Reconforming NanoFlash Audio Files On Pre 502 Update Projects

Hi, This forum has been extremely helpful. Thanks you. In 502 update the audio issues with NanoFlash files has been fixed. However, projects created before the 502 update still have issues with audio. One suggestion was to remove the PEK and CFA files form the Media Cache files so they would reconform and work. Are there any other files I need to delete beside PEK and CFA to get this work? Does anyone else have another solution? Thanks Roman

having same problem on mac system. really causing problems...only solution is to quit program and restart....
have done all the same efforts as above.
really.
help.

NanoFlash audio files on the timeline

Hello,
I am new to the MXF format and have been working mainly with HDV and AVCHD files.
I am interested in buying a Nanoflash and have downloaded the sample file from the CD website.
I have the 1080i60 files.
I have the current version of CS5, and when I inport these clips using the correct XDCAM settings, a place them on the timeline,
the audio portion goes down to the Audio Track number 9. I am use to the audio track being right next to the video track or in the Audio 1 track.
Question: Am I doing something wrong or is this normal for MXF files?
The clip plays fine, but having the audio down on Track 9 is wierd for me.
Any advice or help is appreciated.
~ Rookie

Thanks Harm for the reply but this isn't the case, at least I don't
think it is. The audio track from CD is stereo, it shows a left and right.
I cannot move that audio track either, it's stuck on track nine. When I try to move it the video portion moves with it.
That is probably a seperate issue...I'm not real skilled with CS5 yet.
I thought I read in another post too where the audio from the NanaFlash was showing up on 9.
I find this a bit strange having 8 empty audio tracks between the Video and audio.
Weird. Is anyboby else experiencing this with the Nanoflash sample files?

Can't play audio files from pre-Intel Mac

I have some audio files from my old PowerPc Mac (around 1998) which I'd dearly like to be able to hear again on my 2011 Intel G5 Mac (10.7.4).
The files were created by me on the old Mac using the basic sound recording software that came with all Macs. The files are just people speaking.
I have attached an image of the icon that is associated witho these files now. For some of these files, the properties show the file type as "QuickTime Player.app Document".I tried opening the files using Quicktime Player app, to no avail.
Other files are shown as being a "Unix Executable file" type.
I also have other files from the old Mac with this same icon. With those that I know were text files of some kind, I have just simply added .txt at the end of the filename and hey presto, the file is viewable again. I haven't been so lucky with the others.
I imagine also that its not so simple with these audio files but I wouldn't know what file extension to use as I haven't worked with audio files before.
Also, is there a way to keep these files in some generic format, to avoid this problem happening again in the future, as technology advances?
If you can help with this problem, please reply.

.... on my 2011 Intel G5 Mac (10.7.4)
There is no such thing as an Intel G5 Mac.

I'm trying to import .amr or QuickTime audio files into an imovie 11 project

My only option under Edit>import is movie, so, when I choose "movie" and locate the file on my desktop, it is not available (grayed out). How can I convert the original file [downloaded from my cell phone (.amr)] to to some form that I can use in imovie?

gwenfromknoxville,
I have a solution for you. I had the same problem this morning and got creative. Here's what I did:
Fast iTunes Pre-prep preferences check:
Preferences > Import Settings > Import UsingSelect "MP3 Encoder"
Converting .amr file
Open .amr file with regular QuickTime (or Pro version if you have it)
In QuickTime save as "movie format" to your desktop
Drag that new file into your iTunes
Locate file and right click it
Select "Convert to MP3"
That will give you an MP3 audio file to use in iMovie or iTunes.

Overview for audio files not showing up in project.

I just got a new mac, transferred everything over, and everything is working great except...
I have lost the overviews of all of my wav files for one song.
please help ^_^
bp

"Does it display overviews of newly added audio files in the arrange?"
no it does not
"If not you would have to export tracks to audio files and import them into a new project file."
that would stink...
any other ideas, i really don't want to have to export all of those tracks, and then add the 40 or so plugins back in
also, bouncing over and over can create problems, so i prefer to only bounce once (final)

How do I revert to replaced audio files being saved with the project file, *not* with the original audio files?

In the latest release, when you send an audio clip to Audition, the newly created audio clip - which was previously saved in the same folder as the project file - is saved next to the original audio file.
Makes sense, but for reasons to boring to go into, it's a major headache for my workflow, because it means combing through folders to find the files, instead of having them all in once place.
So how to I turn this off and revert to those files being saved next to the project file?

Hey Steve,
You'll want to connect your phone to your computer and sync it in iTunes. You can read more about it here:

.wav audio file not syncing up to project

I have a project of a concert that i have recorded in DV/NTSC 29.97fps and 48kHz rate for audio and wanted to sync a master audio .wav file, replacing the original audio from the recording but at the end of the set, the audio goes out of sync. I tried to export the audio file from a sequence w/ 29.97 fps and used the exported audio file on the concert and it is still doing the same thing. Its there something i am not doing right?

I believe that there's your problem - because 30fps is not exactly the same as 29.97fps. It is 0.1% slower and that may be causing your drift. Try doing a speed change on your audio file (command-J) and just make it 101% of its original speed. See if that works?

