Setting audio transitions in to out??

Say I've got 40 audio edit points. Can I apply the default audio transition to every point on my timeline at once...say between my in and out point?
Learned this on Media Composer and it was very handy....just having a hard time finding it on CS6....which I have enjoyed learning.

Select the audio clips, then go to Sequence>Apply Default Transitions to Selection.

    Thanks for that info! Even in my time answering questions on iMovie Discussion Group, I never had a good understanding of when and how Optimize Movie came into play. I always would import as Optimized and Large Size and figured that was good enough. But knowing you got much, much more flexibility doing it the way you describe gives me a much better understanding of the different routes you can take into the Event Library.

  • Audio crossfade appears inactive (grayed out) when adding it to audio transitions

    Not sure what I am doing wrong here...
    I cannot directly insert audio crossfades into transitions on my audio timeline withought going to the transition point and then clicking sequence > apply audio transition from the main menu. But even then once it is added it appears inactive (grayed out) and I cannot change the lengh or style of the fade...
    Another thing that keeps happening is the program keeps crashing. I get the pinwheel of death and I have to restart the program manually. I dont have any other programs open and my computer is quite beefed up so I don't know what is causing this..
    Thanks for your help!

  • Is there a way to re-set the default fade-in/out setting for all slides?

    Hi all, I don't know why all objects on all the slides of my captivate project are set as transition-> fade in/fade out. The result is that every single slide fades out after 3 seconds, even before the learners can finish reading.
    The only solution I know is to change each single object from transition->fade in/fade out to No Transitions. However, it takes thousands of clicks.
    Does anyone know that there is a one-step solution to get rid of this default fade in/fade out settings?
    Or was there something that I did wrong which caused this default fade in/fade out?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi all, not only are my objects set to no transition, I set the object defaults to rest of slide rather than specific time (located in the same window above. That way slide duration does not matter (unless you are doing autoplay and not using navigation.) This way when my audio lengthens the timeline all my objects are there for the full duration
    Also, another tip, once you have set your objects styles and preferences the way you like them you can export both, and import them into any new project that you wish to use them in rather than reset all the time.

  • How to create an audio transition

    It may be my ears to blame, but I cannot hear any difference whatever, with any of the audio transitions.  Further, I don't see any way to make adjustments in the adjustment panel either... or don't understand how to use it possibly.
    To get serious fading I have to resort to the rubberband technique and end up setting 4 keyframs.
    Am I just not understanding how to use the supplied audio transitions... should I hear some really noticable change if I use one, or not.
    Maybe I need to make my own, but I could use a little help on that.  I'd like to end up with a serious dip in volume as the cursor crosses from one clip to another.
    Its a real time sync if you have a lot of clips, to have to set and adjust 4 keyframes at each junction.

    Harry,
    It sounds like you want the equivalent of an audio "dip to black"; in other words, you want the outgoing audio to ride from 100% volume down to 0% volume, and then the incoming audio to ride from 0% back to 100% volume. Unfortunately, there is no built-in audio transition that does this--they all function as crossfades with the volume from both audio clips being mixed during the entire duration of the transition.
    Thankfully, there's a pretty easy and versatile solution, though it does involve a little setup legwork on your part. When in doubt, roll yer own
    Drop an audio clip or a video clip with audio into a sequence, and go to the beginning of the clip.
    With the clip selected, create a fade in using two volume keyframes, to the duration you desire. You already mentioned that you know how to rubberband the volume, and that's all you're doing here. You can either set this up in your sequence, or the effects control panel, whichever is easier for you. You can also Control+click the keyframes to turn them into Bezier keyframes, so that you can ease in and out of the keyframes, if you like.
    In the effects control panel, under Audio Effects, right-click on the word "Volume", and select "Save Preset". In the dialog that appears, name your preset (i.e. Volume Fade In 1 second), select Anchor to In Point, and add a description if you like. When you hit OK, the preset will be saved in your effects bin under Presets, where you can categorize them later.
    With this done, select the keyframes you created and delete them, or toggle the stop watch on and off to remove the keyframes. If you do the latter, you'll need to hit the keyframe button to remove the keyframe that is automatically keyframed.
    Repeat steps 2 and 3 above but instead of creating a fade in, create a fade out using the same techniques. Save the preset again using the same procedure, but selected Anchor to Out Point, and change the name to reflect that it's a fade out.
    You'll now have two custom fades in your Presets bin. You can select all of your clips that you want to apply the fades to and drag first one preset and then the other onto all of the selected clips. The reason you need to create two presets instead of one is because you probably want to maintain the duration of your fades, and the only way you can do this is to select the "Anchor to" options. If you created a fade in and fade out on one clip and selected Scale, the duration of the fades would be based on the duration of the clip; not likely what you want.
    Hope that helps a bit...

