MyDAQ errors on audio channels

I have LabView2012, a myDAQ and the 9.6.2 drivers. I cannot get the DAQ assistant to work with the audio channels. I get the following error:
Error -201087
Task contains physical channels on one or more devices that requrie you to specify the sample clock rate.
Use the sample clock timing function/vi to specify a sample clock rate.
channel name/ device1/audioinputleft.
This error does not make sense because in the DAQ assitant I can run the task and it acquires data just fine, but when I click OK, let it build the application and then try to run it it won't work and gives this error.
I also get the same error when I try to test the task in the mydaqtroubleshooting utility
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I would try not using one of the examples instead of the DAQ assistant. Go to help->find examples->hardware input output->DAQmx->analog input the select the example VI that matches your application, like continous voltage. These examples should be able to do all the things that DAQ assistant will be able to do and the DAQmx timing VI will be in there so you should be able to get rid of the error.

While importing clip getting error "The file contains too many audio channels" in premiere pro cs5

Hey,
I am using video clips from sony digital hi8 camera and trying to import video clips (.mov) 720*480 fps 29.97 .But unable to get into premiere pro cs5.System configuration:
MAC 10.6.4

nvidia geforce gt 330 mn.
Error :
Actually ,i have checked the inspector panel and i found same infomation in
in this panel for both clips .please check these clips screen shoots seprately .
Actually i have a long video clip and i have scatterred this clip into 6 diffrent portions
where i am not able to import the last video clip.It is giving me same error "file contain too many audio channels"".
Regards
Manoj

I too am getting this error in Premiere CS5. I was digitizing a Broadcast VHS and since I did not have a breakout box, I hooked it up to a Sony DV deck so I could connect via firewire and capture inside Premiere. I was able to capture and import 1 of the 3 clips and it did have 4 audio channels attached to it. However, upon closer inspection only 2 channels had a waveform. I captured the other 2 clips the same way, but this time, Premiere give the error "The file contains too many audio channels."
Any ideas?

Trying to re-link files after a PC crash :( I get an error saying audio file has 1 channel original

The exact error reads:
"The selected file cannot be linked because it has 1 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 2 audio channels"
Now, the project was created with the video file I am linking to, not a different one, the same one, but it absolutely will not let me use the file that it was linked to before, because of this message?
The file hasn't changed, nothing has changed, (except the drive number, which is why I'm having to re-link it), it just wont work.
Unfortunately, the clip is a good 10-minutes of the project, which was saved before the crash, but now I'm stuck with a project it looks like I am going to have to re-edit?
Has anyone seen this and/or got a fix for it?
Thanks for any help, cheers, Neil.

Jim, apologies, you are of course correct.
The file is an .avi
Actually, I think some files have been lost in the crash, or corrupted, and as I still have all the original edit in-place, I'm just going to bite the bullet and replace them with the files.
I wish it was possible to re-link folders, rather than individual files inside them.. :( If it can be done, I can't seem to suss it!
Anyway, leave it with me, thanks for the quick response though Jim, much appreciated

Error message 'the selected file cannot be linked because it has 2 audio channels and the clip was created with 1 audio channel'

Can anyone help with the error message I'm getting 'the selected file cannot be linked because it has 2 audio channels and the clip was created with 1 audio channel'. I had to move the footage to another folder and now am unable to link it - just getting this error message instead.... Has anyone had to deal with this before?
Thank you!

Error message: The selected file cannot be linked because it has 6 audio channel(s) and the clip was

I recently purchased/upgraded from Premiere Elements 5 to Premiere Elements 9 and I cannot open the projects in version 9 that were created with version 5. It shows it as offline. I get a message to open up a file and when I do i receive the error message: The selected file cannot be linked because it has 6 audio channel(s) and the clip was created with 2 audio channels. Can someone help me or tell what I am doing wrong? All of my projects that were completed in version 5 cannot be opened up in version 9.
Thank you.

Bill,
I ran G-Spot on one of the files and here it what I have:
DVD "VOB" format
MPEG-2 Program Stream << { 1 vid, 1 aud }
Sys Bitrate: 10080 kb/s VBR
I guess I am really confused. The project that I am trying to open PrE 9 was completed in PrE 3 w/templates , scenes, etc. The movie was burned to a DVD. I cannot understand why I cannot open it with a newer version of PrE. According to G-Spot (I am assuming this is what you mean above), it is already in 2 channels. To me this should be ok. I put many, many hours into these videos and now it seems all for not.
Here is what I did so far:
I uploaded the required media files to a new project in PrE9 and let them index and conform. I saved the project with the same name in a different location. Do I have to do this to the project files and/or the original media files? Confusion starts here.
The next step is where I am confused. I do not know if I am proceeding in the right direction from here. There is the share tab in the upper right hand corner. Is this what you are talking about? I am truly lost from here.
Thanks.

