Nudging audio during playback with audio plugins applied causes crash

Hi,
We are having some unusual crashes at the moment in a very specific situation:
1. An audio effect is applied to at least one track of audio. Reverb and compression cause it but not EQ.
2. During playback
3. Nudging an audio clip using Alt and the left and right arrow keys. One nudge is ok, several quick nudges in succession causes a crash.
The machine starts beachballing and never seems to stop. Video playback continues.
This is obviously quite easy to workaround but just wondering if anyone else is having this issue and also wanted to highlight to Adobe.
Specs:
Mid 2010 Mac Pro 2 x 2.9GHz 6 Core Xeon
32GB RAM
nVidia GTX 680
240GB SSD boot drive
2TB internal cache drive
Adobe Premiere 8.1.0 (81) Build
OS 10.8.5
thanks
Tom

Same issues with nudging audio on a Mac here too. Flagged it on here last week but no response. Guess it's just you and I!

NO AUDIO DURING PLAYBACK ON TIMELINE

Ever since I tried using the Narration tool in Premiere Elements 12, I have had nothing but problems with audio. The narration tool itself cause Premiere to crash. I decided not to use it again, but I continue to have problems. I can hear audio in the clips when i play them through the source monitor, but if I drop it on the timeline, then there is no audio during playback. I've already checked my audio output settings and I've already tried restarting Elements and my Macbook. I've even tried to change the audio output devices just to make sure I didn't screw it up when trying to activate the microphone for narration. Please help!
*NOTE - this is only a problem in the current project. When I made a new project, it played back fine. The problem is that I have hundreds of assets that I've renamed with descriptive file names, as opposed to the formatted file name the camera gave them.

Good morning Steve.
Yes, there is a waveform on the clips. However, when I open Audio Mixer, I do not see any audio registering.
Also, I do not have a USB microphone plugged into my computer.
Finally, I have done the Audio Hardware check. I have tried using both "Built in Output" and "System Default Input/Output" but neither works.
Not sure if it helps to know this, but I have also tried to add music files to both Audio 1 track and also Soundtrack track. Neither one will play back audio on the timeline, even though I can clearly see the waveform on the file. It also does not register on the audio mixer. This tells me that it;s definitely an issue with this specific timeline. Is there any setting or mute button I may have accidentally changed? None of the mute buttons are checked off in the audio mixer.

NO AUDIO during playback after converting the VIDEO using Creative Video Conver

I have a ZEN 2GB/4GB/8GB/6GB/32GB.
I tried to convert video from a dvd using Creative Video Converter.
The video is fine but there is no audio during playback.
What am I doing wrong?

"If this is the case, the original video file may be in a format that contains muxed (multiplexed) audio and video, and cannot be exported with audio."..."If the format is "MPEG1 Muxed" or "MPEG2 Muxed," the audio portion of the file may not be retained with QuickTime Pro or iMovie."
I have read that article and I thought it ment that the sound will work after you convert to the MPEG4 format, which I did.
Are you saying that if it starts out as "Muxed audio" then there is no way to convert it?
If that is the case then in what situation would you need to use the Videora Converter?
Thanks,
Sean

No audio during playback

Hello all, I am extremely consfused as to what is wrong with the premiere pro settings. I have a blackmagic intensity pro installed. I can use it just fine to capture video. No matter what audio files or Videos I use, the audio meters show audio during playback, but my speakers are not playing anything. I have searched for a solution. My only guess is that the program is pointing audio to the blackmagic intensity pro and not to my audio card. Any suggestions?

I talked to Blackmagic about this problem and was told that they could only guarantee audio/video sync if their output was used so their presets only let you do this. With the Decklink studio this is a bit of a pain if you are working in 5.1 as there are only 4 analogue outs, I had to build a rack of D to As to get my monitoring working.

No audio during playback Premier Pro CC

I'm having a problem hearing audio during playback. The audio indicater moves up and down, but there is no sound. I already downloaded and reinstalled 3 times, to no avail. I'm using Windows 7. Could anyone help?

Here is a screenshot of the audio preferences.Audio device is Realtek high definition audio>. I'm using desktop speakers.

Why do my EMPTY audio tracks playback ANOTHER audio track?

Why do my EMPTY audio tracks playback ANOTHER audio track?
Example: A vocal track (audio 2) being played through an empty guitar track (audio 1).
The vocal track is magically being played through the guitar track with distortion. WHAT possible feature is this good for and how do I get rid of this annoying problem? I looked at the reassign tracks menu and it doesn't say its connected or anything... I don't know if this has been addressed before on this site but I can't find the answer any where on Apple Discussion's website. Please help.
Thanks

A key concept to understand is that Logic is more flexible when it comes to "tracks" than most other DAWs.
For instance, most DAW use a fixed "one arrange track is one audio channel" approach.
Logic doesn't. You can have many arrange tracks all assigned to the same audio mixer channel (although only one will sound at a time).
You probably have two arrange tracks assigned to the same audio object (key command "New arrange track with same object") rather than creating a new arrange track together with a new independent audio channel (key command "New arrange track with next object").
Try this. Hit the + button at the top of the track list, and create a new audio track. This creates a new arrange track and assigns it to the next available audio object.
Move your second region to this new track - does that work as you expect now?

