Premiere Pro Mac - VST & Audio Unit Support - Something is wrong....

I run PPRO on Mac Lion.
I AM aware of the fact that PPRO is a 64 bit application.
Adobe does NOT seem to be aware of the fact that most audio plugs are 32 bit.
Reason for this is that there is very little need for a simple Compressor or EQ to be able to address more than 2GB of RAM ;-)
So most professional DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) which are 64 bit IMPLEMENTS a bridge that allows the app to use 32 bit Audio Effects.
I own and operate a recording studio and beta test for a lot of VST/AudioUnit vendors. None of them (the important ones) are planning 64 bit, anytime soon.
So either I am missing the obvios and I CAN use 32 bit VST/Audio Units in PPRO on Mac ---- Or adobe needs to address this ASAP.
If not, well anyone relying on audio effects will have to NOT edit his audio in PPRO ????
I hope I am missing the totally obvious, I mean, ALL other NLEs have GREAT solutions for Audio Effects - In PPRO I am confined to the adobe audio effects which are not really on par with professional audio plugs.
Any advise would be nice....

This is from page 326 of the PrCS5 user guide:
Premiere Pro supports the Steinberg VST (Virtual Studio Technology) audio plug-in format so that you can add VST audio effects from third-party vendors. Premiere Pro includes VST plug-in effects that are available in both the Audio Mixer and the Effect Controls panel. Track-based VST plug-ins may provide additional controls. Apply VST effects the same way you apply other audio effects to tracks or clips.In the Effects And Sends panels of the Audio Mixer, VST effects appear in the Effect Selection menus. In the Effects panel, they appear in the Audio Effects bin so you can apply them to individual clips. In most cases, VST effects appear in the Audio Effects bin and track type that corresponds to the number of channels the effect supports. For example, stereo VST effects appear in the Audio Mixer track effect menus for stereo tracks only, and in the Stereo bin in the Audio Effects bin in the Effects panel. After you apply any VST effect, you can open a window with all of its controls. You can leave multiple VST editor windows open as long as you want, such as when automating effects, but Premiere Pro closes all VST editor windows when you close the project.If you previously installed a VST-compatible application other than Premiere Pro, Premiere Pro finds VST effects in the VST folder that already exists. Inside the Plug-ins folder of the Premiere Pro application folder, there is also a VSTPlugins folder with plug-ins that are used only by Premiere Pro.
However, I have never gotten my VST effects to even show up in Pr Mac. They do work in Au (also FCP, STP and MOTU DP), so I conclude it's a bug, or an undocumented and/or unavowed disimplementation.
I wish they did work, because I like to us PSP Vintage Warmer on VO tracks. I've learned to get by with the Multiband Compressor, or send to Audition.

Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Editing audio in a Timeline panel

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/editing-audio-timeline-panel.html

Or, go into the audio units format of the timeline and manually adjust the audio portion of the cut to hit as close to a zero crossing as possible. Jim's way is the easiest, and sufficient for most people, but if you need perfect cuts and not a quick fade, it is possible to do it in Premiere Pro.

Sending transcoded clip to Premiere Pro with Mono audio

Hi there,
I noted that others had asked this question around August 2013 but haven't seen any progress made on this issue, which is that we prefer to edit in Premiere pro with mono audio tracks, but we are unable to make transcoded material come over from Prelude with mono audio.
We need to have total control over our audio tracks and for us in a News/ENG environment that also means fast turnaround production. So we want to choose the part of the XDCAM clip that we want in Prelude, send it to Premiere Pro and put the interview grab (for example) down on track 1 of the Timeline with only talent mike audio (which was recorded on the camera's channel 1) and not have to pan it or worry about doing much else to it. Then we cut the rest of the overlay with sound effects that were recorded on channel 2 going straight to track 2 on the timeline. When we transmit it to head office we send them two discrete channels of audio: talent/VO on Track 1 and effects on Track 2.
We only have a problem when Transcoding is involved. With the audio prefs in PrPro set to "Mono" everything else is fine, its just that when Prelude transcodes a video it makes the audio a hassle for us, because it can only come over to PrPro as a stereo audio track.
Adobe, is there ever going to be the ability to just make a Preference in Prelude to send the clips with Mono audio, as there is in Premiere Pro??
Or has anyone figured this out and I am just missing something?

In Adobe Media Encoder, set up a new preset that has the video and audio settings you want to have your source footage transcoded to:
Then name and save that preset. The next time you launch Prelude, the preset will be an option for you to select to use for transcoding your material.

Premiere Pro CS5 skipping audio error

Anyone come across this:
When trying to edit an AIFF audio file in the Premiere Pro timeline, the audio skips when playing back,
meaning that after a few seconds it just skips several seconds and starts playing a different part further on in the same AIFF...
The indicator bar does not visually "skip": just moves on steady as it should.
Related to this:
I have a project that was converted from After Effects CS4 to CS5, that shows the following strange behaviour in CS5:
The comps contain layers that consist of AIFF audio files. When doing an audio preview (.) or a RAM preview, the audio does not play the part of the AIFF file that, according to the time-code, it should play. It starts where it should, but then suddenly it skips a few seconds to another part of the AIFF. All that while the red indicator bar suggests it is still playing lineair as it should (the red line does not "skip" to another point.
This leaves me with an unworkable situation, as it is quite unpredictable which part of the audio will play right...
As far as i can tell this behaviour only happens with a converted project (CS4 > CS5) in After Effects.
But when I started a new project in Premiere Pro I got the same skipping audio with a totally new project!
Converted back to CS4 for now.

