Plugins result in no audio

I'm running the latest version of GB, and when I install a plugin, and use it, after using the plugin for about five to ten seconds the sound for it will completely stop working. The only way to get sound in BG back is to change instruments, then If i go back to the plugin, it'll just happen again. No errors or anything..
Thanks,
James

it's a freewear plugin called "buzZer2". it's featuers are:
subtractive synthesis.
2 morphable sine, triangle, sawtooth , square and noise VCO's.
2 independent high-, low-, band-, peak- and formant-filter.
4 LFO's with synchronization to host tempo.
3 ADSR's
poly-, unisono and legato-mode.
wave shaping distortion.
modulated spatial effect.
random generation of sounds.
midi learn.
(I don't have a Midi keyboard or anything.)

Firefox plugin breaks after Bluetooth audio switching

Tracked down a bug to the FF flash plugin: On XP sp2 using FF
2.0.0.12 and Flash 9.0.47.0 (rolled back from the 9.0.115.0
disaster) after starting then stopping a Bluetooth audio session
(a2dp), Flash no longer plays audio/video. All the usual sites stop
working (youtube, cnn video, imeem, etc) I can get it to start
working again only by restarting Firefox.
Background info: when using Bluetooth headphones, XP's audio
output is routed to the Bluetooth receiver (in my case, by a
Broadcomm bluetooth stack) After ending the session, the audio is
routed back (eg to the desktop speakers). Flash handles being
routed to the receiver, but not being routed back.
I know it's not FF itself, b/c other FF multimedia plugins
handle the transitions fine (eg. quicktime). I know it's specific
to the FF version, b/c on IE, the flash plugin works fine after
Bluetooth switches.
Anyone have any similar problems? Restarting FF doesn't sound
like a problem, but with many tabs open, it takes forever.
I'll try sending this in to Adobe, but after seeing their
(non)response to the buggy as fcuk 9.0.115.0 player, I doubt they
even test their FF version, let alone follow up on bug
reports.

*bump. Any ideas anyone?

SMPTE DTV audio preset results in no audio

I'm trying to export an indie movie cut in FCP X as a QT movie with 8 channels of audio, per Apple's own iTunes spec, to be sold on iTunes.
FCP X only has 5.1 as an option, but I can send it to Compressor.
Compressor has the exact preset I need, SMPTE DTV (L R C LFE Ls Rs Lt Rt). When I use this audio preset, the resulting Quicktime movie has no audio at all.
Anyone have any experience with this?
Thank you!
Scot

Hi Hafken,
Sounds like I am getting nailed by a software glitch. I keep seeing the problem randomly through the day today. Sometime everything works perfectly when I break apart the clip items, other times the sound quits playing on the newly broken apart clip, that is, until I recombine the clip then the audio is fine again. Other clips in the same timeline, that are already broken apart work just fine.
New addition to the story, sometimes the clips are labeled al, a2, a3, a4. Other times they are labeled as mono1, mono2, mono3, and mono4. Maybe this is an indicator that I placed the clip in the timeline, then broke it apart.... rather than viewing the clip in the inspector (before adding to the timeline) and turning off the mono tracks 3 and 4.
Keeping in mind that they are all clips from the same camera (hvx-200), recorded at the same time, batch imported into FCP at the same time, and side by side in the same timeline.
Another interesting addition is that some of the clips now list their tracks in reverse order.... a4 (at the top), a3, a2, a1 (at the bottom).

Export Region As Audio File results in truncated audio file

When I use the Export -> Region As Audio File option, the resulting file does not sound identical to the region. Specifically, the first 100 milliseconds or so are not in the resulting audio file.
Does anyone have the same problem? Does anyone have a workaround?
I'm using this feature to automate the mastering of hundreds of short regions for a CD-ROM title. So while theoretically I could add a little silence to all regions, this is not really practical, unfortunately.
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Yes, that was exactly it, the inserted plug-in was to blame. I was using Logic's Adaptive Limiter. Now I'm using the Limiter, and the problem no longer occurs. I'm still somewhat curious if there is a simple workaround (I tried a region delay, but it has no effect on the Export Region feature, apparently), but at least now I know what's going on.
Thanks for the responses!

Bootcamp 3.1 update results in no audio output device installed

After installing the bootcamp 3.1 update instead of getting improved/fixed audio I currently do not have any audio in windows vista 64 bit home premium. Which is to say the least quite annoying. Now i do know i have the cirrus logic audio chipset which was detected correctly in BC 3.0 however the microphone was not working. Currently no sound is working at all.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Stefan

I think this is the driver you'll need. Others have reported that their Cirrus Audio functionality was restored with it.

Windows XP and 7 x86 users have also had success with this driver:

Copy-pasting results in no audio

If I copy-paste an edited sequence from a previously saved timeline to a new one all is well at first glance.
However when I save and close Premiere and then re-open, the clips are there but the sound isn't. What could cause this?

