Ridiculous Audio distortion returning audio from Audition

Working in Premier Pro CC (not 2014), sometimes it happens once a day that I'd send audio to Audition, edit it and save it, and then when I return for playback in Premiere, it explodes in my ears with the most ungodly distortion, at FULL volume.
I cannot explain what a foul mood that puts me in (thankfully not sitting with a client), because of how severely painful it is when you're working with headphones and suddenly it blows up with the sound of Zeus' thunder clapping fart bombs, right in your ears. Adobe CC doesn't come with hearing insurance, does it?
All grumbles aside, this problem requires me to quit Premiere and open the same file, after which everything works normal, including the send-around via Audition. It works for a day, like it worked yesterday, and then today for some reason did it again.
I know I'll be advised to upgrade to CC 2014, and I have, but I've had too many times that it started too slowly or crashed, which is why I'm using the older CC version. I'll figure out the 2014 issues on another time, but I've been told numerous times that the older Premiere CC was updated to resolve this distortion issue, and yet I'm still experiencing it.
Any solutions to this problem anyone know of?

It probably won't make any difference as FCE only references the audio file that's on your hard drive. When you import a song you only tell FCE (create a file path) where to find it.
Regarding changing applications mid stream, not a wise idea, even though it will probably work OK going to FCP. Be best to complete the current project then make the jump.

  • Exporting 5.1 audio from Audition to single, multichannel audio file

    I'm having problems exporting 5.1 audio.  I need to be able to import a 5.1 (or 8 channel file, if left total and right total are included), edit one of the channels individually, and export the session to a single .WAV file containing 6 (or 8) separate channels.
    So far, I've been able to split the original multichannel file to 6 mono files, and put them on their own tracks.  But every time I try to export, I either end up with 6 channels (but only two with audio on them), or 6 completely blank channels.  I've tried every combination of Mixdown Options and Master track routing I can think of, but to no avail.
    I'm using Audition 7.0.0.118.  Please help.  If you respond, please be as specific as possible, since I'm a n00b at this.  Thanks.

    Are you opening the mono files into a 5.1 Multitrack session and using the surround panner to send them to the appropriate tracks?
    What do you need to do to the one track that needs editing separately? You might be better off opening the audio as a multichannel file in the Waveform Edit view and do any processing on the one track there. You will then be able to save out to the same multichannel format as the original.

  • Bad Header error importing Audio from Audition to Premiere Pro

    Hey guys,
    I'm not sure if anyone is experiencing a problem like this below, but recently, I have been up in arms trying to export a 90-minute feature film's audio (Ch. 1=Dialogue - Ch. 2=M+E - 5.1 Surround Mix) in a .wav file format, and every time I try to export it out, it PLAYS in Quicktime player, but it WON'T import into Premiere Pro (citing BAD HEADER ERROR) in file.  I basically tried to utilize every file format there is for audio and such, but nothing is working (including .aif, but it kept cutting out at 13mins into the show).  I separated the dialogue music and sfx in 3 submixes, but I needed to combine the Music and Submix into 1 submix to have ONE DIALOGUE Submix, and ONE M+E submix for our distributors.  Any help to fix this would be great. 

    Paul,
    Sorry to hear about the PC -> Mac problem. Old 6.5 Mac Project opened fine in CS2 PC, after I added the file extensions.
    As for the AVI, Curt is correct. There should be a utility for the Mac, like G-Spot, which will tell you everything about your AVI file. Unfortunatly, I do not know if G-Spot is ported for the Mac (www.headbands.com/gspot), so you might need to find similar for you platform. You can then identify the necessary CODEC and install it.
    Last, you should be able to find an edit-shop that has CS3 on PC and get them to Import the old Project, then Export it in CS3, so you can open it on your Mac. If not a commercial shop, then maybe a friend with CS3 on PC? Next best thing might be to find a Mac with Premiere 6/6.5 (last Mac version, prior to CS3 ?) and try that route.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • No Audio from Exported Sped Up Sections

    Hi,
    I have a sequence, which in the preview sounds exactly as I want it to, however in any rendering (including full sample rate Wav audio rendering) the audio from sections sped up more than 5 or so time is silence.
    The high pitched sound from the sped up sections is a major part of my piece. Any ideas?
    If I could wrap the previews in some kind of container I would be done
    Thanks for any help
    Christopher
    (CS6)

    So I got a workflow,
    Copy the sped up portion,
    Paste it at the end of the sequence
    change the speed to 100%
    export to audition
    speed up... voila...
    Unfourtunately, the sped up audio from audition just sounds horrible, its emprty of all the little high pitched mush that was the point in the first place
    OK, it was "lock stretch to pitch shift (resample)" which rather ambiguously means "do not pitch shift"

  • Exporting layers of audio from After Effects  cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?

    exporting layers of audio from After Effects  cs6 to Premiere / or Audition? Is this possible?
    Help - I have an After effects project with multiple layered files and want to copy these to Premiere / Audition. For example I know if you select multiple video files from After Effects these can be pasted straight into Premiere intact - but this does not work with audio. I want to take existing layered audio files from After Effects to Audition / or Premiere but can't copy and paste - is there a simple solution for this?

