Separated audio tracks issues between FCP5 and 4.5

Hi guys,
Just have a little issue here:
We are shooting some sports stuff and because we need to do some news cssetts every evening we are working two people on the images.
We have two computers with the following configuration:
Comp. 1
Panter 10.4.1
FCP HD (5.0.1)
Comp. 2
Tiger 10.3.9
FCP 4.5 HD
The issue is that the QT files resulting from the capture on Comp. 1 don't show 2 audio channels on Comp. 1.
They show only a Mono downmix from the two channels with no workout possibility.
On the other hand if we open the same files on comp. 1 (in FCP 5) we do see and control the two channels in separate.
Any ideas??
Cheers

I'm probably the last person to ask about this since I'm NOT an early adopter of upgrqades. Heck, I'm still on FCP 4.5 / OS 10.3 / QT 6.5.1, but I do read the forums regularly.
The general impression that I get from reading the posts is that while FCP 4.5 will work on Tiger, you'd probably have fewer chances of problems if you upgrade to FCP 5. And don't use media captured with FCP 5/QT 7 in projects under FCP 4.5 (using one computer/software combo for capturing and the other computer/software combo for editing). That seems to be where the audio track problem crops up. If both the G4 and G5 systems were running identical software (OS/QT/FCP) then it shouldn't be an issue.

  • Global changes on an audio track or between in and out

    I've come over from Avid and on Avid I could set an in an out point on an audio track and then changes the values of volume and pan which would then be changed between the in and out points.  I'm editing an interview and the radio mic channel has flipped over to one side and I want it in the middle and cannot get it to stay there.    I know that I can "write" in the audio mixer and just hold it there for hours, but I'm assuming there is a simpler way.  I know about paste attributes but it's not clear what I'm copying and where I'm pasting those attributes.  It would be far simpler if I could just select the audio track, set it the way I want it and tell it not to change for the duration.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

    At the lower left of the timeline, there's a button that looks sort of like an upside down V. Click it- the clip overlays. You'll see red lines appear on your audio tracks. Grab the pen tool. Using it, you can click on the red rubber band lines to place key frames where you want. in your case, click once where you want your audio to begin fading out, then click again where you want the fade to end. On this last point, drag the keyframe all the way down, vertically.
    As mentioned earlier, you can do this in the viewer as well - using the pen tool.

  • Audio Track Issue

    Hi All,
    I have my audio track playing on 1, and I want to play another audio on track 2 but my track 2 is controlling from track 1, also the same issue 3 and 4. anyone know how to fix?

    Logic can either be in "Universal Track Mode" or not. If I'm remembering which is which, you are not.
    In Universal Track Mode, any track can be mono or stereo. You switch it by clicking on a little circle (or double circle) on the lower left of the audio object fader.
    In the normal mode (which I prefer but I always have trouble remembering why), to record or play stereo audio tracks you must click that circle on an ODD numbered track. Then it will "enslave" the next higher number even numbered track. You put you stereo track on the odd numbered track and ignore the even numbered track.
    So: If you are trying to play 2 interleaved stereo recordings, put one on track 1 and the other on track 3 -- they are already set up for stereo.
    If you are using mono recordings, click the double circle on track 1 and it will free track 2. put one mono recording on track 1 and the other on track 2.
    Hope that made sense.

  • Why can't I use WebCT chat with my computer?  I get the 'spiral of death' every time I try to type in my chat.  I have a feeling it has to do with compatibility issues between Java and Tiger.

  • How can I edit imported audio track? After selecting and deleting region and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted part! What am I doing wrong?

    What am I doing wrong?

    After selecting and deleting region, and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted region!
    What am I doing wrong?
    How exactly are you doing this?
    When I cut out a part of an audio region, then drag the remaining parts together, so they are touching, the track will skip the cut out section when playing the file.  Also, if I select the remaining parts of the region and use the command "Edit > join regions". This will create a new audio file with the cut out part deleted.
    You should see this prompt, when you are joining the regions:

  • How do I seperate the audio track from the video and save it to a CD in Premiere Elements 13?

    How do I seperate the audio track from the video and save it to a CD in Premiere Elements 13?