Can't export audio channel

Hi everyone,
I have this big and long project (1h30) I'm trying to export and it takes a while to do it (4-5h).
I tried couple format and I finally exported it with MPEG -> HDTV 720.
Problem the audio channel is missing. as it's really long to export it again, I tried to export only the audio part but I always get the error "Error commpiling move. Unknow error".
Expert if I'm exporting with aac format but this gives me a really ugly kinda noise.
I tried with only the 2 1st minutes of the movie and it exported well.
Any suggestion? Please this is kinda of urgent!
I'm using PE 10
Thanks!

With "Error compiling movie," I would start with the links in this Tips & Tricks article: Got "Error Compiling Movie?" This Might Help

"The source and output audio channels are not compatible or a conversion does not exist" - ?

I'm trying to export from Premiere Pro for a f4v file that matches all source settings except resizing the video. I've done this a million times but today, when I hit EXPORT, I'm getting an error message from Adobe Media Encoder that says "the source and output audio channels are not compatible or a conversion does not exist." I'm using wav, mov and mts files in my audio tracks and everything plays happily in the timeline. Any ideas?
Thanks for any help!

Sounds like you unsuccessfully trying to output a 5.1 Master to a stereo or mono file. Or something along those lines.

Silent Audio Channels in Compressed Output Files ...

Has anyone experienced dead silent audio channels in exported MP3 or Podcast/AAC files?
This is included in the application release notes:
Exporting to Compressed Formats
" If you export to compressed formats (MP3 or AAC) using devices that do not use class-compliant Core Audio drivers built into Mac OS X on Intel-based Macintosh computers, the audio track of the exported file may be silent. To avoid this issue, use the Audio MIDI Setup utility to change your default output audio device to Built-in or to a device that uses the class-compliant Core Audio drivers before exporting files."
I'm on a Dual PPC G5, and my Motu interface is compliant. All exported compressed files [with or without video in AAC exports] have silent audio channels.
Any news on this?

All the pods are set to master. I've never set any sub-mix tracks in the
past, and, yes, these are set to zero (but I didn't do it). I set the submix
to 3 for each Stereo & Mono in project settings, default sequence.
Made no difference.
Original audio is standard from a Sony professional camera. Same
camera I've used on a number of occasions.
What baffles me is that I just don't understand the error message
language. In other words: what is it saying?

OK, the Master is Stereo, and you have 3 Mono Tracks, that should
mix-down to that Stereo Master, which will not be a problem.
Now, it appears that you have no Sub-mix Tracks. Is that correct?
Check to see what the Track Mapping is set to for each of those Mono
Tracks. They should be set to Master.
Having the Track Mapping set improperly could possibly result in this
type of issue, as DVD's can only have a limited number of Audio
streams and these are well-defined.
Maybe someone else will have more ideas for you.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - as a note, one cannot use ADL to Encore, if the Master is DD 5.1
SS, as that must go through the Minnetonka Audio SurCode DD 5.1 SS
encoder plug-in to get a DD 5.1 SS AC3. That does not seem to be
your case though.

When I merge clips the number of audio channels double

I have a .mov file from my 5diii that has stereo audio and a .wav mono file from my audio recorder.
When I drag a clip into a bin (for sorting) it merges the clip.
That merged clip now has 6 audio channels instead of 3.
It also happens if I select them and just choose merge from the menu.
Anyone know what's going on with this?

Simply dragging a clip to a bin shouldn't be merging anything. I've never heard of that behavior, and suspect some observer error on that one.
Do you intend to use the original camera audio?

AME merging audio channels

I have mxf clips with two channels of audio recorded on different microphones. The channels contain different content so I want to keep them separate. Media encoder (and every other transcoder that I have tried) merges the two channels into two identical channels. The only choices are mono (only gives me one channel), stereo (does the merging), and 5.1 (not appropriate).
Is there some way to convert the clips to Apple ProRes and keep the channels independent?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Catherine,
I've learned that this is a result of the fact that XDCAM is interpreted by default as split mono. The only option I've found within PPRO/AME to preserve the two original audio streams as separate channels is what I suggested earlier: drop the content onto a sequence in PPRO and use the Audio Mixer to put Audio 1 entirely on one channel and Audio 2 on the other.
A colleague suggested setting the source to Stereo through the Modify Clip dialog (in PPRO, right-click the clip, Modify>Audio Channels). I tried a few tests of that option in CS5.5 with no success, but that's not my area, so user error is an entirely plausible explanation.
I've entered two related feature requests that would enable AME users to avoid mixing streams without going through PPRO.

