Problem editing audio timings

Help !!!
While editing audio timings the file size increases.....often
doubling in size for not apparent reason

Hi Deeb07,
First, be sure this is actually a problem for you. If it is
just the "idea" that the file is larger that bothers you, try to
ignore it. But if it is affecting your machine's performance while
working with (editing) the project, then it is an issue that needs
to be corrected, so read on ...
Captivate creates and maintains two file-types for each audio
clip. One is a WAV file for editing purposes, and the other is a
MP3 (created from the WAV) which is used in the published output.
When you edit the audio, the newly changed WAV file is probably
added to your library, creating the larger working file - it should
not affect your output SWF file.
If file-size is excessive after completing your changes -
repeat, after completing your changes - you can usually affect a
huge decrease in file size by the following actions.
1) Use FILE > SAVE AS to create a copy, to protect the
original
2) On the new copy, go to AUDIO > ADVANCED AUDIO
3) Select all audio files on your slides (CTRL + A is the
shortcut)
4) Export all to an empty folder - be sure to include both
file-types
5) With ALL audio still selected, use the "DELETE" icon to
delete all
*Note: First, make a note of which audio file goes with each
slide
6) SAVE your project, with NO audio
7) IMPORT the previously exported MP3 files back into proper
slides
**Note: Captivate will automatically reproduce the WAV files.
8) SAVE once more - your CP file size should be much smaller
now.
Hope this helps. Another member and I recently used these
steps to reduce one of his CP files from nearly160Mb to less than
55 Mb, and I'm confident it will work for you as well.
Have a good day!

PROBLEM EDITING AUDIO BETWEEN PREMIERE CS4 AND AU OR SB

I have a problem editing my audio files in audition or soundboth, when I return to premiere after have edited the file in AU or SB, I can't see the wave in premiere but I can hear the audio.
I have to rebote premiere to see the wave.
What could be happening?
could you help me, please?
Excuse me for my english, I speak spanish.

What are your exact steps to edit in SB or AU? Do you first Rt-click on the Audio Clip and choose Edit in SoundBooth (or Audition)? Do you Render and Replace (basically what happens with the previous method), and then Open that resulting file in SB, or AU?
From SB, or AU, how do you Save your file - exact steps please?
Good luck,
Hunt

Problems editing audio

I try to add fade in/fade out to a audio text object, but it doesn't work.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Miriam

HI ,
I have not encounterd this problem yet. Did you try following :
Publish the Presentation in a different folder and check again.
Use save as to save this presentaion with different name and publish and verify.
if issue is still present than please share few information with us.
Is this audio issue is happening for one presentation or for all Presentaitons ?
Are you playing published swf locally or from a server ?
Can you please share sample file if possible ? Package this presentation mail to [email protected]
This will help us to figure out the issue and I will try to resolve this issue ASAP.

Overwrite edits - audio problems

Hi
Everytime I do an overwrite edit onto my timeline sequence I have audio problems. For example the current edit has 4 audio tracks connected to the video, and the new edit only has 2, but when I do an overwrite edit audio tracks 3 and 4 keep the old content. Is there a way around this? Would appreciate any help.
Thanks

I'm afraid there's not a way for 2 tracks to overwrite 4. (funny too, you'd think there was a way) You'll have to lift them out...
Shouldn't happen a lot to you though if you get your base 2 track audio done before you add any more audio tracks. Such as locking your video and sync audio then add effects or music...

How to send FCP edited audio clips for processing in Soundtrack?

Hello
How do I send just the edited audio clips from hour long files to be processed in Soundtrack from Final Cut?
I need help as I'm trying to adjust some edited audio clips in Soundtrack Pro but when I send them from FCP to Soundtrack - it opens the whole original audio file and then any adjustments I apply in Soundtrack are being processed over the whole audio file not just the short edited audio clip that I want to adjust.
Normally I don't mind as my scenes are usually short and Soundtrack analysis over the whole scenes audio is usually desirable, but this projects files have been transfered from tapes as hour long AVI files (all the tapes clips transfered into one hour long files) and every FCP edited audio clip I send is being treated as an hour long audio file in Soundtrack.
I'm sure there's a simple answer for settings but I haven't been able to find it. Any advice appreciated.
Barra