Sorry, I should have been clearer. That is what I''m doing - saving wmp formats etc. as a .mov (I have Flip4Mac installed). However, when viewing the information of the movie within Quicktime, it says that the video is still windows media video.
Still, the problem I'm having is that there is no audio (neither is it registered in the information panel qithin Quicktime). Could it be that the .mov is referencing the audio as opposed to embedding it in the video? And if so, how do I get it to embed the audio? Do I have to use iMovie?
Thanks

Bypassing any UAD plugin results in annoying delay

I have an easily reproducible situation here: the "Release DSP Resources on AudioUnit Bypass" feature does not seem to be working with Logic 7.2.3. In my test project, any UA plugin I add and then try to bypass brings the usage meter to zero. Additionally, this introduces annoying delays in playback for a few moments. The "Live Mode" setting does not seem to make a difference, and this happens with all UA plugins.
Any other UAD-1 users out there seeing this? I've tried just about everything I can think of: changed buffer sizes, tried different settings for Process Buffer Range, tried playback pre-roll. I'm out of ideas.
BTW, the workaround is to load the panel for the plugin and use it's power or "in/out" switch to turn it off. That seems to work fine during playback but is rather inconvenient.
Dual 2.5GHz PowerMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

This is much more than a second. If I have an insert plugin on the snare track and bypass it, it's clearly way behind the overhead tracks for several seconds. It even does this when I re-enable the plugin.
Believe me, I adore the UAD plugins and I wouldn't think of trading them for anything, but I'd still like to know what causes this because it doesn't happen in Cubase 4. Logic doesn't seem to be respecting that checkbox I mentioned in the UAD software, so the problem might be on their end, but regardless - it should not be happening.

24-Bit, 96kHz Microsoft PCM WAVs result in no audio in any media player

Hi guys,
I have some downmixes saved by other progarms as 24-Bit 96kHz Stereo WAV files that play fine in all media players. However, when I save these or any other upconverted 16-bit files in Audition 3.0 as "Microsoft PCM WAV" (24-Bit, 96kHz, Stereo), they do not play in any of my media players. The file appears to be playing but there is no sound. The only differences I can see in the file attributes are that there is a new "Audio Format" attribute whose value is "PCM" - this attribute does not exist on the other (working) files. However, if I save the file as a "32-Bit float" Microsoft PCM WAV in Audition, they play fine! Here is an image to explain:
http://www.aotplaza.com/Files/Audition%20Problem.PNG
I would think that it is a codec problem but I didn't think WAV files required third party codecs in Windows XP? Any ideas?

Never mind, I realised that the problem lies in the WAV format used. According to some websites I have visited, high resolution and/or surround sound WAV files can only be played back natively if they are in WAVE EXTENSIBLE format and the files I was saving were in PCM format. I solved this by setting ffdshow to handle all WAV files using DirectShow instead and the files now play back fine. :)
Out of curiosity, I see no WAVEX save format in Audition although it exists in Audacity (an open source audio editor) - is there a way to save WAV files in this format?

"Print to Video" or Manual Export to Tape Results in Mono Audio

DVD encoding using transcode results in out-of-sync audio

I am trying to encode my DVDs for easy viewing on my computer. I am trying to do this with transcode, but I am having a few problems.
Firstly, I use lsdvd and tccat to find and rip the desired content in raw form from the DVD to a VOB file. Once I have this raw data, I then encode the file to an AVI, using a command like:
transcode -i <name>.vob -N 0x2000 -w 1000 --nice 10 -F mpeg4 -y ffmpeg,raw -o <name>.avi"
Which compresses the video to mpeg4 with ffmpeg and copies the audio from the original as-is into the AVI file. However, when I watch the resulting movie, the audio runs slightly ahead of the video, so people's lips continue to move after they've finished speaking, just like in a badly-dubbed kung-fu flick!
Another problem I've noticed (perhaps related?) is that despite the fact that the audio stream ought to be a bit-for-bit copy of the original, the bitrate is written as 128kb/s instead of 192kb/s like it should be. If the argument -b 192 is given then it fixes this problem, but the first problem is still present so it's not the cause of that.
Encoding in mencoder using exactly the same technique works fine, but I hate mencoder and mplayer because they are both brain-dead and buggy. Mencoder won't detect half of the stuff it should, e.g. the aspect ratio, forcing me to look at every DVD I encode, read the aspect ratio and set it manually, which is just not on. I need to use transcode anyway to rip the DVD image, since mencoder claims that it can't acutally read the DVD half the time when everything else can, so if I can just get past this stupid problem then I will be happy.
So, if anyone can help me figure out the problem here I'd be very grateful

Argh! I never even noticed that option, despite having read the man page about 7 million times. Acidrip is not so great IMO, I think it uses MEncoder, so it suffers from the same problems I highlighted earlier, plus it is very crude and buggy. IIRC it also seems to be biased towards single-pass encoding, which is stupid because for a little more time you can get better quality with multi-pass as long as you're happy with running an encoding process in the background for a few hours (not such a big deal as long as you nice it down to a low priority)

DVCPROHD Audio Plugin Failure

I couldn't find a place where this really fit—it's an audio plugin question, but I don't use the Pro Software—so I put it in the general OSX category; feel free to move it.
My issue is with the DVC PRO HD Audio plugin (/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin). I am using a simple afplay command to try and add sounds on startup/login, but I note the following error when using the command through terminal:

For some reason the audio plug in is not loading correctly, and i can't figure out why. To my knowledge I have never messed with the audio plugins on my computer. Kicker: the command worked the first time I used it, but has failed in subsequent uses. Not sure if restart fixes the issue. Any ideas?