Get 4 audio channels out through SDI whit BlackMagic UltraStudio Express

Hi,
We have some issues with the Blackmagic UltraStudio Express and Premiere Pro.
We need to get out 4 audio channels through SDI for different broadcast and news feeds. We can't do that with the UltraStudio Express on different Mac Book Pro (one on OS 10.9 and one on 10.8.5) with Premiere pro CC and Premiere pro CS6. (We have try with the driver 9.9.3 and 9.6.8). The only thing we manage to monitor out of the UltraStudio is 2 audio channels.
We know it "could" work as :
- We are able with the same setup to get 4 audio channels via FCP 7.0
- We are able with a Mac Pro OS10.8.5 + Blackmagic Decklink HD Extreme 2 (driver 9.6.8) to get 4 audio channels with Adobe Premiere CC
Do you have maybe a solution for this ?
Have a nice day !
Best regards
Yann-David Urbanowicz

My ipod's music quality is inferior. It doesnt have the surround sound/ left and right audio channel unlike my brothers ipod? is there a problem with the chip?

I have an ipod touch 4g (8GB), I got this about 2.5 months ago, the same time my brother get his. My problem is that I noticed that audio quality is better on his device than mine. I have been listening to music and had different music devices before (non-Apple product and mobile phone) and the quality of music is better when I used to listen to those devices as well as my brother's ipod touch. Im referring to the left and right audio channels. Im not so good about the technical stuff but the best explanation I can give you is in a music or a movie, there's an effect wherein you can here a sound only at the left ear phone/speaker that you cant hear at the right earphone/speaker. I mean for example in a song, a guitar intro can be heared only at the left
ear while the background music plays on the other ear. Or when theres and echo effect on the song that alternates sound on the left and right ear. I hope youre getting what Im trying to say. Im bothered that my ipod is fake or has an internal problem on the chips or something because I didnt bought this at an Apple Center/Mac Center. I bought it on a retailer. I am not able to visit any store or Genius Bar or contact an apple specialist through phone because of my work schedule and work load. I have contacted the retailer before when I tried to return it for replacement or repair but he told me that it is under Apple's warranty, not theirs. I do hope that I can get a help from you because I want to really enjoy my device. Thank you and Im looking forward for the responce/assistance form you.

I suggest you don't apply pressure to the screen - it's a Touch - you touch the screen not push it.

How do I export from FCP to a QuickTime file with multiple audio channels?

I'm delivering a project where the first step is to generate an HD Cam SR master, which I will be doing at a post-production lab. They will then do a QC check for me. To generate this HD Cam SR master, they need to me to bring in my 98-minute long movie on a firewire hard drive, in five equal parts -- QuickTime files. From these five QT files, the lab will then be creating an HD Cam SR master that will have...
dialogue on tracks 1 and 2
effects on tracks 3 and 4
music on tracks 5 and 6
MY QUESTION
a) I don't see any way to separate these audio tracks accordingly in the FCP menu for QuickTime export. Does anyone have any experience doing this?
b) And does anyone know the most efficient way to combine timeline audio tracks for this purpose? I have my dialogue sitting on the first FOUR audio tracks, actually. To deliver this film, I'll need to crush these four audio tracks to two, as listed above. I could generate an AIFF file, I suppose, import it back onto the timeline, sync it up, and then re-export along with the visuals to make the final QT file, but this seems like a generation loss.
thanks,
Shanked
PS the movie is made up of footage from a Sony PMW EX1. I used the codec "XDCAM 1080 24p 35mbs VBR" for editing in FCP. I'll either export to QT using this same codec or switch to "Apple ProRes" if my machine can somehow maintain the sync.

The following will answer both your questions a) and b).
Click on your master timeline and press cmd+0 (zero) to bring up Sequence Settings, then click on the Audio Outputs tab on the right. Click on the Outputs option and change it to 6. You can leave them as Stereo pairs.
Now, back on your timeline, you need to make sure all your audio is organised so each track. A1, A2, A3, A4 etc has all the relevant media on it.
Then, on the left of the timeline you see the Destination toggle buttons, then you see the Padlocks to lock tracks, then you have the Toggle Auto Select squares. If you right-click on the Toggle Auto Select squares you bring up a little sub-menu, at the top of this list you'll see Audio Outputs, which will show the stereo channels for that particular track. As you've changed the number of Audio Outputs in the Sequence Settings, the list will show: 1&2, 3&4, 5&6. You just tick whichever channels you want.
In your case, you have dialogue on the first 4 tracks, no problem, just go down through tracks 1,2,3 and 4 as described above and assign these to Audio Outputs 1&2.
Then just go down through your music and effects audio tracks and assign them accordingly.
Now, when you export your timeline as a self-contained media file, it will have different audio channels.
I hope that makes sense. When you change the number of audio outputs as described in the first step, I believe the rest of it is fairly self explanatory, once you know where the settings are.

