Please help.  My audio track is too low after exporting movie made with Premiere Pro to YouTube.

Hello.  My crew and I recently completed post-production on an  independent film.  We used Adobe Premiere Pro 5.0 for video and audio  editing.  We had a very low budget for production, so we didn't have the best audio equipment to record sound with.  So in editing, we had to do quite a bit of sound mixing to minimize background/ambient noise and interferences/distortions caused by large electrical appliances in some indoor scenes, such as taverns and cafes.  We managed to clean up the audio, and the audio ultimately sounded great.  However, when we exported the film to YouTube, the entire audio track sounded low.  To hear the film at an adequate level on YouTube, the volume has to be turned all  the way up.  I'm wondering what can be done to export the film to YouTube and maintain strong, optimal audio volume/quality.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you and take care.

As Jeff of Safeharbor noted, you really need to check the audio meters in Prpro with your "final" project. I found that I could have a sound level that played fine on my computer, but ... on exporting to a DVD ... was way low and required a very high setting on any other computer or a tv to be able to hear. I hadn't actually looked at the audio meters. On checking them ... yeah, the peak was down about -18, the main content of the talking-heads was below that. After raising it with PrPro's audio tools, the sound was fine.
I'd bet your sound is showing low on the meters ...

  • DVD - audio track volume too low; can adjust??

    I've got a commercial movie DVD and when I play it back using the default Apple DVD player, I notice that at any given time, the background music audio track is very loud, while the dialog is extremely quiet. Before I decide that it's a bad DVD and needs to be returned, I wonder if I'm missing some setting (Dolby or whatever): is there any way to bring up the volume of specific individual tracks from a DVD?

    In DVD player preferences, Disc Setup, uncheck the box "Disable Dolby dynamic range compression".
    That may help. If it's already unchecked there's nothing more you can do.

  • HELP!  Audio goes out of sync after export!

    OK, folks. I need your help. I have a looming deadline of THIS FRIDAY to hand this in.
    I have a finished multicam edit of a show that runs 1 hr 20 min. It plays back perfectly in the timeline, all video and audio perfectly in sync. Looks and sounds exactly like what I need.
    When I export the video as an H.264 file, the audio gets out of sync with the video by 13 frames! But that's not all... It doesn't happen to the entire audio track. There's about 50 minutes in the middle of the video where the audio goes out of sync. The audio at the beginning and ending of the video is lined up perfectly in sync. It's just the middle section that gets screwy.
    What do I do?!
    This has never happened before, and I've worked a lot with multicam in Premiere Pro CC before this. Never been an issue. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Premiere, and also deleting all media cache files, but still no dice.  I also tried copying the clips into a new sequence in the same project, copying the clips into a new sequence in a NEW project, nesting the sequence... nothing works.
    My setup:
    MacBook Pro Retina (Rev. A)
    Premiere Pro CC (latest version)
    Panasonic GH3 footage in 1080p 24p AVCHD timeline
    3 cameras & 1 audio WAV file in Multicam
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    OK, I figured out how to fix it:
    In Premiere Pro CC, click on SEQUENCE > DELETE RENDER FILES.
    Try exporting the movie again.
    It worked! I exported the same sequence, and it took a long while to re-render the audio files, but when it was finished exporting the audio and video were in perfect sync. I'm not sure what caused it, but this fixed it, so hopefully anyone else having this issue can save a lot of time by reading this.
    Cheers!

    Dear Apple,
    I have an iPhone 4 32GB (black), i bought from softbank, japan. Now, I have recently finished a graduate and i'll comeback home in Laos. But i can't continue to use my iphone.
    Could you please help me to unlock my phone so I can use it with other carrier Sims. I would appreciate it.
    Please let me know if you could help me out. Thanks again.
    <Edited by Host>

    Like ckuan said, Apple does not unlock iPhone; your carrier does, provided that the carrier offers this service.
    Unfortunately, SoftBank does not offer authorized unlocking of iPhone.
    Your best option is to sell this phone and buy another iPhone from the carrier of your choice or better buy a factory unlocked iPhone so you would be able to use it with any compatible GSM carrier around the world.

    Welcome to the forum.
    First thing that I would do would be to look at this Adobe KB Article to see if it helps.

  • Quicktime X not seeing audio track in MPEG IMX 625/50 movie file.

    Quicktime X is not seeing the audio track in MPEG IMX 625/50 movie files that I generate elsewhere. This is evident by the fact that Quicktime X player will not play the audio track or report that it exists and likewise in FCP X. However Quicktime 7 Player will play the audio track. What's more, the preview pane play option on the movie file icon will actually play back the audio track in the preview mode. Any ideas?

    Ok, I have posted 2 images. One is the of the movie inspector from Quicktime 7 Player which shows the audio track properties for BARS.mov. The other is the movie inspector properties for Quicktime X for BARS.mov. As can be seen, Quicktime X Player does not detect the audio track which is present.
    I'm not sure how to make the BARS.mov file available. It's only 10MB.

  • Best Export / Video settings for Premiere Pro. Help Needed.

    What's the best settings when you want to export a video from Premiere Pro for the web or otherwise. Best settings = good quality video and LOW file size.
    Benchmark : The videos on Apple Trailers. Check them out at http://www.apple.com/trailers
    The trailers are of high quality video, great sounds, and the Large sizes all fall under the 25MB mark. Any ideas on HOW this is done and what
    settings in Premiere Pro CS3 might be able to replicate such standards?
    Any help is appreciated. I normally use Encoder and export using H264 but that always seems to have an Audio lag. Any similar issues?
    Thanks a mil!