Duplicated items, Unlinking files, and Importing an updated project

My brother and I are co-editing a project in Premiere Pro CC because it is so large. However, we've been finding difficulties when importing each others edits. We have it set up so that we work on different sequences of the project at a time. When I import a sequence, it also imports all of the files used in the sequence. The problem is that this creates duplicates in my project since we're using the same files. It seems like there isn't an easy way to re-link the source material from the imported sequence to the existing files already located in my project. Whenever I try to delete a duplicated item, it removes it from the updated sequence. I have to manually click on each file, make offline, then somehow relink it to the file I want it to be linked to. This is a big hassle for us and I'm hoping that there is some simple, massive relinking option that gets rid of these duplicates.

When I import a sequence, it also imports all of the files used in the sequence.
That happens only when you import the entire project. When you import just a sequence, it will bring in only the media not already in the project.

How to delete audio files if using manual update

hi,
i have my iPod set for manual updating and i just realized that when i delete songs using iTunes the actual files stay on the iPod, wasting disc space. how can i delete those to free up more disc space (other than searching for each song and deleting it manually every time)? i will start using automatic updating evenutally but for now i am stuck with manual updating.
thanks in advance...

Under the "manually manage songs" setting, you should be able to click the little arrow next to your iPod in iTunes. Then, if you want to get rid of a song on your iPod, just select it, and hit backspace. I don't know why this wouldn't work, but it worked with my iPod.

Why can't I import .jpg files into PRE 9 slideshow project?

I have a Windows 7 computer and use Photoshop Elements 9 and Premiere Elements 9. I recently completed a slideshow for my father's 90th birthday in Photoshop Elements that contains about 360 photos, 12 songs/partial songs, and lasts 24 minutes. My intention is to burn it to a DVD so that it can play on Windows and Mac computers, as well as on televisions in DVD players.
When I tried to import the project into Premiere Elements I got an error message: "Adobe Photoshop Elements Slideshow Import Error: Following file formats could not be imported in Adobe Premiere Elements - .jpg."
From a little digging I have done I saw a post that said that my photo files have to be: 1) 24-bit RGB color, and 2) no larger than 1000 x 750 pixels. If this is true, then many of my photos have too many pixels, which must be causing the error message. Does anyone know if this is correct? If so, is there any way that I can fix my problem without going in to each photo file and reducing the size of the pixels/file? I am also wondering if upgrading to the most recent versions of Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements could help me. Thanks very much in advance for any advice or suggestions.

welcome HarleyQ to the  boards ...
avi and mov are socalled containers, some say "wrapper"; inside such a container are all kind of "codecs" (formats...)
iM is meant to work with miniDV camcorders; these use a codec called dv..
so, iM prefers a dv (inside a mov.. or an avi, if the file is made on a PC...)
QTpro allows you, to look inside an avi (or mov), and looking for the used codec; QTpro also allows the conversion of many codecs into dv.. but not all; you can teach QT new tricks, by installing plug-ins, codecs for divx, wmv, ...
goto www.perian.org, and install that plug-in.. probably, it helps to handle your avi................

How do I import audio files from itunes to my project?

I know this could be very easy, I've imported music files from disc to projects before, but they keep going off line. So I want to find out an easier/better process to import music files from itunes into my FCP projects.

#5 Imported music from CD or iTunes
Shane's Stock Answer #5:
To get music into FCP, it needs to be an AIFF file at 48khz, 16 bit stereo. So if you want a song from a CD, you go into the iTunes Preferences and set this up under the IMPORTING tab:
File > preferences > importing > import using - AIFF encoder > Setting - Custom
Sample Rate - 48.000 kHz
Sample size - 16 bit
Channels - Stereo
If you have an mp3 that you want to use, then you can convert it thru iTunes as well.
If the piece of music you want to use is something you purchased thru iTunes, I'm afraid I can't help you there. There are copywrite issues that prevent files from being converted into the format that FCP can recognize.

Logic X EXS24 - audio file not found

I know this question crops up often and is usually a Garageband/missing downloadable contents issue but that's not the case here.
I'm a long time Logic user (pre Apple) and can usually work my way around issue or find answers online, but I'm completely stuck with this one.
I've been running my current setup for about eight months now (new Mac Pro, latest versions of Logic Pro and OS) with no problem at all.
I have an extensive sound library stored on external drives (Pegasus2) via Firewire and everything has been zipping along, then yesterday for no know reason EXS24 suddenly gives me the "audio file not found" message when trying to create a new instrument.
All previously created EXS24 instruments load just fine as the audio files were copied onto the project drive, but Logic no longer sees the library on my external drive.
The external drive is working just fine (troubleshooting shows no errors or issues) and I can access it just fine, load sounds into other applications etc), I can also manually drag individual samples into my EXS24 instrument so that it "sees" them, but very impractical to do this with so many audio files, and obviously that's not how it's supposed to work.
I thought I had found a workaround yesterday by making an alias of the folder containing the sound library and copying the alias to User/Music/Audio Music Apps and that worked while I was working yesterday, but on loading Logic today the problem is back.
I've reindexed the drive in question with Spotlight..
As mentioned, this setup has worked for months (and for years on my previous hardware) but suddenly Logic can no longer see those files via EXS24.
Any suggestions as to why this suddenly happened, and more importantly, on a permanent fix?
B.