Mark,
Your observations are probably spot on. I cannot only comment through PrPro 2.0, so changes could certainly have occurred. I do know that CS4 changed a lot, regarding Audio.
In my CS2 Production Studio version, I have had up to 22 Timelines/Sequences and most have had from 6 to 24 Audio Tracks, with a DD 5.1 SS Master Track. I have had zero issues with any Audio dropouts. Now, I have had issues with Playback stopping and at totally random spots, and this has happened with very simple to very complex Sequences, and different spots. Sometimes, this has happened with a fresh boot and Project load, but also after many hours of editing. These halts come and go. I've had them happen a dozen times in a row, only to then disappear in that editing session. I've had sessions that lasted for days, with not one, only to fire up the program, and get 3 halts in a row. That has been my only, even moderately similar experience.
Wish I could comment on later versions, but I cannot.
Thanks for your observations and for reporting,
Hunt

Premiere Pro Only Playing audio when i press play. And it says "Media Offline" with a big red screen. What do i do?

Premiere Pro Only Playing audio when i press play. And it says "Media Offline" with a big red screen. What do i do?

And When i double click the video files in the editing program, another window pops up named: Source:Sequence 01. But the window Program:Sequence 01 Has a Red screen on it! But the file clearly works so i have no idea what to do.

Where dose Logic/Mac Pro store its audio units?

Hello,
dose anyone know wich folder AU (audio units) are stored on a Mac Pro? they are usually in Library>Audio>Plug-ins>Components. but there is nothing in that folder and i am trying to get one of my plugins (Atmosphere Intel Mac Wrapper) to find its AU, its in that folder but the program is not finding it. so i thought if there was a diferent folder that AUs are stored it might find it there.
thanks!
Luke.

are you looking at a users library? try the system drive... select hard disc then library e.t.c.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction

I have a Macbook Pro and a Mac Pro. They are both running Premiere Pro CS6 v6.0.2. On my Macbook Pro, I started a project using AVCHD media in the form of .mts files. I believe these files have Dolby Digital Audio. I have project managed all of the files onto my external harddrive for editing on my Mac Pro; however, as I open the project file I recieve an error message "This installation does not have a license to decode Dolby Digital audio". If I then open a different project and check the error log, I see the error "Dolby Audio Decode Licensing Restriction on file..."
Sometimes when opening the project I also get an error "There is no Preset for this sequence..." or something similar. I cannot rememeber exactly.
I have the exact same plugins on both my Mac Pro and Macbook Pro. They are running the same version and they are both activated on my Creative Cloud membership. Any thoughts on why I can't open the project on my Mac Pro?

In short after reading LOTS of people complaining like you have, like I have like probably about 1 million people who own AVCHD cameras have that the most used format to shoot on for home /semi pro users is AVCHD and Premiere... get ready for this... take a deep breath.... DOESNT SUPPORT ITS AUDIO FILES. Its apparently licensed by DOLBY and you ahve to contact and minktonka company and pay.... really sit down first... take another deep breath... they want $300 for the plugin to make it work.
So Adobe have shafted.... is that a polite enough word... its customers who just want to play their files - not even encode the project to dolby digital - just play and edit their stuff. No even though you own that camera which only lets you shoot in that format and even though you are stuck wanting Premiere, adobe thinks that for the large monthly sum the world can go sit on its finger before they will sort this out.
Charming huh.
Adobe are you listening..... hello Adobe... have you gone mad Adobe... hello. Earth calling Adobe.
As someone pointed out you can play these files on quicktime, media player... so seems apple and microsoft PAY THEIR LICENCES ON BEHALF OF THE USERS OF THEIR PRODUCTS. Adobe must either be skinflints or maybe a nephew of theirs owns Minkytonkatoy firm who are selling that annoying plugin. Ever heard of download sites... cough cough.

How to use .MKV and .ISO with Premiere Pro? They are not supported.

Hi all. My brother in-law sent us two .mkv videos and a DVD .iso he wants me to use in a video I am cutting for him. The only trouble is, I've no idea how to get them into a format PremPro can handle.
I've searched and the only solutions I have found are infinitely complicated for me. Avisynth is certainly beyond me.
Anyone know of a way to convert .mkv (info lists 942x720 H.264 4:2:0 YUV MPEG4 AVC) into something useable?
Same question for an ISO file.
Thanks much
By the way, this is not for anything 'important' nor am I getting paid, so I have no budget tp purchase software. I am sure there must be a free solution.
I tried this trial version software...
http://www.moyea.com/import-flv/
But it would NOT install. It just errored in a loop and was unable to find or understand I have CS5 PremPro.

