sync to my iphone 4

I had upgraded my iphone 4s operating system to IOS7, and have lost the capability to sync my audio lectures to my phone to listen to them. They are on my macbook, and i was easily able to check them on itunes and load them to my phone. Now all the audio lecutures are still on the computer available to check to sync to my phone, but they do not load. When i go to the cloud on my iphone, to try to download them directly to my phone they do not show up at all. I am wondering if the new operating system is not allowing a person to listen to files not purchased from itunes? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Audio files opening in spectral display...how to change to waveform?

This started happening randomly. I can't seem to locate where to switch the default setting from spectral to waveform. Will you please help with a solution?

There are several ways to turn off the Spectral display. First from within the View menu which also has a keyboard shortcut of 'Shift + D'. Or by clicking on the little blue outlined red icon box to the right of Multitrack at the top left of the screen. Or by dragging down the little down arrow grey icon top right of the Spectral display space itself.

Pro Tools Missing audio file message syndrom exists on Logic

I come from Pro tools and i am a bit traumatised by this fkn Pro Tools missing audio file message for those who know what i mean..
Is it something possible and frequent in logic when we work on a daily basis ?

No, you simply copy the entire project folder to a flash drive and bring it home. If you have included the audio files in the project folder, which logic does by default, logic will find them just fine at home. If it asks where they are, you just hit "search" and if they're there, If you've copied the song file to your drive without including the audio files ("pilot error") then the program can't find them. Often, I get protools sessions from clients with missing files. Sometimes the entire audio files folder is missing, but more often the missing files are out-takes that are no longer part of the arrangement, and were still in the audio file list of the song, but were not included in the folder when the project was copied and brought to me. How or why, I cannot tell you.

How do I export detached audio files as separate files, for Pro Tools processing?

My project is a live band performance. I have every song as a separate Event with associated audio. I have detachd all the audio from all the video Events. I now want to Export the audio files to Pro Tools for editing, then Import the edited audio back into FCP X and snap the edited audio to the associated video Events.
My problem is this: FCP X keeps exporting the audio as a single large WAV file, rather than as separate WAV files. In fact, the video events are separate, and so the audio associated with the video Events are separate.
I first renamed the Role of every audio file as "Music", then did a Share --> Export Media of all "Music" audio Roles. After exporting, I found it was one large WAV file, rather than separate files of different sizes.
As a 2nd try, I created Sub-Roles for each audio clip, and named each one with a distinct Sub-Role name. I then Exported all these Sub-Roles (yes, tedious). The result was that every exported WAV file was the same size, the same as the file size in my first try. The only audio that could be heard in each file was the audio in that particular song, but FCP X still created the very large file with silence in all the rest of the file. Since the file lengths don't match the original audio fil lengths, there will be a problem when I Import the edited files back into FCP X and want to Snap them into place.
Question:
How can I export the individual detached audio clips as separate files, the length of each file equaling the length of the original audio file in FCP X?
Do I need to separate the detached audio into separate Layers visually in the Project Timeline, so they are not touching? Or does this matter?
Help!!

No.
You need to explore Compound Clips. This workflow may or may not be of help.
Select an Event with clips in it and press Option+G to make a (blank) compound clip.
Select the Event Browser, create a new Event and call it 'Effects'.
Drag the Compound Clip into this Event.
Right-click the clip and select 'Open in Timeline'.
Select the timeline and press Option+W. This will add a Gap Clip to the timeline.
Select the gap clip and press Ctrl+D then type in the duration you want the clip to be.
Now open a project and select and copy one of the clips with effects etc.
Open the Compound Clip in the Timeline again, select the gap clip and press Option+Cmd+V to paste the effects into your Compound Clip.
This clip is now saved in your Browser and will remain there for you to copy and then paste the effects into any clip in any project.
It's a bit clunky, but it works - and once you learn about Compound Clips, you can work wonders with them. As an example, if you want to add more effects without overwriting the effects in the Compound Clip, simply make the Compound Clip into a Compound Clip (again) and add the effects. They will be added to the original effects.

Button Pointing to audio file in same directory

I'm fairly new to Flash, but have gotten the hang of it for
the most part.
I'm trying to create audio buttons that will play vocabulary
words when clicked on for a language learning website. I can create
buttons that play audio when clicked, but as of now the only way I
know how to do it is to add the audio directly to the swf file. The
problem is this takes up about 24kb of space, and there will be
about 20 copies of the button per page, each for a different
vocabulary word.
I was thinking it would be nice if I could use the exact same
swf file to save on loading time, but have it point towards
different audio files. Basically, I figure if the audio is built
into the swf file, when the page loads it will take a long time,
because it will load all of the audio along with the files. if it
points separately, it will only load the audio when the button is
clicked.
Is it possible to do this? I've heard that you can use the
object tag to point towards separate audio files, but am not too
sure on how to pull that off. I'm just looking for a way to use the
button I've created and keep speeds reasonable when loading the
webpage. Loading 30 audio files at the beginning can slow it down,
especially if they only plan on playing a couple of them. Each mp3
is only a few kb larger than a swf file with the audio already in
it, so the compression of mp3 in a swf (at least from what I know)
didn't do too much for my case.
I figure I can put all the audio files in a folder along with
the swf file.

Remove audio files

even after i delete my iTunes folder i still have 13GB of audio files on my macbook air - why, and how can i get rid of the files?