It doesn't really matter where you put the samples, as the EXS will search for them when you try to load an instrument that references them.
The reason why the "davidfelton" bit is in there, is that the location of the samples is stored inside EXS files. At load time, if the samples are not at that location, the EXS will search for them, and once found, will write the new location back to the EXS file so it doesn't have to search next time.
If the EXS cannot find your samples, then open the EXS preferences and make sure your default search locations will find the files (ie you don't have it set to look on one drive, when the samples are on a different one).
Or you can use the project managers "resolve" function to update the sample locations to all the EXS files in one go.
Any probs, post back...

The audio file is not recognized by Logic. Can't import audio files?

Hi,
The audio files are on my desktop. Logic 9.1.1 will not recognize them and gives me this message when I try to drag and drop OR Import Audio File OR use Audio Bin.
As far as I know, I am using wave files (extension .wav). So what could be the problem. Here's a picture of how the files look on my desktop.
The regular silver and blue iTunes icons look like this when I Get Info:
The black iTunes icons look like this when I Get Info:
Importantly, the black iTunes (only 2 out of the 18 audio files) are the ones that actually import. Does it have something to do with the fact that it shows under "More Info > Audio Channels 1" vs. the silver and blue iTunes .wav files (which do NOT have this)?
Furthermore, here is the process I used to get the audio files in the first place. On my PC, I exported audio files from my Ableton Live project onto a thumbdrive. I copied the audio files from my thumbdrive to my Mac. Maybe this had something to do with it.
Also, as you can see, under Sharing and Permissions > there is only "read and write" for all names, so it's not a permissions thing.
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
+Can you play them as Preview (select in Finder, hit spacebar)?+ No. The black iTunes icons play with no sound and the silver and blue iTunes icons do not even come up in Preview at all.
+Will iTunes play them?+ Only the black iTunes files (2 out of the 18). When I click on a silver and blue icon'd file, it will not even open in iTunes.
why on the desktop? it was just a temporary thing. I was not able to pull them into my Audio Bin. I tried what you suggested. I put the files in the Audio Files folder of my project. When I go to open them from within Logic by Import Audio File, they are visible but greyed out. I don't use the desktop except for testing stuff like you do.
+How was the thumb drive formatted? FAT32 or other DOS-format, or Mac OS Extended (HFS)?
+the extension is not where apps look to recognize an audio file format, it is the header data. Some audio programs can read RAW audio files, but more about that after your reply to this one.+ It is formatted MS-DOS (FAT 32).
(*I wrote all this stuff above while I was working and waiting for the PC to write to my thumbdrive again*******finally I got everything to show up.
I loaded the files again from the thumbdrive. This time they were all in the black iTunes format, and I put them directly in the Audio Files folder like you suggested. After some doing everything works fine. Weird.
Thanks!

When i try to open my projekt in logic pro x it say audio files not found?

when i try to open up a projekt in logic pro x it say audio files not found why is this heppends?

This error typically means the audio files you used in this project are no longer found in their original location.. (did you move or delete them?) or you have renamed the audio files..... or they were located on an external HD etcand that drive or disk is no longer available.... because its not plugged in.

How do I export separate really short wav. audio files?

Hey, I'm having a big problem with the exporting procedure using wav. audio files. For my editing project, a client asked me to export separate wav. audio file from a large audio sequence about a live auction, and he will use each 'bet' audio files for his website. For example, he wants each 'bet' that the auctioneer says to be put as separate wav file, so I cut each number individually with '1', '2', '3', '4', so on and so forth. However, when I'm trying to export each wav audio file for each number, all it came up with is general error message. Is it too short? If so, how do I export really short wav. audio clip? I'm really behind schedule and I don't think there's much of an alternative to send separate short audio files over to his e-mail. Let me know if I'm not making it clear.

I record voice tracks for slide shows that are online training packages that require WAV files.
Here's what I do. It's tedious but the workflow guarantees accuracy and repeatability.
Ingest.
Create master sequence of audio-only. Edit out bad takes. Using blade tool, slice track into separate sections for each slide. Make aditional edits in each slide's segment to take out bad takes, flubs.
Save early, save often.
Select all, adjust levels.
Select all, make independent clip. This step is crucial.
Back in browser, I create a new sequence and call it slide_01 and open the sequence. I go back to the Master, select one at a time the clips that are used for slide_01, use properties and rename them slide_01a, slide_01b, slide_01c. Copy them and paste them into the slide_01 sequence.
Repeat for every slide in the show, sometimes there are forty of the little basterds.
When I'm all done, I select all fo the slide sequences and use batch export.
Making the clips independent means they can be easily edited without referring to the original media. Using batch export means they allgo to the same location with the same settings.