Thanks Javi, my sequence is an hour and half duration so what I'm trying to do is save processing time in Soundtrack by just processing adjustments on the few audio clips that need processing.
I have set Soundtrack to open referenced audio only and with 5 sec in and out handles, but it still imports the whole original audio file into Soundtrack timeline upto the selected clip, I then double click in Soundtrack on the clip in brackets, and it then selects just the audio clip I want to adjust, then Soundtrack will just process on the edited clip but when I 'render to action' it seems to apply changes to whole original audio file - taking longer than I want.... frustrating
Also the sound always sounds very different in FCP than Soundtrack even after 'rendering to action' and rendering in FCP... this is not the easy workflow I expect from such expensive software programs, I understood that they work together in a fully integrated way, what's the problem! This is wasting my precious time and preventing me from editing not helping me, this is a common problem and yet I can find no help in the user manual - I'm not impressed!

Edit Audio dialog box won't open

I cannot get the Edit Audio dialog box open -- I've double-clicked and right-clicked the audio in the timeline, tried the menu Audio > Edit > Slide..., poked around in Settings and Preferences but cannot find anything amiss in there.
I don't get any error message. Nothing happens at all.
I'm using Captivate 4 on a Windows XP machine, I've done a few projects before and never encountered this problem.
Any ideas??
Urgent help would be much appreciated -- have to get two project done in the next 24 hours.
Thanks in advance

Hi there
Try clobbering your preferences file.
Close Captivate
Open Windows Explorer
Navigate to the location below:
C:\Documents and Settings\*YOUR USER NAME HERE*\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
Delete the file named captivate_v40.dat
Restart Captivate and see if the problem is solved.

Issue / problem adding audio in Presenter 7 (PowerPoint 2010)

Since I got a new PC (Windows 7), I'm having an issue / problem adding audio in Presenter 7 (PowerPoint 2010).
It doesn’t happen every time, but randomly with many presentations...
In PowerPoint, right after I import audio (through Presenter) and click “ok”, I get the following errors:
Then, I can't get into the "import/sync/edit" mode, from the Presenter tab...
Already tried reinstalling Presenter, resaving new presentations, deleting the .ppcx/audio folders, importing the audio locally (vs from my network drive), etc.
Then sometimes, randomly, it will let me get back in and edit the audio, after numerous attempts…?!? I can't figure out what the pattern is, which is causing this new problem (never had this problem before, w/ my old PC - Win XP / PowerPoint 2003 / Presenter 6 & 7)
Anybody have an idea what the issue could be?
Thanks,
Mike P.

Hello,
I tried to reproduce this issue but I am not getting any error message. Please provide us following information; this might help to reproduce this issue:-
1) You are seeing this issue in PPT or PPTX
2) You seeing this issue in newly created presentations or its just old presentation which is not working properly.
3) OS and PowerPoint version
4) If this issue is consistent on any particular presentation then please share it.
5) Can we have exact reproducible steps
Regards,
Shubhi

Premiere Pro CC crashes when editing audio- any solutions?

Adobe Premiere Pro CC crashes nearly every time I try to edit audio, keyframe it in certain spots, etc, etc, with the error message that there has been an "unexpected problem" and the program must "force quit." Sometimes my work is saved, sometimes it isn't. And then I have to re-name my saved file, so I often end up with upwards of 15 different project files because I cannot edit audio without this program crashing. I see I'm not the only one--what is Adobe doing to fix this bug-riddled program? It's impossible to get anything done!
I'm using this program on a MAC, 6-Core Intel Xeon Processor. MAC OS X Lion 10.7.5.
I'm ready to lose my mind.

I am having a very similar experience.....I have been working in Adobe Premiere Pro for well over 8 years and have always had issues with crashes when working with audio files, keyframing, transition placement, trimming and so on. I have had nightmares with some projects that I am having crashes every change I do and it seems once you get an issue with a project it only gets worst. I have worked on a number of different systems in regards to hardware and get the same issues, OS has been Windows 7 64bit for number of years. I would have expected Adobe to have been able to smooth this out by now but it just keeps rearing its ugly head when I`m on a deadline crunch.
I try to never work with Mp3s and always request wav but it doesn't seem to matter in the long run.
Just wanted to let you know you are not the only one and I am having a serous issue with this problem once again!
Please help Adobe....audio is an issue with Premiere Pro for a lot of us....thanks!