Video losing sync with audio during playback

I am having a unique issue with FCP 6.0.6.
We are using this version to log and capture a switched video feed with audio
through a Black Magic DeckLink HD Extreme 3 PCI card. Capture works fine.
But during playback the next day, the video seems to drop a frame, or lose sync
(you can see it visually) then continues playing. The result is the video is now
out of sync with the audio.
We do a weekly 3 camera shoot which is webcast, and then later uploaded to youtube.
We have been running this setup for a number of years without issue, but this has started
becoming an issue the last 3 weeks in a row with no change to our setup.
The webcast does not experience this, which makes me think there is a sync issue
between my switcher and my FCP machine.
Any thoughts or ideas?
Mac Pro
3GHz Quad Core Intel
16 GB Ram
OS 10.6.8

Are you ABSOLUTELY sure there was NO change? (All sorts of problems can occur if you haven't turned off automatic updates.)
In any case, you might want to run Preference Manager from Digital Rebellion (free) to delete the FCP prefs. Sometimes they get corrupted and can cause some funky behaviors.
Otherwise, sounds like a question for Blackmagic technical support.

IDVD slideshow DVD pauses video and audio during playback...messages about sleeping DVD player

I have just burned a slideshow on iDVD from iPhoto book project. During playback, the DVD player pauses with photo visible and audio stops for same time, and then resumes after about 5 seconds. I thought the MP3 (purchased from Amazon because it was not in iTunes) format may have been the issue, so, I converted to AAC, and rebuilt slideshow from scratch using AAC music. During Preview playback, the problem does NOT exhibit...only when played from produced DVD on both computer or DVD player. I only have this one pause at same time on every DVD burned. Is AIFF a probable solution? I saw a message saying DVD player "Sleeping" or "DVD player waked from sleeping" at beginning and end of this pause.

Whoa!!! I'd back up here and make sure you have your "T" s crossed before your continue with 10,000 discs! What were your bitrates for the main track and Bonus features? Did you use AC3 audio? DVD has a bitrate ceilings of 9.8 for video. Its also important you check your bitrates in a viewer to makes sure your OK.
Bitrates are the most crucial part to control in DVD.

FAQ: Why is there no audio during playback?

See this troubleshooting document:
"No sound during playback in Adobe Premiere Pro"

Just click the Mute button for just a second, then unmute it by clicking it again. This causes iChat to reassess the connection and that might do the trick.
You need iChat version 3.1.8 (445), AIM 6.1 should be on the PC and your friend needs a built in microphone in this webcam.

Intermittent pauses during Playback with Captivate 6

I am running Adobe Captivate 6.0.0.199... "Non-Quiz" slides intermittently pause during playback, but, only the animated text... the audio continues. This occurs regardless of a variety of export configurations I have tried. Ideas?

Hello and welcome,
Please upgrade ASAP to 6.0.1.240. The version you are using has a lot of bugs, that were fixed with this patch released in October 2012 (not a typo - more than one year ago). Go to Help, Updates.
Maybe you problem will be solved with that update,

Short cut when loading VST effect during playback with CS6

Hi !
I'm a Audition CS6 user. I love this software, but I have a little problem.
During playback in multitrack session, when I'm loading a VST effect or even an internal Auditon effect, there is, every time at this moment, a short cut of the sound.
It's really boring and I didn't have this trouble with Audition 3.
I have the same problem when I want to group some tracks, at this moment, during playback, the same short cut, or mute.
I don't find any answer in the settings, have you got a solution ?
thank you in advance and Merry Xmas !

I don't think that it is intended that you should add effects or change the grouping whilst playback is on going. Audition has to adjust all the tracks for any delay that might be required to keep all the tracks synchronised. I suspect that it has to reload the audio buffers to take account of this which causes a brief break or mute whilst it does so. So load up any effects that you might use into the Effects Rack before you start playback. You can then switch the effects in and out of circuit hopefully without any breaks since I believe that any effects in the rack are catered for even if not active.

Static during playback with soundfonts

I'm trying to bring a MIDI file into GarageBand and play it back using various soundfonts. However, when I choose "DLS Music Device" as my tone generator and assign a soundfont, I hear a loud hissing and crackling sound during playback. I only hear this when I'm using a soundfont, not with any of GarageBand's internal sounds.
I've tried several soundfonts, most of which I've used successfully in other applications, but none of them will play consistently in GarageBand without the hissing.
Any ideas?

It happens even in a brand new project. I have an empty project apart from 1 track with the mic as an input. No plug ins or anything on it. I've tried the same switching the mic for a guitar with no problem. The guitar sounds perfect while playing and in playback but with the mic I can't hear anything when recording and the volume on the fader is very low so I have to normalise the track to hear the vocals are a good level. I've always done this with no issues but now it seems to be bringing out all these horrible noises. I should add that the vocals themselves are perfectly fine with no distorting, only this strange static sound during gaps in speech. Not sure if that narrows it down at all?
Ok the fact that the volume is very low is something to correct first, because that's not right. That mic requires either Phantom power or two AA batteries to function, do you have that provided? The Mic input gain on the Line-6 Pod is where you raise the recording level.
It might also help if you posted a screen shot of logic's Audio preferences.

