Set up timeline to process audio dynamics before timeline levels

I'm having some issues getting audio to respond as I expect it to. What I'd like is for a track in my timeline to have a compressor (the Dynamics effect) run on it across the entire track. Then I'd like to be able to use the [] keyboard shortcuts to mix the audio in the timeline on a clip level. What is the best way to set up the timeline to do that?

Why does Premiere Pro CS5 process audio source before exporting clip in AME CS5?

Hello everyone, my first post here. I am currently trying out the trial CS5 Master Collection on my MacBook Pro. I've been using Premiere Pro CS5 to put together family videos. I select a certain portion of a sequence and queue it for export in Media Encoder CS5 in the format H.264 for iPod with video and audio.
Now in AME I have a queue list of about 5 clips from the sequence. But when I hit the Start Queue button, the bottom left of the progress bar states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]" for all 5 clips from the sequence then creates the first output file.
Then it moves to encode the second and again states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]" for all 5 clips of mt sequence then spits out only the second output file.
This continues for the remaining 3 output files. The total sequence length is ~32 minutes with transitions and it takes about 35 minutes to export which is all consumed by the process audio source of the 5 clips in my sequence for 5 separate times.
Is there a certain reason why Media Encoder or Premiere Pro does this process of audio source? Is this process necessary or needed? I experimented with choosing different output formats but the results are the same. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Now that's pretty good follow-up to your first post, and quickly too! Nice detective work.
As you have found, there is basically a Render/Replace operation going on in PrPro, to get the material in the correct form for AME.
Thank you for reporting, as it saved me, and others, from basically saying what you said.
Good luck, and sorry that you beat us to the punch.

Unable to see video & audio tracks as shown in "Create a sequence or timeline and add audio"

hi,
I'm on the https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/learn/start/premiere.html page trying to work through the Create a sequence or timeline and add audio tutorial
And cannot see the Video & Audio, as shown in the bottom right sub-window
I'm using a trial version of Premier pro CC downloaded yesterday. On my mac mini running 10.9.2
does anyone know how to fix this problem?
thanks

Hi,
Error 7 is when a router or the connection to the router is broken in some way.
Some devices have features such as Denial Of Service protection (DoS) that cut a particular Internet Port when it thinks too much data is coming (Presuming it is an attack.)
iChat 5 in Leopard is not capped by the System Preferences > Quicktime Streaming speed (which we used to suggest was set at 1.5Mbps)
It now sees your whole Connection speed and your Upload may be much faster than this.
Your Download is likely to be much faster. However iChat will tend to operate at the lower figure of your Upload.
DoS features are threshold based.
You may now be bumping in to this Threshold where you were not before.
SPI (Stateful packet Inspection) does a different job but has the same effect when it is overloaded by the speed of the data.
If you have either of these features, turn them Off (Disable them)

Can I set up a review process in LiveCycle? Is what I want to do, at all possible? Anyone chime in.

What is the best way to set up a review process, without violating the EULA and having a form that is editable by the end user AFTER it is submitted.
Basically the process will go like this..
1. A user will log onto our website and click a link where he or she downloads a dynamic form.
2. The user will submit the form to multiple parties at once. (Conditional e-mail, depending on what sections in the form are filled out, different people will get the form)
3. The form will get reviewed, and if any changes need to be made, the person that originally filled out the form will need to get it back and make the necessary changes. (The forms are long, so they can't start from scratch).
4. After the changes have been made, the form will be re-submitted for final review.
5. After the form has been finalized, the completed form will be distributed to about 80 people within the company (attached to an e-mail or something) and these people will use the data within the form to populate what they need to.
Additional information:
-I am the only one that has Acrobat 9 Standard OR Professional.
-Everyone else has Reader only
-The forms are dynamic
-They have to be posted to a website
Is this at all possible? I can't figure out how this can be done.
I hope that was clear, please ask if you have questions.

Hi,
You can Reader Enable a form in Acrobat v9 Standard, however note the EULA with the restriction on 500 unique recipients. If it is going out to less than 500 you are not limited to the number of data processes that you undertake on the form.
See discussion here on Reader Enabling a form: http://assure.ly/etkFNU.
You would need to Reader Enable the form before you put it up on the web page.
You can script a regular button to submit the form to user-entered email addresses. See here: http://assure.ly/eUR4wJ. The first email button could be used to send out the form for review. The last section in the form could be a text field to allow reviewers to add comments and a second email button that would issued the amended form back to the originator for further action.
Both email buttons would get their email address(s) from completed fields in the form. In addition the email submission can be set up to return the PDF form and not just the data. IF the form is Reader Enabled then users with Reader will be able to complete this action.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Process audio from mic and play it back. (What is wrong with my code?)

Hi, I am trying to take the audio from the mic (at javasound://0), process it (add the JMF API sample plug in GainEffect.java) and then play the processed data source. The code I have so far is below.
I am getting no errors - compiles fine - but nothing seems to be happening.
The grand goal is to take the audio being captured from the mic and process it in real time using a plug in (not necessarily GainEffect) and also play it back (the processed audio) at the same time.
Where am I going wrong? Thanks!

Ok, I narrowed my code down to this. There doesn't appear to be any infinite loops in the code now, but perhaps I'm wrong? The processor is realizing, and I am creating a player with the data source output from the processor, yet there still is nothing playing... which leads me to think that there is something wrong with my plug in implementation or my processor creation. Do you have any ideas or points in the right direction?