Premiere pro cc 2014 problems with audio

I have edited some sequences in premiere using sony xdcam ex clips. The clips where recorded as 1080 50i. I have edited it in the same sequence properties as premiere sugested it. All there is fine and audio is playing well. The problem strats when i change the sequence properties and select it at 1080 60i or 29p. The audio is distorted and it sounds like robotic, sometimes audio is muted on audio transitions. When i revert the properties back to 50i then all is fine.
Anyone else experience the same problems?

Sometimes i must add some clips that are recorded on canon 6d on 29.97p. and this clips look choppy and jerky on 50i sequence. But on 60i sequence both 50i and 29.97p look good. On premiere cc i cann change sequence properties without any problems with audio, only on cc 2014 that audio problem exist.

Presenter 7 - how to insert marker type "Click" in Edit Audio dialog

http://www.adobe.com/education/resources/hed/instructional/connect/collaborative_teaching/ pdfs/edit_audio_adobe_pres.pdf
The above document includes information that you can add four types of markers by using the Audio Editor in Presenter and one of the marker types is mouse-click animation. I can't find a way to do it in reality. The only way to insert this type of market is in Edit Sync dialog, not in Edit Audio. This requires resynchronisation of the whole audio instead of just adding one marker. In Edit Audio dialog I only have markers of type "Wait for user" and "Go to slide".

Hi,
This problem Could happen when you referesh quality or test system.
Your delta setup for the related master and transaction data needs to be reinit.
What happens is when you init. the delta and subsequent delta is all maintained in your source system
please check Notes 852443,424848,834229
Hope this helps

Premiere Pro to Adobe Audition Dynamic link does not work. Cannot edit audio in Audition.

Trying to edit Audio from Premiere Pro within Audition thru the Dynamic link but it does not fire up Audition to edit. Seems like a common problem/bug. But no one has posted a solution. Please Help
-Windows 7
-Premiere Pro CC 2014
-Adobe Audition CC 2014

You dont understand it was all working fine in the previous Adobe versions. matter of fact you can go on youtube and see a couple of videos that shows the work flow between Premiere Pro and audition by way of Dynamic link. If you edit a video clip in Premier Pro and want to add some music or simply edit the audio that is contained in the video there was a time within Premiere Pro you can just right click "Edit in Adobe Audition" and Audition would open with the audio clip in place. Much in the same way Premiere Pro works with After Effects thru the Dynamic Link. The Dynamic Link is the bridge between applications to work with each other. For some reason Premiere Pro and Audition Dynamic Link is not working properly.

Why the Fatal Error when trying to preview or edit audio in Cp 8?

I installed Cp 8 last week. (Been using Cp 3 for years, finally made the leap). Made a presentation on Cp 8 just fine -- everything worked wonderfully. Preview ... audio edits ... everything was fine.
This week I'm working on another presentation and suddenly the program goes into a fatal error EVERY TIME I try to preview it.
So --- I continued creating my presentation without previewing anything, and then recorded audio for the project. But when I went to edit the audio, BAM - another fatal error.
This is not good. :-)
Anyone else have this problem? Any known solutions?

Sorry -- not much geek in my blood, so I forget to provide that info. :-)
OS: Win 7
The program is installed on my desktop, and there is no network. It's only my computer.
Yes, there is PLENTY of space.
I downloaded the program last week with the help of Adobe Tech support, because the program would not install. An error kept appearing saying it was missing a file. Spent 7 hours on Christmas Eve working with tech support in New Delhi, 1.5 hours of which was on the phone with the tech support having remote control of my computer. We finally figured out that AVG was preventing the install, so we deactivated AVG and then the program installed just fine.
As I said, I've been using Cp 3 for YEARS, so I'm familiar with what Cp is capable of doing. I created a project two days after Christmas and everything worked just find. Was able to preview anytime I wanted, and had no problem editing my audio.
Then without making any other changes to my computer's configuration, two days ago I was working on another presentation and went to preview the slide. The program reached 58% and then gave a fatal error, forcing shutdown. I thought I might be a hiccup, so I closed everything down and rebooted the computer, but still the same problem every time I tried to preview. I had half a dozen attempts, and each time a fatal error, always at the place where it says 58% complete (for the preview).
So --- I went ahead and completed the slide layouts without previewing anything, and figured I would add the audio, edit it, and publish the presentation. I recorded the audio (my voice) just fine, but when I tried to edit it (audio > edit > project), the system experienced a fatal error, again at the 58% mark of preparation.
My presentations are saved and backed up ... I've been thinking that I need to uninstall / reinstall the program, but after spending 7 hours doing that on Christmas Eve, I was hoping there might be an alternative solution.

