Premiere Pro CC: Drag from source monitor to timeline

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why this does not work. I can only drag video from the Source Monitor into my timeline. But when I try to drag audio, it just shows me a stop sign and no errors. So I can't really figure out why this is happening.
The workaround for this is to make the clip in the project window into it's own sequence, cut the clip and it's audio, and paste into the working timeline. However I don't think this is a good way of working and it's really annoying. Tried looking for results on how to fix this and only found ways of going around the problem instead of getting the problem resolved.

How funky, thanks Kevin. This solved the issue, I knew it had to be something extremely small that just kept bugging me.

  • Can't drag video from source monitor to timeline

    I have been working a few years with Premiere Pro (now CC) and this never happened to me before.
    I can't drag video from the source monitor to the timeline. What is happening? The sound can be dragged but there is a hand with a 'no sign' for the video??? How can I solve this problem without starting over again?

    Please dont double post!!!!

  • Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Using the Source Monitor and Program Monitor

    strJiveDescriptionhttp://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/source-monitor-program-monitor.html

    Even back in the days of printed manuals, there were often sections, that repeated, as they had application to a few slightly different topics. I always found that better (then), than just having a note to "go to _____ for info on this." Probably used a few extra trees, but one did not have to constantly flip back and forth. Now that we're talking 1's and 0's, I can see where a limited bit of repetition would enhance the flow of knowledge, and understanding, even when hyper-linked.
    Just my observations,

  • Question about going from source monitor into timeline prior to going into program monitor?

    In FCP you had to take a clip from the equivalent of the Source Monitor to the Program Monitor and either do an insert or overwite edit with the clip from there. I see that Premiere has insert and overwrite buttons built right into the Source monitor window. Are there any issues with doing it all from here and not dragging them into the Program Monitor first?
    Thanks.

    Typical NLE behavior is to go from the Source Monitor to the Timeline.  The Program Monitor shows whatever is in the timeline.  If FCP forced you to go from Source to Program, and then to timeline, that is very unusual behavior for an NLE since, again, the Program monitor is supposed to show you what's in the timeline.
    What PP now allows you to do is drag a clip from Source to Program, but this will simultaneously add the clip to the timeline because, as I said, the Program Monitor's purpose is to show you what's in the timeline.  With most any NLE out there, if it ain't in the timeline, it won't show up in the Program Monitor.  And if it shows up in the Program Monitor, then it must already be in the timeline.

  • Dropping audio when dragging clip from Source Panel to Timeline

    I have having issues with audio being dropped when dragged from the Source Panel to the Timeline. Audio is present in the Source Panel and plays great along with video, but when I drag the selected clip to the Timeline it drops the audio.

  • Glitch in Audio when switching from Source Monitor to timeine in PPro

    I am running a nMP 3ghz 8-core, 16gb ram, D700's, on osx 10.10. PProCC is 8.2.0 (65) Build. It is the most up to date version on CC. I also have a Focusrite Scarlette 2i2 for my Audio interface. This is where I'm having the issue. When I playback a clip in the source monitor, then go to play something in the timeline I get a weird 2 second delay with 2 pop's in my speakers, the lights on the XLR gain knobs on the focusrite audio interface flash twice in sync with the audio pops, then the timeline will play. And if I now go to play something in the source monitor coming from the timeline it does the same thing, 2 seconds, pops, lights then it plays. But if I stop and start the clip in either the source monitor or timeline without switching between, it plays fine. Only switching between the source monitor and the timeline. I have tried numerous things in the ASIO settings but nothing seems to get rid of this glitch and it drives me and my clients insane because it does it every single time I switch between the two. HELP!

    Cam, I have this exact same problem. I plan on sending out some emails to hopefully find a solution, but I thought I would check here quick. Did you ever find an answer to your question elsewhere?

  • Premiere Pro 6 refreshing capture device every time I change from source window to timeline.

    I have an external audio device/interface connected with a firewire. Premiere sees this as a DV/HDV capture device and everytime I flick from the source monitor to the timeline (umpteen times a minute) the audio device restarts causing a complete system freeze for 10 seconds. I can no longer edit with audio through my speakers because of this.
    I've tried changing the capture device in the preferences to None, but as soon as I go back to the preferences it has changed itself to DV/HDV.
    I'm using Premiere Pro 6.0.1 on a Mac OSX 10.6.8. The device is a PreSonus Firefox audio interface.