    Binbashi
    You can separate the audio track from video and save it to a DVD disc within Premiere Elements but not a CD disc.
    To do save to the audio to DVD disc, you do not have to separate linked audio video, just use the export Publish+Share/Computer/Audio and set Presets to the wanted format (AAC, AIFF, MP3, or Windows Waveform (WAV).
    You will not see Audio in the choices since it is at the bottom of the list of choices under Publish+Share/Computer/. You will need to use the thin scroll bar to the right of the choices to scroll to it.
    If you need information on selective export of Timeline content when dealing with more than just this one file on the Timeline, please let us know. If you are trying to produce a CD for listening in car or CD player elsewhere, please let us know.
    Looking forward to learning of your results.
    Thank you.

  • Separating audio Tracks 1 and 2 in Final Cut Pro 6

    Hello, So this may seem like a easy question but for some reason I'm having trouble.
    I am editing a project with two audio tracks. Track 1 is a lav microphone and track 2 is (back up) boom mic. 
    All of track 1 is great with the wireless mic so I want to get rid of track 2 and duplicate track 1 and make that new track 2.
    I've done this before and never had any problems but now I can't disconnect the two tracks.  If one is locked then the other will not
    delete.  They are stuck together and will not do anything independently. 
    I'm curious what I'm missing.
    If anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    J-

    Click on the audio tracks in the timeline to select them, then go to the menu Modify > Stereo Pair to toggle if you want them to behave as a stereo pair or not (you do not).

  • Audio Sync issues Premiere CC and AJA T-AP

    I need to get the audio sync issues resolved in Premiere. Using CC with an AJA T-tap. I downloaded and installed latest firmware and drivers, and plug-ins. Audio is playing back through Mac Pro line output. When the T-tap is turned off the audio plays in sync with the video on the computer screen. When I turn on T-tap and give it a 200 ms offset, it plays back in sync with my external monitor, but the computer screen is out of sync. If I skip around in the sequence quickly and press the playback, sometimes the monitor is out of sync. I need my audio and video to be in sync on all screens all the time. How do I resolve this issue?
    Thanks, Scott

    Hi team!
    cc: petergaraway
    Wondering if anyone has any updates on the Premiere CC v AJA T-Tap situation?
    I just bought an AJA to go with our new trash can iMac, which has been beasted out so it shouldn't have any performance issues. I have two thunderbolt displays for the edit and a Samsung LED TV on the wall for client monitoring. There is a 10m HDMI cable running to get to the TV, through walls and ceiling, which I just replaced to a cable with a booster in the middle because I thought that distance might be the first cause of the lag.
    I guesstimate we are anywhere between 6-12 frames out at times. Also, the vision seems to be buffering, and thus at times jolts on the screen as it tries to catch up (or back) to the audio.
    Audio is coming out through the Headphones jack on the mac to a small Behringer mixer, where I have monitor speakers for the edit and then wall speakers for the client. So I have been keeping the Audio output to the Adobe Desktop Audio. If I select AJA T-Tap it sends the audio straight to the TV, even despite going back into the system settings.
    In Preferences > Playback, the AJA settings are to Match Sequence and Minimum Buffer. Playing with the m/s frame offsets doesn't seem to make any progress on the issue. And infact if I push it to 500m/s it only worsens the buffering problem I described above.
    I went into the AJA control panel and have made sure everything is set to 1080p25 as our timelines will invariably always be 25fps (Australia).
    But right now I am pretty stuck, and think our slight sync issue was better before I introduced the AJA T-Tap to our system, when we ran the HDMI straight out of the back of the Mac. Only problem now is I put the HDMI back there and I don't get a signal to the tv! 
    Would love any other thoughts or suggestions here.
    Mike.

  • Can I move an audio track in between frames

    Hello All
    I'm on a Mac using CS5.5
    I imported and placed on the timeline a live concert piece that consists of audio and video.
    On the 2nd audio track I placed the studio recorded version of the song.
    I'm trying to exactly sync the two, but the they are like a half a frame apart and I cant get the either of the track to place between or nudge between frames.  I can see this by looking at their audio waveforms of the kick drum.
    I realize that the 1/2 frame delay in visual to audio cues, ie. clapping hands, or dance steps may not be noticeable at 24 frames per second, but if I were at 15 fps or 10 fps it might be, and I just wanted to know if there was a way to nudge an audio track between frames. 
    Or is my only solution to go to an Audio Editing program and shave off a 1/2  frame worth of audio from the front, save and reimport into premiere.
    Thanks In Advance
    Cris is Bliss

    What you want is to enable the non-discoverable and confusingly named "Show Audio Time Units" option for the Timeline panel's flyout menu (upper-right corner).
    Then, you can drag audio clips on a (audio) sample by sample basis.

  • Is there an issue between EXSP24mkII and MOTU Symphonic Instrument?