    I understand that better quality = bigger file size. That's true in most cases, but there is a way around it, I'm just not sure what that way is. As I mentioned in the original post, the benchmark is http://www.apple.com/trailers . The non-HD videos on any movie page on that site hardly ever exceeds the 25MB mark. The videos are 2-3minutes long, and while they may not be top-notch BD visuals, they look way better than 95% of the stuff that's streamed off the net.
    That's why I asked if anyone had any ideas on how to replicate something like that. Say I had a avi file of great quality, shot with a Panasonic DV Cam. I Capture the footage, do whatever I have to in Pr, and the result is now a 3minute video. I want it exported to a Quicktime file, I want it to look visually pleasing like the trailers on Apple, and I want it to fall under 25MB. I have tried H.264 encoding, regular Quicktime, and Quicktime via Encoder. Nothing reaches the expected quality.
    For more examples visit http://www.passionpictures.com.my/pages/recent.aspx and download those simple 30second clips. All Quicktime, mostly under 5.5MB. If Pr can't do it, then I don't know what can...so I'm sure Pr can do it.
    Problem is, how? Experimentation is definitely a way to go, I get that. But on the basis of the scenario given above...how is it done?

  • Strangest audio issue I have ever experienced with Premiere Pro CS6

    I made a video for a company to use on their website, and when I exported it, it all seemed fine.  However, whenever it is viewed on any other computer but mine, the audio is very very quiet.  This includes the vimeo video file, a copy of the video on a flash drive, anything.  The audio is almost too low to hear anything.  But, like I said, it sounds great on my computer, which is a Lenovo laptop.  I exported the video using the 1080p 30fps preset. If anyone has any knowledg they can share on this issue, that would be great. 
    Another thing: I have made several other videos using the same sequence settings, export presets, and they are all fine on any computer.
    Thanks

    How many disk drives? What sizes? and how much DEFRAGMENTED space? What brand/model is the PC? You need to provide more information on your clips - their formats, what were they created on and how you got them into PRE.
    You really should install those Windows Updates.
    Here's a checklist of basics you should follow through with:
    Install all Windows Updates.
    Install latest version of Apple QuickTime (v7.6.9 at time of writing). Even if you don't use QuickTime, PRE relies heavily on it.
    Install most recent graphics and sound drivers from the manufacturers web sites.
    Install PRE9 v9.0.1 update.
    Delete BadDrivers.txt (in Windows 7 this is likely at C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Premiere Elements\9.0\BadDrivers.txt)
    Run Disk Cleanup.
    Run Defragmenter.
    Reboot your PC.
    Temporarily disable any anti-virus realtime scanning.
    And give us some information about your clips and hardware:
    Use the GSpot Codec Information Utility to analyse the file and post screen image.
    What project preset did you use?
    Where did the clip come from?
    How did you get it into PRE?
    Post back here with the necessary information described here: Got a Problem? How to Get Started

  • XF100 audio with Premiere Pro CC

    With Premiere Pro CS 5.5 and 6, my 2 stereo audio channels from my XF100 where imported as 2 differents stereo tracks on my timeline. Now with CC, I only have one stereo track, chanel 1 mono on the left and channel 2 mono on the right in my timeline. I use the Canon XF mpeg2 preset for my timeline as usual.
    Can I have my two distinct stereo channels?

    Yes I can do it with "modify" > "audio channels" in the contextual menu, but it won't help in the preference because the files are not a stereo media, they are just two seperate audio streams. So anyway, I can have it the way I want. I just don't like the new workflow because stereophony and channels shoud not be seen as the same thing. Thanks for your help!

  • Everything plays perfect (audio & video). Mute clips after exporting (sounds fine when not exported)

    Alright... this is the 1st time I use Adobe Premiere CS5.5, and I´m using the trial version.
    I hope the image I uploaded is clear, but if I click PLAY while I ´m using the program, everything plays absolutely perfect.
    Problem is when I export. If you can see there, there are like 7 audio bars there, I don´t know if that could be a problem, but I can´t seem to put all of them into a single track.
    The main audio files DO play in the exported movie, but many others do not...

  • No audio playback of MPEG-2 muxed program streams made with Compressor?

    Is anyone else experiencing this?
    Any fix? Audio plays in VLC so its not operator error..
    Upgraded to QT 7.6.6 (1632) and no longer No have audio playback of MPEG-2 muxed program streams made with Compressor?
    This machine played audio out of QT with these files prior to upgrade this afternoon.

    I've never run a component conflict test is there a tool for that or is this a command in terminal?
    There may still be some "tools" around to help with the process but you still have to run playback tests yourself and evaluate the results. The process is quite simple. You just need to "hide" one or more components, open the QT Player, and play a file to see if it is now working correctly. If it isn't, then continue "hiding" additional components. If the file does play correctly, then you have found a conflict and can start "unhiding" components to determine which one (or combination of components) is causing the problem by removing any "problem" components to an external location such as your desktop. Just remember to close the QT Player after each playback test. This is required (or at least used to be required) for the regeneration a new list of components available for use.
    I used the term "hide" above since I simply keep a "Disable" folder handy in my Library QT Component folder for just such tests. Placing a component or set of components into the folder temporarily "hides" it from the QT Player when it next generates a list of the components available for use. Specific strategies vary. I sometimes use use a binary tree approach to hide the components (I.e., "hide" half of the components instead of one at a time.) Unfortunately, I don't know exactly how this works with regard to QT X. So, I would likely run such tests in the QT 7 Player. So far, when everything is working correctly in QT 7 Player, QT X seems to be able to play the same file(s) in QT X via the 32-bit switching process.