    Thanks Admiral Cook. Looking through your post, I played around with some settings and now my delay is only 2-3 seconds when flicking through panels. I set the audio hardware and mapping to System Default instead of my external firewire device.
    But still, a 2-3 second delay when switching back nad forth through panels? Really?

  • No more exporting clips from Source Monitor in Premiere CS6?

    In Premiere CS4 I used to double click a clip on timeline (to open it in Source Monitor), and then immediately hit File>Export Media. It would then automatically selelct this specific clip for export without the need to set In and Out points. In Premiere CS6 it doesn't seem to work, meaning that if I want to export individual clips from timeline, I need to create In and Out points for each export , which is quite time consuming comparing to CS4, especially when working with many clips. I already found 2 useful features, that were just eliminated in Premiere CS6, and I don't understand why to destry something that works?!
    Or is there another way to do it?

    Jim Simon wrote:
    CS6 works just like CS4 did on this one.
    Not in my case (I'm on Mac, maybe in Windows it's different?): in CS4 I double-click a clip in a timeline, it opens in the source monitor, and I click Export. I immediately get only this specific cut selected as a work area without any need to mark in/out, or to define work area. In CS6 just doesn't happen... Can you confirm that CS6 also does it and can you tell me your configuration and version?

  • Unable to paste clips from source monitor into the timeline with buttons

    hi,
    working with the newest version of premiere pro cc 2014.
    I'am unable to paste clips from the source monitor into the timeline by neither using the buttons below the source monitor nor hitting the shortcut "," .
    dragging the clip in the timeline still works... is there a hidden setting to enable this functions again or is it a bug?
    thanks in advance

    Thanks a lot!

  • Has anyone else experienced a glitch when making cuts? Many of my cuts slip a frame or two when moved from source monitor to sequence and it started with the latest update

    Once I updated to the latest version of Premiere 2014.2 I started experiencing a glitch when my cuts would slip a frame or two. At first it was randomly. Then I had footage I was using that was an .avi file that I converted to .m4v using vlc and now in my Premiere project, are having the greatest difficulty keeping my original cut that I create in my source monitor. When I bring it into my timeline, the new frames are added. When I double click the clip into my source monitor, I see that my original cuts remain, not shifted. Looking back in my timeline, unwanted frames are still there. I have to bring it into my source monitor to guess where the right frame would be to compensate for this. It happens more often with the converted files but still happens to .mp4s as well. I am using a Mac Pro 15-in from Early 2011. Thanks for the advice in advance!

    I downloaded and installed the latest iTunes 11.2.1 (1) update yesterday. It appears to have corrected this issue to a large extent: plugging in an iThing to sync no longer seems to cause explosive growth in memory footprint. leaks reports a much slower growth in dead memory:
    leaks -nocontext -nostacks iTunes | grep total
    Process 27307: 353 leaks for 726488 total leaked bytes.
    20 minutes later:
    leaks -nocontext -nostacks iTunes | grep total
    Process 27307: 364 leaks for 1256056 total leaked bytes.
    20 minutes later, after DLing updated apps and doing another sync:
    leaks -nocontext -nostacks iTunes | grep total
    Process 27307: 364 leaks for 1256056 total leaked bytes.
    Memory allocation started at 70Mb, grew to 200Mb, and appears to have stabilized there.
    I'm going to keep an eye on it overnight, but it looks as if this may not be a complete system killer as it was before, at least in my case. In any case, I can highly recommend this latest iTunes update for anyone else experiencing this specific issue. Updating bug 16772016 with this new information.

  • Go To Next or Previous Edit from Source Monitor

    Question was asked on another Forum and I feel it would make a great feature request for added editing efficiency in Premiere Pro.
    There is currently no way to directly "Go To"  Next or Previous Edit ( or Start / End) while in the Source Monitor.
    If one wants to Set In and Out points in the Source Monitor for Insert or Overlay, then discovers the CTI is not in position in the timeline...One must bounce out of  Source to Timeline to  set the point and then return to Source to apply it.
    It would be really cool and efficient to be able to use  the   same  "Go To" Next or Previous Edit short cut Keys from the Timeline (Sequence) in the Source Monitor. 
    Arrow Up / Arrow Down  or Shift- Arrow Up /  Shift-Arrow Down ( as well as  Home/End and  Pg Up / Pg Dn)
    (Maybe with additional  Modifier but preferably the same)
    Currently I use Shortcut keys to focus to Source , Program and Timeline..but eliminating that  for a more  direct way ..would be a definite advantage in speed and logic.