    I'm using Logic Express 7.2 for three large projects right now. Admittedly I'm pretty new to LE 7.2, since just recently switching over from Digital Performer.
    So, far, LE has been very stable -- UNTIL last week when I loaded in MOTU's Symphonic Instrument. Now, if I have just one or two tracks of Symphonic instrument and nothing else, I'm fine, but if I start adding tracks that have different virtual instruments on them -- say, 2 tracks of Symphonic Instrument and 2 tracks of EXSP24 mkII, then I get frequent crashes.
    The crashes occur as I record my first take on the first new track.
    I can't seem to nail down a particular sequence of events yet, although I think I might be getting pretty close to figuring it out.
    However, before I put in all the effort to figure out the bug, do you know if it's already been discovered? Are there known issues between Symphonic Instrument and Logic or MacIntels, or something?
    Thanks!

    I do have the latest version -- the one that's compatible with the MacIntels. And, when it's the only plug-in, it works great.
    Well, maybe not quite as great as EXSP24mkII, but pretty good. There are still some wierd clicks that happen during playback occasionally, but, VERY fortunately, don't happen when I bounce the tracks down.
    It doesn't seem like there's a known issue, so I'll see if I can isolate a series of actions that cause the problem. If I can nail it down, I'll let you all know.

  • Audio tracks not lined up and no sound

    For some reason my audio tracks for my clips are on different tracks. Most are on a5/a6 and a3/a4 - those play with sound. The audio on a1/a2 is not heard when I play the clip??? When I try to move the audio to different tracks it messes up my video.
    What I want to do is either figure out how to get the audio on a1/a2 to be heard OR move the audio to tracks that I know work without moving the video.
    Can anyone help?

    No mute. Maybe the tracks are off - but I don't think so? I have a screen capture -- although I cannot figure out how to add that to the post - can you do that???
    the only thing that is different is that the source for the ones that don't work A1/A2 havea source of a1/a2 that is connected. Even if I 'break apart' the a1 from the A1 and the a2 from the A2 still no sound...

  • Sync issues between Mac and Mobile Me

    Hi all,
    I'm having issues syncing between MobileMe and my Macbook Pro. It used to work perfectly, but I haven't been able to get it to sync since early August. All the changes I make between my iPhone and MobileMe work fine, but they just wont update with any changes I make on my Macbook. Equally, changes made on iPhone or MobileMe don't show on my laptop anymore.
    I've tried force syncs and resetting sync data (and transferring info from MobileMe) but none work. Is there anything else I can try?
    Thanks,

    You should ask in the MobileMe forums as this forum (iSync) has nothing to do with syncing Macs to MobileMe.

  • Curious... Syncing Issues Between iPhone and iTunes?

    Just curious... the past several months I have noted various concerns around "syncing" between iPhone and iTunes... yet don't recall any mention of whether it occurs between MAC OS or WIN hardware (desktops and or laptops). Furthermore, I am interested if anyone can comment whether these sync issues occurs mostly on TIGER or LEOPARD OS when accessing iTUNES. (Guess I should pay more attention to the noted OS field.
    I ask because I am considering an upgrade to LEOPARD by end of month and don't want to jeopardize my syncing to my iPhone if it is a LEOPARD related issue. Thank you

    I'm running Leopard and I've never experienced any sync issues.
    These discussions include mostly problems, which is what these discussions are for - a user to user support forum for technical support issues and questions.
    Which particular issue are you referring to?
    Before installing a major OS X upgrade such as Leopard over a previous OS X version, it is a good idea to create or update your existing backup of important data stored on your computer's hard drive - including your iTunes library, photos, contact info, calendar events, documents, etc. I've never experienced any problems installing a major OS X upgrade over a previous OS X version, but I always update my computer's backup immediately beforehand to be on the safe side.

  • White space issues between content and footer.

    I am having white space/page length issue between the end of my content and the footer.
    I have read the forums and tried changing the page length minium height to 800 and then I
    unchecked the sticky footer in page properties on both the master page and the content page itself.
    Here's a link to one of my pages.  http://www.ueonline.com/rohs-info.html
    This page has very little content and you can see the white space.
    Any help is appreciated.

    This may be a little dated for a reply, and I'm not 100% sure your issue is the same as mine, but I discovered that unchecking the sticky footer option in site properties solved the problem. I should note that the website I was building for a client was über simple, and while disabling that function solved the headache in my own project, it may incur unwanted results in others, depending on the complexity.