If you sync by playlists, then remove the song from the playlist in itunes, then sync. The song will be removed from the ipod.
However, if you have genres, artists, etc checked, then you would have to remove that genre, artist,etc from the song info.
If you sync by checked song, then uncheck the song and sync.

Prevent audio files overlapping

I am developing an eLearning module in Flash CS5 using Actionscript 3.
On most frames an audio file plays, and then the timeline moves to the next frame.
In the background of each frame are four buttons where a user can click to jump to a different section of the course.
The problem I am having is that sometimes when a user clicks to jump to a different section, the timeline jumps; but then after a short delay the timeframes starts jumping between the old frame and the new frame and playing both audio clips. I suspect this problem is only occurring if the audio file has not fully loaded when the user clicks the button; but this is my first time using audio in Flash so I could be completely wrong.
What I would like to do is change the code so that when a user clicks a button to jump somewhere else, the code says stop loading audio and stop playing any audio, and then jump to the new frame.
Here is the relevant sections of the code I have on layer 1, frame 1:
import flash.media.SoundMixer;
// Event listeners
mcWhenLarge.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, When);
mcWhatLarge.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, What);
// Event handlers
function When(event:MouseEvent):void
      flash.media.SoundMixer.stopAll();
     gotoAndPlay(7):
function What(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndPlay(2);
      flash.media.SoundMixer.stopAll();
Layer 1 of most subsequent frames looks like this:
mcWhen1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, When);
mcWhen1.buttonMode = true;
And then Layer 2 of most frames looks something like this:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.media.Sound;
import flash.events.Event;
var soundReq1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Recording1.mp3");
var sound1:Sound = new Sound();
sound1.load(soundReq1);
sound1.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete1);
function onComplete1(event:Event):void
      sound1.play();
     setTimeout(gotoAndStop, 2000, 3);
Any help you can give me to stop this bug would be greatly appreciated.
M Hetherington

Thanks for that Ned. I have changed the button statements to gotoAndStop() rather than gotoAndPlay.
So I'm hoping to do now is have one layer that has a single set of actions with a channel that will control all the sounds. I can't get it to work the way I want though. Here's what I've got:
// first I do a different variable for each sound file
var soundReq1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Recording1.mp3");
var soundReq2:URLRequest = new URLRequest("Recording2.mp3");
// then I have the variables for the sound and the channel
var sound:Sound = new Sound ();
var soundControl:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
// then I tried to use entering a new frame to trigger a function to pick the right sound file
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME), whichSound);
function whichSound(event:Event):void
     if(this.currentFrame == 2){
          trace ("I found frame 2");
          sound.load(soundReq1);
          sound.play();
          setTimeout(gotoAndStop, 2000, 3);
     else if(this.currentFrame == 3){
          trace ("I found frame 3");
          sound.load(soundReq2);
          sound.play();
          setTimeout(gotoAndStop, 2000, 3);
It seems to be playing the audio; but I'm getting lots of "Error #2037: Functions called in incorrect sequence, or eariler call was unsuccessful" errors related to flash.media::Sound/_load().
Thanks in advance

Loosing audio files

I record an audio file with microphone, then I save the project and start a new one. When I open the earlier file again, GB tells me that it can't find audio file, for example "can't find recording#02.aiff" Can I find this lost file somewhere, and what might be reason for this annoying problem?

You specify "CS6," but do not indicate whether you have patched to the latest. If you haven't please do so.
Any time I hear "crash on launch" (or words to that effect), my first thought is that something in the preferences may be tripping up the app. You can clear the prefs by holding Shift+Option while launching the app--keep the keys pressed until PPRO finishes launching. If you've invested time customizing your prefs and want to be able to revert to them in case they weren't the cause of the problem, then you can manually move or rename them; let us know if you need help finding them.
Other possible culprits, in the order that I recommend proceeding:
If the crash occurs only when you launch directly into a particular project, then naturally that project is most likely the cause.
Drivers, especially for graphics card: update them (on Mac, that means updating OSX)
third party codecs: uninstall them
third party hardware: first update drivers. If that doesn't help, disconnect or disable the hardware

How do I find audio files missing from Mainstage?

Having downloaded mainstage additional content I find a number of wave files are missing. Example Exs24 'Full Strings Legato.exs' audio file KB-L_legato_p_A(hash)1.wav. How can I find and download them?

I've downloaded it twice already. You can't download what is not there.

2 Questions: Missing audio files...and How to delete audio files

I have two nagging issues associated with my podcast at iTunes.
First, audio files are missing from the podcast. Everytime I post m4a files to my podcast, they are added to an xml file, and to the podcast. The xml file is complete, but some files are not making the trip to the podcast.
Second, I have a need to delete some of the audio files which appear in my podcast. How do I do that?
Thanks!

As has been suggested you can encourage people to download QuickTime player by doing something like this...
http://www.mirroroftheuniverse.com/Songs.html
You can also present your songs like this...
http://roddymckay.com/Satellite/JukeBox.html
This is a SnoCap jukebox and you need an account to use it but you'll get the link to ESnips on the above page.
A 3 minute song has a file size of about 30 Mb in AIFF format. Converting it to MP3 reduces it to about 3.5 Mb and M4A to about 5.5 Mb.
iTunes will do these conversions for you and M4A is far superior to MP3 as far as sound quality is concerned.