    Make sure theres a check mark beside the songs. If there check and still not going to the next song try reinstalling or updating iTunes

  • Why does Premiere Pro CS5 process audio source before exporting clip in AME CS5?

    Hello everyone, my first post here. I am currently trying out the trial CS5 Master Collection on my MacBook Pro. I've been using Premiere Pro CS5 to put together family videos. I select a certain portion of a sequence and queue it for export in Media Encoder CS5 in the format H.264 for iPod with video and audio.
    Now in AME I have a queue list of about 5 clips from the sequence. But when I hit the Start Queue button, the bottom left of the progress bar states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]"  for all 5 clips from the sequence then creates the first output file.
    Then it moves to encode the second and again states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]"  for all 5 clips of mt sequence then spits out only the second output file.
    This continues for the remaining 3 output files. The total sequence length is ~32 minutes with transitions and it takes about 35 minutes to export which is all consumed by the process audio source of the 5 clips in my sequence for 5 separate times.
    Is there a certain reason why Media Encoder or Premiere Pro does this process of audio source? Is this process necessary or needed? I experimented with choosing different output formats but the results are the same. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Now that's pretty good follow-up to your first post, and quickly too! Nice detective work.
    As you have found, there is basically a Render/Replace operation going on in PrPro, to get the material in the correct form for AME.
    Thank you for reporting, as it saved me, and others, from basically saying what you said.
    Good luck, and sorry that you beat us to the punch.

  • Premiere Pro CS4 - Problem with the monitor program.

    Hi. I'm not able solving problems with the monitor using PremiereProCS4. When I drag a photo (also only one photo) in the timeline and play it in the monitor program, vision in the monitor program doesn't run:black monitor or a little part of the photo appear... sometimes distort colours. Asus P5QPRO, Intel 9550 and Sparkle Nvidia GeForce 9800 GTX+ 1024 DDR3; last gpu driver and directX are installed. Different configuration of stratch disks were tested. Where am I wrong?

    Dear Bill,
    thanks for your answer and your article. I tried with your NTSC 4:3 720x480 PAR 0.9 and, "magically", no more problem!!! I used the script pocedure in Photoshop CS4 to resize my images. Now, before starting my workflow and hoping not to overuse your patience, I would like to indicate you my equipment and my target: I use a Canon Eos 7D (generally for still images, 90% are vertical, and just some videos) and I use Premiere Pro CS4 to burn a dvd (normal, 4.7 Gb or double side, more than 8 Gb) with a 16.9 lcd tv (I'm Italian); my camera save as .jpg and .raw (but why use heavy .raw files if I've to redute to 720x480?!??).
    So, according to your "everyone wants the highest quality that they can obtain when doing theri videos..." and "your video project may vary, so you will need to plug in the dimensions for YOUR video project in that case", I've a question: which is the best for me?
    And then:
    1 - Premiere Pro CS4 havn't a batch or a script procedure for still image like PS (only for videos)!?!
    2 - Premiere does'nt allow you to import images like 4.181 Kb (a too large dimension file error appears)!
    3 - In the timeline of Premiere, after you dragged images, you can select them and right click to perform "resize to frame size": it seems to run good without problem, but what appen to the photo? Which is it's pixel?
    4 - In the general preferences of Premiere you can to optimize rendering for "memory" or not: which is the best for you?
    5 - I attached file with a screen of something strange in Premiere: dragging an image (the first of the project) in the timeline, the timeline appears distort (you can see the part in the yellow square): then, when I render the project and play in the monitor program, it becames normal.
    Thanks!

  • No Audio from Source Monitor

    For some reason or another, the audio from the source monitor hasn't followed the video into my timeline. I didnt select to only drag the video into the time line, rather i hit "," and yet all that showed up is the video.
    Worst yet, is that i've been trimming through tons of footage and have apparently done this to over 200+ clips.
    I was told to reveal the clips in the project and then just drag them back into the timeline, over the old video clips.
    Is there any way to select multiple clips, or even all of them, and be able to get the audio from each one back into my timeline?

    Hi Loadedboards,
    I think I'm understanding what you wish to do. Sorry, but there's no easy way to do this en masse. I would Match Frame at the edit point, then Overwrite the clip with audio into place.
    Thanks,
    Kevin