I have this problem happening on a fresh OS X 10.6.5 Install + Logic Studio 9. The console log is filling up with it like crazy. I guess I will remove it from the system for now, but I sure would like to know what it is and what affects the removal of it may have.
I get the same errors as everyone else, and my plug shows as Universal with a version number of 1.3.2.

Audio out of sync with elemental plugin, and slower than my i7!!!

Maaannn!!
I just got a PNY nvidia quadro 1800 with elemental accellerator plugin. I just transcoded 2 hours of HDV straight from premiere 4 with Adobe Media Encoder using the Elemental codec and the audio is out of sync. It plays out of sync on the Blu Ray disk, and in Encore4. The audio is perfectly synced in Premiere. I just did another project a week ago without the Elemental, using the default Main Concept encoder and the audio is perfect. I am pretty sure I have the latest version of the Elemental Accellerator because there is a button to check for updates and it says there are no updates available. Does anybody know what is wrong here?.
The transitions are getting messed up. I can see a small section with the audio synced, then the video repeats after a second throwing them out of sync. I also suspect that the Elemental accelerator does not process any faster than the default h.264 for Blu Ray encoder. I hope I did not waste my money on this nvidia quadro 1800..
Whoooaa! I just woke up and checked the transcoding time.. To transcode approximately 2 hours of HDV it took 6:35 (hr:mm) with the elemental accellerator and it took 5:09 with my i7 920 chip!! Was that nvidia card a waste of money, or what?!!! Between the slower speed and the audio out of sync, I'd say I made a BIG misteak.. Does anybody want to buy a PNY nvidia quadro 1800? it'll be on ebay very soon..
Win7 64bit, Master Collection 4, i7 2.66 Ghz, Kingston Triple Channel DDR3 1600Mhz 6Gb, ASUS P6T, PNY nvidia quadro 1800.....

Thanks Neil,
I don't think my audio interface has anything to do with it.. I am using Adobe Media Encoder for the export and the Audio interface's latency has nothing to do with it.. I see the source of the problem but not the solution.. The Elemental plugin is not working properly with the transitions in Premiere. The transitions are visibly botched and the sound is in sync for a partial second of each clip, then the video skips backward as the sound keeps playing. This happens on every clip after the transition.
Whatever you were talking about might have to do with some kind of real time export, but to where? I think Premiere might have some auto plugin delay compensation for audio tracks.. I dont think you even read my post.. My MOTU 896 Mk3 audio interface has a 128 sample buffer leaving a few milliseconds of latency, and I can set it as low as 64.. This still has nothing to do with my problem.. Thanks for your input..
I am curious to know what you thought I was capturing elemental streams and audio from my interface in real time to.. I was unaware of anything that works like that in this type of editing..
The bottom line is that my i7 chip gets the job done much faster than the quadro 1800, and that's a shame that I spent the money on the 1800.. On top of that it doesn't even work properly!!

Audio Plugin spook

Can anyone tell me what the gist of this error message from Console means? I get it often, and for a variety of actions. I am wondering if it relates to certain anomalies I need to iron out in my system. Any information welcome. Sorry. Tangled with Disk Warrior 4 recently - big mistake

If you choose the option to "Scan for plug-ins" making sure the "Rescan existing plug-ins" box is ticked, do you not "lose" all those extras listed?
I've not needed to do this recently but I'm sure that's the method I used some weeks ago to remove from the listing some items that were no longer present.

Reverse audio plugin question

hello,
does anybody know if there's a plugin that can reverse audio as you play it live in realtime available for LE7? I used to use the Reversinator plugin in Ableton but that's a VST. Also Ableton doesn't allow you to use plugins when it is being used a slave.
I'm aware of the reverse audio function, but this is not what i'm after.
thanks a lot.

I am not sure such a thing could actually exist. I do know some guitar effects pedals have something like it, but essentially, unless it knew everything you were going to play before you played it, how could it reverse it?
I am guessing you mean to only reverse each note instead of the whole phrase.
I think a work-around might be to strip silence between transients, then reverse each one.

Does re-saving mp3 files result in audio degradation?

Any Audio Gurus out there?
Does opening an mp3 audio file, editing it, then re-saving,
compress it more, resulting in additional audio degradation?
It is my understanding that opening jpeg files, editing them,
and then saving them results in additional image degradation.
Do mp3 files react the same way as jpeg files (each time you
save them they degrade more)?

Hey All,
Thanks for looking into this. The good news is I have answered my own question. The bad news is the answer is "HAD TO WAIT FOR 7.3!!!!!"
Yes QuickTime has solved this bug with the newest version. Also if anyone has created QuickTime files in h.264 (using QuickTime 7.2) and needed to re-save for any reason, you can now re-save these files again in 7.3 and the browser player's audio level will default to the highest setting as it should.
Again thank you to everyone who spent anytime searching an answer to this bug.