[Vox] MSI VOX TV BOX USB 2.0 problem with audio drivers compatibility

Ok,let's go...
I have a DELL Latitude d510 laptop with a centrino 1.73 GHz procesor and a soundcard supported by Sigmatel software Sigmatel C-Major audio.I bought MSI VOX TV BOX USB 2.0 and tried to install it on my lap top.Yes,I had problems with SP2 on my XP and the MSIVPS software from the instalation CD was crashing every time I tried to start it,but I solved those problems by downloading the latest drivers and the 3.xx version of MSIPVS.But...I still have a problem with audio.To be precise it seems that my audio drivers are incompatible with the VOX drivers.So now I have video but I don't have audio.Also I installed the tv card on my desktop machine and it worked like a charm(everything workes:audio,video,the old MSIPVS which I like better than the new one cause it supports my remote,has better way of managing scanned channels,e.t.c ,but I have USB 1.1 on my MB so the image quality is very poor).I did a lot of experimenting,for example i uninstaled my audio drivers(that Sigmatel C-Major thing),and installed the old MSIVPS and guess what...IT WORKED but there is no use from this cause I don't have audio On the other hand if I have everything installed then in the MSIVPS (the 3.xx version not the old one) under audio I get CD Player as an input audio device(what happened with microphone...?).To cut the long story short I tried a bunch of things and still no audio.Is there any other case of DELL audio software-VOX incompatibility?Any ideas,or solutions?

thank you for answering me. y have no pci card working, only usb 2.0 and sata devices. also, the MSI geforce 9600gt PExp 2.0 gpu. the only usb 2.0 devices which work, are the flash (pen) drives, keyboard and mouse. but no way that the WLAn adapter and TVcapture, both usb 2.0 work.i've tested them front side and rear side and is the same failure: if i use a pendrive, works ok. if i insert the wlan or the tv capture stop work as the 2.0 and a advertising window tell me to change to a 2.0 port, means the ports are working slower, at 1.1. i still have the other PC, built on the MSI K9N4-slif mobo, tested them and both devices work at perfection. i have 2 screenshots to show you:
this, is the device manager (sorry, in spanish but you understand that's about the nVIDIA EHCI USB 2.0 controller. the 2nd one seems to be more sensitive (works worth) then the first one. when the tvcapture begin work, then fails, i'm trying to update this controller, does it ok but then the devicemanager-window freeze. i must stroke the "enter" key to "accept" / finish the update. then, fails again:
the other one is from everest corporate edition:
both drivers marked with purple colour!
i think i should update this Win XP drivers, but how? the usbport.inf file (C:\Windows\inf) don't change anything. i don't want to switch xp to vista, i'm happy whit it.
i'm thinking also on another possibility: could be an energy failure? some usb devices, like the big usb flash dives. 250-320gb, fail because the 5v/usb are receiving it's not enough. could be, but that means this mobo has no solution and i'll loose my money.
thank you very much and i'll stay alert of your suggestions. by

Problems sending audio to and from STP and then back into FCP

I am having problems getting audio clips back into FCPro 5 after sending them to STP and editing them.
This is my process: "Send" mono file to STP as new audio project file.
Save it in the dialog that opens with "sent" at the end...then it opens in STP.
Edit it.
Save it and select include audio source files.
Switch back to FCPRo and I have a warning "Some Files Went offline", namely the one I just sent to Soundtrack. The clip is now apparently offline and white colored but now has the file name with "sent" included.
Where did I go wrong? This was working for me previously.
Dave Beaty all the latest SW versions ect...

Hi Blearyeyes,
I was just relaying what I've heard about the media going offline--I didn't claim that it made sense to me in these sorts of workflows where you know you are changing the media in STP, because you've just sent it to STP to be modified.
I've since dug through the FCP manuals, and it looks like it's the FCP rules about when a clip is considered to be offline that we're hitting--in the User Manual Part 2, on pages 79-80 there are some details about what causes the clip to go offline.
Here is one of the key statements from page 80--a clip is considered offline, "when a media file is modified, moved, or deleted, the modification date of the media file is changed, or the scratch disk becomes unavailable."