    Hi thanks Dave for responding - yes that could work as a 'workaround' -  I was hoping there would be a way I can keep the existing independent audio layers and corresponding audio levels from After Effects- in the same way I can copy and paste video files from After Effects to Premiere - rather than exporting a flattened AIFF /WAV from After Effects.
    This would then allow me a lot more control working on the final edit - especially as currently a lot of the audio layers overlap. It does seem there is no simple solution for this, so  otherwise I can do what you suggest - and 'stagger all the audio files' in sequence so they do not overlap on the timeline and then when I import the flattened exported AIFF file into Audition/ Premeire / I then can cut it up again and recreate the overlaps. Was hoping there might be a simple copy + paste method or other 'export method' but I guess this is simply not possible. It would save me about 7 hours of work, but not the end of the world I guess
    One final point - some of the audio clips are .mp3s but the majority are WAVS, hopefully this should not create any issues on the export.
    thanks again for your help, if you or anyone has any other solution pls let me know
    Best

  • Extracting audio from premier project is not automatically opening in audition .How to reset this

    I was  using the feature of extracting audio from a time line in Premier for working on noise reduction and so on .It used to open automatically on choosing
    " EDIT CLIP IN AUDITION"  and on "saving" it was ready in Premier for further action. Now this is not happening. What happened and how do I reset this feature please?

    Not a reply but some more input. The culprit is not Safari but iChat, which I discovered just now, having run the app and quit after the person I was inviting wasn't available. I'm grateful for anyone who shed some light on this for me.
    All the best,

  • Audio from Sony EX1r Camera will not round trip from Audition

    With Premier CC15 the audio from my Sony EX1R Video Camera comes back from Audition after the edit  just as a loud buzz.  It works fine in Premier 6 and also CC.  My Panasonic camera Audio, as well as all others work fine. 
    Can someone help?

    Giving up? Four product releases in nine months. That's a pretty aggressive development schedule for a new product.
    Motion is a separate development track and always has been. Roundtripping to Motion was not available in its first releases. Apple has taken a new approach with publishing and rigging, which has great benefits. It basically meant that the entire effects, transitions, generators, and titling architecture didn't have to be rebuilt in FCP and that the two applications can work together. There are a lot of things this allows. For instance, if you want to add effects from Motion to clips in FCP, roundtripping is quite unnecessary; simply publish the effect with the parameters you need and apply the effect inside FCP.
    Roundtripping is really useful for a lot of things and will probably be implemented. In the interim third party soluations using XML hooks are available.

  • Adobe Audition 3.0 and Pinnacle 700 USB - How to record audio from VHS tapes???

    Hi Friends,
    I am new to Adobe Audition 3.0. I need your help.
    Actually I am having a old Pinnacle 700 USB capture card. I want to record some audio in my computer by Adobe Audition.
    I downloaded and installed required driver for Pinnacle 700 USB (for Vista).
    But when I tried to capture audio from my VHS tapes, It not showing proper options. I don't know how to proceed further.
    Could any one please help me... Please let me know what all I need to do.
    Waiting for your helpful suggestions.
    Thanks,
    Yash

    The Pinnacle is a video capture device and as such captures the video and audio into one MPEG or DV stream. Audition can't see it as an audio card and therefore can't capture audio directly from your video source. However once you have captured a video file using the Pinnacle you can probably get to the audio by using the Open Audio from Video command in the File menu in Audition.

  • IOS 6.1.2 STILL does not fix massively distorted and compressed audio from videos

    I bought an iPad to show prospective clients my video and audio recording services.
    Ever since changing to iOS 6 the audio from all the videos that I have put on the iPad are completely
    distorted and overly comressed. The slightest bass note and everything is garbled beyond belief.
    The same videos on my iPhone 4 sound wonderful as they should, but the same videos on the iPad
    are completely wasted. Playing the sound through the built in speaker of the iPad proves good, but
    the headphone output is horrible. Audio from other sources is clean and undistorted.
    I spoke to Apple Care about six times, and two different Senior Advisors neither of which did anything for me.
    I had the local Apple store replace the iPad but that made no difference.
    I now have two iPads and they both have the same exact issue. 
    It's just pathetic that Apple has not addressed this. 
    Dan   

    Addressed an issue that only you seem to be having?
    Apple offers great service but not this personalized.
    I have never had this issue and I transfer or watch a lot of video to my iPad.