IPod Nano 4G Skips During Playback with Apple Lossless Songs

My iPod Nano 4th Generation has been consistently skipping a brief portion of music about every 5th Apple Lossless song during playback. I've been working unsuccessfully to resolve this issue with tech support and fixed the problem when I disabled the energy level setting in the playback menu. While this is a hit to battery life, the skipping no longer occurs. Hoping that this issue is permanently resolved in an upcoming software update.

Hi,
I brought my ipod yesterday and had the exact same issue. it would skip certain songs frequently and was extremely frustrating. Im not sure if this is the case for all ipods (i have an ipod nano 16Gb 4th gen, with firmware 1.0.4), but i fixed my issue in a series of steps. Im not sure which exact part of my method did the job, but here it is:
1. plugged it into iTunes and clicked "restore" under the tab "summary". WARNING: This will delete everything, and restore factory settings. im not sure if this is necessary, but youll need to delete the songs which skip anyway.
2. pressed the eject button IN ITUNES (under "devices", and next to your ipod icon), ejecting the ipod. wait for the ipod to specify when it is ready for it to be unplugged. proceed to unplug said ipod.
3. Choose the language of your ipod, and go into playback settings and (settings/playback or something) and turn OFF "shake" and "energy saver"
4. Plug your ipod into your computer again and drag all the songs onto your ipod using itunes.
5. after it has finished copying, WAIT until the ipod no longer says "synching", and until it says "connected"
6. Press the eject button IN ITUNES (again, under devices, and next to your ipod icon)
7. Eject when the ipod says it is ok to do so.
As i said, im not sure which part of the method did it for me, but i think it might be the way in which i was ejecting it. Before i was ejecting the ipod on my desktop. I think it is important to eject it using itunes. Anyway this fixed my ipod. Im not sure if it will do the same to yours, but if its making you very angry (to say the least) like it made me, its worth a try i guess. I would appreciate it if people let me know if this works.

Device driver error msg at startup-get white screen w/audio during playback

PE10 has been working fine until today.
Upon startup I get an error message saying my display driver is incompatible.
I checked the driver in Windows 7-it says the driver is up to date and working fine.
When playing back a video clip I'm editing in PE10, I get a white screen in the playback area with the correct audio. When I pause the playback, the video image appears. Play = white playback screen.
I have
-checked the display driver
-rolled my computer back to an earlier restore point
-uninstalled and reinstalled PE10
-turned off my firewall
Any other suggestions to try?

What version of Premiere Pro? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Pro CS5.5 with the 5.5.2 update).
Premiere Elements 10
Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
none available
What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
Windows 7 AMD dual-core processor
AMD Radeon HD 6310 display driver
What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime".
MVI files from camera -- all worked fine in PE10 until today - same files play fine in other players
If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
What were you doing when the problem occurred?
Starting up PE10
Has this ever worked before?
Yes, always until today.
What other software are you running?
None
Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
No
Tell us about your computer hardware. Be especially certain to tell us about third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU).
I'm not techie and don't know what this means - I don't have anything mentioned in brackets
Are you using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration?
no
Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both?
Error message above happens during startup
PE10 now loads really slowly (5 minutes)
Playback in project gives white screen instead of video. Audio is fine.

Premiere Pro CC freezes on a frame during playback, but audio keeps playing?

Hi,
First time poster, long time visitor to the boards. Running a new Mac "Pony Keg" (I think calling it a "trash can" invites bad performance ) with OSX 10.9.5. Here's a recurring issue: I am playing back a sequence and then it will freeze on a frame (different everytime) and the audio keeps playing. I can stop the playback and it will continue to play, but the frame is locked in. Next, I'll quit out of the app, and try to reopen, but nothing happens because Premiere never actually quit. I'll pull up Force Quit window and it reads as "not responding." I'll Force Quit, relaunch the project and things will work again for a while, and then I need to do a whole reboot. Any thoughts on what might be causing this freeze frame issue or why Premiere won't actually quit? I've seen these posts in some various threads, but not these two issues in the same thread. Thanks in advance for any help and insights offered!
Best,
Tracy

Hi Tracy,
I would suggest these things:
Do this first: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later)
If that doesn't help, Change the Video Renderer to Mercury Playback Engine software only under File > Project settings > General. Delete previews after clicking on OK.
If nothing helps, try this:
Go to the following locations:
Location 1: When in Finder, click on Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe
Location 2: Go > Go to Folder > ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe
Location 3: Documents > Adobe
In all the locations, rename the 'Adobe' folders to 'OldAdobe'
Launch Premiere, accept the License Agreement and see if it works.
Note: You will lose your customized workspaces, keyboard shortcuts and media cache.
Thanks,
Rameez