Help using multiple audio channels for one video

Hi,
I have a video file with 3 audio files (stereo (.wav), 5.1 surround (.AC3), and commentary (.wav).
I have placed these on the time line of the video track, but now I need to have buttons to target each of them from a menu. However, when is choose a buttons target, is doesn't give me the option of which audio channel to play (A1/A2/A3 etc).
Is this possible with just one track, or do I need 3 (each with a different audio file as A1)?
Hope you can help! cheers.
Tim

There is a tutorial on setting this up here;
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/dvd_languagenattress.html
BTW I would very strongly suggest to compress your WAV files to stereo AC3 files. It will reduce your overall bandwidth, and you will have a disc that will less problems in playing.

Feature Request: Modify Audio Channels from the Timeline in Premiere CC.1

Why have we never been able to modify audio channels once a clip is added to a sequence? I'm guessing there's a good reason Adobe has never had this feature. The lack of this feature is explicitly mentioned a few times in the audio section of the Premiere Pro CC manual, as if it's a benefit NOT to have it. But the benefit is entirely lost on me.
In my workflow, I synchronize my double-system video and audio before anything else. I do this in PluralEyes (and unfortunately I'll have to keep doing it this way, until PPr's sync on sound feature gets fixed—for me it's never worked).
Once PluralEyes has synched hours of footage and audio and placed it on a PLURALEYES GENERATED sequence, I import that sequence into Premiere. Note: Since I haven't gone through the step of creating a blank New Sequence, I don't get the opportunity to setup my audio channels the way I'd like in my sequence (i.e. Stereo recordings should occupy ONE track, not two. Typically these tracks come from a camcorder and are used for reference sound, or ambient noise at best, so I don't need them taking up precious real estate in my sequence).
Since PluralEyes doesn't merge my clips for me (or rather I don't want it to since I'm usually doing multi-cam sequences where I want to keep all 14, or so, tracks of audio), I have to go through the clips one by one and do a Merge Clip action once I've adjusted any minor sync issues, or determined which tracks I actually want to keep. But, and here's the key, at this stage I'm not yet 100% certain whether I'll use the nat sound or the wireless mic sound (separate audio recorder, etc). Furthermore, I don't really want to think about that at this point. After I've spent a few mind-numbing hours just ingesting files, sync and merges, I want to jump into the edit as soon as possible, before I lose all will to finish this edit. If I modify my audio channels right now, I'll lose the ability to make some creative decisions later on.
I'd like to start whacking out an assembly edit. And then after I have a rough program, I can start looking at which audio tracks (nat or double-system) I like better in each circumstance. This is where I become stumped that at this stage, I'm locked into whatever audio channels I've setup (or not) in the earliest stage of the edit, back before any media was actually on the timeline! It's at this stage, and usually only at this stage that I want to start Modifying Channels—FROM THE TIMELINE!
Does anyone else feel the same? If not, what is your workflow?
Feature Summary: Right-click on any clip, (master clip, sub-clip, merged, nested or otherwise) in the timeline and choose Modify > Audio Channels.
I've submitted a feature request, with a link back to this discussion, so please pipe in—especially if you want this feature.

Maybe its your specific workflow, asset mangement and use of a 3rd party application that runs you into an issue.
Take Pluraleyes out of the equation, I would imagine my workflow is the same as most everyone else. Find footage in the Media Browser. Import it. Create a Sequence and start editing. Use the Source Monitor to set Ins and Outs and then Insert the clip on the timeline.
At this point, if the audio needs to be modified, it cannot be done on the Timeline. The workaround, of course, is to Find Clip in Project; Modify Audio in the Project panel; then do a Matchframe to replace the audio clip. This works, but requires many steps per clip. Also, Matchframe in Premiere Pro CC is not reliable.
Introducing a new Modify Audio (from Timeline) feature as seen in the fantasy screenshot above would solve it.
I dont use Pluraleyse ...which I understand to be a synching aid...so I dont know the workflow it imposes on one .
Returning to Pluraleyes workflow, this issue is compounded by the need to Modify almost ALL audio. Every stereo track is separated and placed on two MONO tracks taking up precious real estate. This is not something Pluraleyes imposes. It is due to the way Premiere imports XML timelines. This would apply to sequences imported from Final Cut as well.
In this case it would be ideal to select both the LEFT and RIGHT mono tracks and choose "Modify > Audio Channels > Merge L/R Mono to a Single Stereo track." Ideal? No. I guess Ideal would be if Premiere would interpret XML files properly in the first place.
What actually is the issue with Premieres synch and merge workflow in your case?
Audio Sync in Premiere Pro doesn't work. Period.