    Demystifying Audio – Adobe Audition for Video Editors
    Thursday, July 25h, 2013 |10:00 AM Pacific Time
    Presented by: Larry Jordan
    "The best way to improve the quality of your picture is to improve the quality of your sound" - Larry Jordan
    The first question many video editors ask is: "why should I consider using an audio application for my projects?"
    In this special presentation, Larry Jordan will show you how you can use Adobe Audition to create better videos.
    Starting with an overview of the application, Larry will then demonstrate how Audition can make your life a lot easier.
    During this 45-minute presentation, you'll discover:
    How to send files and projects between Premiere Pro and Audition
    How to remove hum from an interview How to remove background noise
    How to maximize audio levels without causing distortion
    How to do an audio mix of your project
    How to create "stems," or submixes, of your dialog, effects, and music tracks
    How to test your final mix to be sure it meets all technical specs before submitting it to the client.
    The session will be followed by a Q&A.
    Audience: video editors, postproduction professionals, audio pros
    Applications: Adobe Audition CC and Adobe Premiere Pro CC.
    Workflows with other NLEs will also be discussed.

    I don't think this will be on Adobe TV, but you can view the Adobe Connect recording of the session here:
    http://bit.ly/askcspro_0826
    If the audio stream doesn't play, or loses synch, try moving the playhead forward/backward a bit. That should kick it back into synch.
    I plan to have a little guide to the session, along with some helpful links, posted later today.

  • How can I send audio from an application to the HDMI port on my Mac Mini while also sending the audio to another application?

    I am trying to use VLC (or any streaming audio player) and listen to a web radio station while at the same time using Audacity to monitor the CODEC's digital level.  I want to make a digital measurement of the level that the streaming radio station is using on the air.  I can calibrate the levels for maxbit by overdriving my web stations encoder and watching for clipping distortion on the decode on Audacity (waveform view).  I then calibrate the clipped value to the 0dB peak on Audacity's meters or waveform view.  I also am trying to calibrate and use the free Orban Loudness meter.  I require something like Soundflower (as others have indicated) but I find that sound flower is very unstable (or maybe mis-configured on my machine with Lion).   I think there is a clock drift issue since Soundflower works well for some number of minutes and then distortion appears in one of the outputs (either the HDMI or the feed to Audacity/Orban Loudness Meter).  I would have thought this was easy on a Mac, but as it turns out it is not.  Am I missing something here and there is a way to send audio from one application to my HDMI output and another application?

    Thanks Rudegar for the response. I was already afraid that Apple TV won't be of any help.
    Is there no solution for getting an audio-stream into the "airplay-system", e.g. by using another apple device?

  • Downloading audio from a video file from iTunes?

    I have a 40G 4th Gen click wheel iPod (no color or video). Is there a way to download just the audio from a video file that I have in iTunes?

    I use Steve's method all of the time, and edit the Audio output in Adobe Audition. You will want to Export/Share to PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, and keep that format both going and coming back into PrE. Remember that you will be working with an Audio file, that is the full (or almost) Duration of the Timeline. When you Import that edited Audio file, give the program a few moments to Conform that newly Imported PCM/WAV for editing. I suggest not touching the computer, until Conforming has completed 100%, and the little progress bar in the lower-right of the GUI has disappeared. If the Imported Audio file is short, and your computer is fast, you might not even see that progress bar, but the Conforming has taken place, just the same.
    I like to keep the original Audio on its Audio Track(s), and just use Window>Audio Mixer to Mute that/those Track(s), leaving only my edited Audio on its own Track un-Muted. This is a "fail-safe," just in case I change my mind along the way, and wish to revert to the original Audio for some reason. It is much easier to Mute-Unmute, than to gather up all of that original Audio again.
    Good luck, and happy editing,
    Hunt

  • Fastest way to transfer video and audio from MacBook to TV?

    Hello All,
    Thanks for visiting my page. I would like to transfer video and audio from my Macbook mid-2010 (specs below), and would like to do so with minimum lag. I m aware Apple TV has a feature which allows me to do that, however considering it is connected via either wi-fi or bluetooth (not sure which) I feel streaming an HD movie or playing an MMO will cause significant lag and/or a distorted picture.
    So with that said, what is the best way to transfer video and audio with minimal lag?
    Also, as a part II of the question, will the picture be distorted regardless if my TV is 60 inches?
    Thanks for the feed back!
    Macbook Specs:
    Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
    Software  OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)

    The easiest and most reliable option is to connect your Mac to the TV wired. Just buy a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable to connect your MacBook to your TV. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241 Image and sound will appear on the TV automatically.
    If the adapter and cable are OK, you won't get the picture distorted. Your Mac will try to use the maximum resolution the GPU allows in order to adapt the picture to your TV. It may not support the maximum resolution of the TV, but picture won't be distorted

  • How to rip RAW PCM audio from a DVD

    Hi guys,
    I know audition can rip audio from a cd and from a video file but how can I rip the raw pcm audio from a dvd. I usually just record using 'what you hear' through my soundcard but is there a more accurate way of ripping the audio from a dvd? Any help would be nice....thanks in advance
    George

    I don't know of a way to do it with Audition, but there are some free little programs like VirtualDubMod or SmartRipper that can rip the WAV. There are some tutorials on the net on how to do it.
    Just as a side note, PCM Audio on DVDs has 48 kHz samplerate, not 44.1 kHz like CDs.