Can anyone explain how to use VLC to transcode? The settings are endless and NONE look correct. Everything is about coverting and shrinking and that is not what I want.
I have looked into this so many times and cannot find how to do it. I know it must be simple, but clearly I am blind.
What I need is to take whatever is inside that stupid MKV wrapper and extract it. Transcode it. I have been trying for A YEAR now and have never been able to find a solution.
I'm on a PC and unfortunately, there are free solutions for a MAC. But that won't help me.
EDIT: One option I see is tsMuxer! But which setting for Output? I can choose...
TS muxing... or M2TS musing... or Blu-ray disk... or AVCHD disk... or DEMUX
To explain more, I have a Blu-Ray I purchased and want to add the audio from my laserdisc, since the remixed audio on the disc sucks (hard). I'll also add English subtitles. To be clear, this work is for ME for my own personal use.
Here is a screen grab from tsMuxer. Which to choose? I will place the audio and video in Premiere Pro. Sync the old Laserdisc audio up and then EXPORT to Adobe Encore to burn a new BD.

Premiere Pro CC 2014 - audio frame repeating while scrubbing

In 2014 and CC, I often run into an issue where an audio frame will repeat while scrubbing. It stops when I hit play or move the cursor to another part of the timeline. Obviously, this makes audio editing a nightmare. I've checked all the settings and I'm at a complete loss. I've unchecked "maintain pitch while shuttling", but the problem persists. Is there something I'm missing?
I've searched the forum, but haven't found any answers. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Premiere Pro CC 2014 (8.0.1)
Mac OSX 10.9.5
2 x 2.4 Quad-Core Intel Xeon
24 GB 1066 MHz DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB
KONA LHe+ (5/14/13 firmware)
ProRes LT (.mov)
No third party codecs

Apparently this only happens when holding down the next or previous frame keys. Individual clicks don't seem to cause the repeated frame.

Premiere Pro CS4 Dynamics Audio Effect Problem?

Has anyone experienced problems with the Dynamics Filter in PP?
For some reason the audio clip that the effect is applied to suddenly quits working at a point in the clip where there is a sudden peak.
If this sounds familiar to anyone I can provide more detailed info about hardware/etc. if necessary.

The solution is very simple,:
This update resolves the question.
This update install modification in dynalic link to support adobe autition3 instead of soundbooth.
This updaye , also adds support for AAF import/export, Apple Final Cut Pro XML project import, and OMF export, along with
numerous other stability and quality improvements. The update is recommended for all Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 users.
An important detail is that this feature only works in Windows. Sorry ´bout the poor MAC software.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4088
The home page of all updates for Premiere Pro CS4 is here :
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=98&platform=Windows
Reinstalling all the apllication and if the aplication is standard CS4 (4.0) this acti0on will not resolve the issue.
My recomendation is to install update 4.0.1 and 4.1.0
Others like 420, 421 is apllicable only if demand use of large avc intra, red format and p2 with h264 and other improvments

Premiere Pro CC weird Audio Squelches

I am cutting my first long project in Premiere Pro CC since switching from FCP.
When I have more than 9 tracks of audio, sometimes as I am scrubbing the sequence a very loud SQUELCH comes out of the speakers. I am using big pro speakers so it is pretty loud. The other day the software froze and quit on its on and right before it shut down, I swear the sound of a goat or sheep came out of the speakers. You know like BAAAAAAAA.
Any ideas?
Premiere Pro CC 8.2.0 (65) build
Mac Pro Quad Core Mid 2012
OS 10.9.4

Ok so I did nothing and now it's working fine....I guess I just needed to wait for it to load a bit.....
I would still appreciate some feedback on how to avoid this issue.
Thank you.

In Premiere Pro 2014 imported audio skips and is out of sync - version 7.2.2 was ok

I have been importing AVCHD Content in to Premiere Pro 7.2.2 with no issues. Now that I have upgraded to Premiere Pro 2014, importing that same AVCHD footage causes the audio to skip and finish before the video causing it to be out of sync. I compared preferences between the 2 versions and all settings seem to be the same. This is something clearly different between these two versions of Premiere Pro. Anyone else have this issue?

Premiere Pro CS3 -"Recording audio is not possible"?

I am reinstalling Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 on a new computer but get the message "The currently installed soundcard driver does not support DirectSound Input. Recording audio is not possible". I have noted comments on similar sound problems elsewhere but have not seen anything that seems to solve this problem. Is the problem related to the change in windows environments from Vista to Windows 7 (on Dell i7 Alienware) or do I need to buy another Sound Card or is it Premiere Pro CS3 where the problem lies? With thanks, eirrom.

Yes, quite likely a compatibility issue. CS3 used an older compatibility model, which long has been surpassed by newer versions of DX. However, it still should be backward compatible, so any issues you may have may depend on requiriung a specific driver, installing the full legacy load of DirectX or as a minor, changing some permissions on teh system to allow loading of unsigned legacy drivers and/or compatibility modes. It's a more complex problem than just flipping a switch eitrher way. Check your device manager and then work your way through...