Only audio transferring to timeline for edit

Got a weird situation. Halfway through editing a concert with two cameras, suddenly the rover camera footage will not transfer to timeline. I have the still camera footage and then I put ins/outs in the viewer for rover footage and then drop them into timeline on a track atop other footage. Done this for a few years, no problems. And it is not the entire footage on this project because I already did about 33 minutes of this project like that. Now, when I set in and out in viewer and then drop onto timeline, only the audio tracks of new footage shows up. Any idea why all of the sudden this is happening?Thanks

plang wrote:
Yeah, everything is same as always. Just opened another project and took another clip and placed on top of still camera and works as should. I just started reloading the footage again, maybe it lost timecode when capturing. Usually it will stop the capture if this happens, but can't think of anything else that it could be.
Timecode is not related in any way. The statement implies much.
don't invest much effort in recapturing footage, just do a short clip. Let us know if recapturing a short clip solves this for you.

Is it possible to process audio tracks with compression, eq, etc....in Logic Express, similar to the way you can do it in Protools? If so, how do you do it?

Hello,
Yes, add such effects using the insert slots on the track strip.
Click on the slot, choose your plugin from the list. Double click to bring up its control window to set parameters.

Playing, Pausing, Stopping Audio in a Timeline

I don't use Flash that much so the question may sound simple, but how do I pause audio in a timeline? I have added the audio, play and stop button. When I test it works fine, but I can't figure out how to add the pause button, or the play/pause button.
Thanks.

Set the audio options on "stream" for the timeline. Then - a blank keyframe would do just fine. When you need the audio on, put it again and adjust the start point in the properties panel.

I am having trouble locating such files as PDF's INDD, AI etc. When I view all hidden files and try to open it in the program..it looks like it is really not on the drive. Has anyone come across a solution?

You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type: ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

Adobe Premiere 2.0 Audio Desaparece en Timeline

BUenas a todos, nuevamente.
El siguiente problema, es con el audio.
Al insertar un audio en el timeline, perfecto, se oye estupendamente.
Cierro proyecto, vuelvo abrir el proyecto, y por arte de magia, el audio o no se oye o solo se oye por un canal.
El archivo de audio, por si el mp3 pudiera fallar, es un WAV.
Aun así, sigue igual, y lo mjeor de todo, es que si lo vuelves a reemplazar por el original, entonces, solo se oye por un canal o sigue sin oirse.
Alguien tiene el mismo problema?
Gracias a todos

I have something for you to try.
What did you use for project preset? I am assuming PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 since there is no DSLR 1080p setting in version 8.0/8.0.1.
(Did you say what the recorder is offering in the way of video compression to go along with the .mp4 container format?)
Take that Timeline and export it to a file saved to the computer hard drive.
Share/Mobile Phones and Players/Apple iPd and iPhone/and preset = iPod and iPhone - High Quality.
Under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset, have your Export Settings look as follows:
Then upload that file (H.264.mp4) to You Tube at the YouTube web site. What is the quality of the uploaded video?
We will be watching for the results.
Thanks.

Pulling Hair Out! Need Help: Adobe Prem 6.0 Distorted Audio playback in Timeline

O/S = Windows 2000 Pro
Adobe Premier 6.0
I am in the process of compiling a project in Adobe Premier 6.0, where, up until yesterday, it was playing back perfectly in the Timeline window. Unfortunately now, when I preview the project in the Timeline window, the audio has become distorted, out of sync, and is now 'slower' than the video footage (sounds a bit like a Darlek!), this also happens when I view a clip in the Monitor window. I closed this project down and started a new one, importing a seperate 'audio only' file, but had the same problem. I then opened a previous project that has always played back perfectly but that too had the same audio/video problem. I have checked the frame rate and the speed and both are correct and ok. Incidentely, the audio and video are in perfect sync when I play any clip in the Project Window!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can someone help me. I am pulling my hair out on this one!
Thank you.

Encore 1.5 -problem getting audio on the timeline

hi - newbie question!!!- i am trying to add audio to my mpeg2 video clip on the timeline in encore 1.5 - i believe you drag and drop the asset from the projects tab into the timeline but when i open the timeline and click the projects tab the timeline dissapears so i am unable to drop audio into the timeline.
is there any way of ensuring both tabs are open at the same time to allow this ?

What workspace do you have set up?
In our installation of Encore 1.5 it is perfectly possible to have the project assets list and a timeline both open at the same time.

One track of Audio in the timeline

I am only getting one track of audio in the timeline when I drag my clip from the viewer. In the viewer the audio is in stero, but when I drag it to the timeline it only one channel. Is there a setting that I change to get two channel of audio in the timeline?
Thanks for the help
JEFF

Right (or control + click) over in the patching bay at the left of the timeline and see if it sees both a1 and a2. Assign the one you can't see to a patch and that might bring it back.

Only one audio channel in timeline?

I’m working in FCP 6.06 and I don’t how or why it’s happened but I only have one audio track in the timeline. The audio is set to dual track mono. I’ve tried copying and pasting the track from channel A1 to A2 but it doesn’t work. I assume there is some important reason mono would be displayed in two tracks. Is there some way for me to fix this?

Yes, it’s centered already. Very strange. Don’t know what I did when I brought two-channel mono from one sequence to another that caused it to become a single mono instead of dual mono. If the quality does not suffer then I guess it makes no practical difference as long as the sound is coming equally from both speakers.
Thank you both for helping me out.

Audition Marker Points: Can a Midi/USB trigger be set up to place "Markers" on to the timeline during a live recording?

Audition Marker Points: Can a Midi/USB trigger be set up to place "Markers" on to the timeline during a live recording?

Or you can find a suitable controller such as the original Red Rover or something that supports Mackie control protocol.
Some years ago I built a simple remote controller by buying a cheap USB keyboard and throwing away the keys just keeping the controller chip with it's USB connection. To this I added my own bank of a few push buttons. The most complicated bit of the process was working out the key matrix to trigger the required keyboard ascii commands.