  • How to set default transition duration?

    I can't believe Premiere would be so lacking in something so basic that is available in every other NLE I've used, but I can't find a way to set a default audio transition that also allows me to set half a second and not the 1 second default. I don't want to apply a lot of cross fades and then having to go to each of them and typing 15 and enter.
    Also, there is an easy way to save any filter as a user preset, including combinations of filters as one preset, but the same is not possible for transitions, audio or video, am I missing something?

    Jim Simon wrote:
    Maybe I misunderstand but...you can.  Right click any transition to set it as the default.  Alan told you in post 1 how to set the duration.
    So...what's the gripe?
    I'm talking about saving transition presets with any duration you want, as well as different types of transitions, like having a cross dissolve that is half a second, another that is 2 seconds, a dip to black that is three, and an exponential fade that is 2 seconds, etc, all accessible in the top Presets folder, instead of having to dig inside a folder that is inside another folder in the effects tab. This is something you can do easily in every other NLE I can remember, Edius, FCP classic, and Vegas if I remember correctly, but I haven't used the last one in a while, although I remember clearly that you can set a script in it to do anything you want, including a fade in and fade out. Why isn't something so basic in Premiere, especially when you can save any filter as a preset? I understand that not all features can be implemented at once, but this is something that has been on NLEs for at least the past ten years. Isn't it about time that Premiere catches up to the rest?
    I totally agree with you. Right now the way transitions works (doesn't work, actually) is completely utterly retarded.
    You can only set ONE default transition. Only ONE, because there is NEVER going to be a time when you want to frequently use 2, 3, 4 different transitions. NEVER.
    You have to dig into the *system preferences* menu to set the duration of that ONE transition. And you can only set ONE duration for ONE transition. There will never ever be a time anyone would ever want to have a few frequent transitions with different durations for each. No, we all only ever need ONE transition with ONE duration for EVERY SINGLE PROJECT WE DO.
    Can you tell that I'm frustrated?

  • Can you make an audio transition in Motion 5? If so, how?

    I remember before I upgraded to FCPX the previous version of Final Cut had audio transitions (a cross fade 0Db and a cross fade +3Db). I have not needed an audio transition in Final Cut until now and I couldn't find one in FCPX. So I set out to build one in Motion 5 (I have experience in creating my own generators and transitions in motion) but I could not seem to figure out how to work with audio. If someone could please give me some pointers or let me know if this is even possible that would be great. Thanks, Jobstevenson.

    Hi
    Motion is a graphics tool, and not designed to work with audio.
    You will want to look at the manual for FCPX to find out how to do audio dissolves. I'm guessingt he audio will need to be in a Storyline for you to beable to do this. The other wa is the have the audio as connected clips and simply add a fade up and and down to the clip end and start.

  • Can't Reset Default Audio Transition

    My default audio transition (cross fade) has been replaced by "None" and I can't select "Set Default" to reset it. I've tried manually applying the transition then selecting it but "Set Default" is still grayed out. I first noticed the problem when the shortcut optioncommandT stopped working.
    This has been driving me nuts for a while now I'm hoping someone can tell me how the default could get deleted and how to reset it.
    I'm running FCP 5.04 on a Dual 2GHz G5 PowerPC.
    Thanks,
    Shelby

    I still don't know if this can be done from the Effects drop down menu but I was able to reset the default in the Effects tab in the Browser window, which I rarely use.
    Thanks.

  • StreamigHow to get audio component of Video out of AirPort/stereo using MBA

    Ok will some one help me with this please:
    I was experimenting with streaming video. I was watching Leo Laporte's TWiT Live show
    http://twit.tv/roz13
    where he was talking to Roz Savage the woman who is rowing across the Pacific alone ! This was live feed (including rower's audio from the middle of the ocean); very cool ! Laugh but she is half way to Hawaii and she has already rowed the Atlantic (no sail). The show is called Roz Rows. Leo checks in with her several times a week. Past shows are on iTunes.
    Ok I got off track but she is truly awesome in a time when that word is used to describe somebody's socks.
    My happy MacBook Air experience to get off the track again: On battery I was watching the live video stream and my iStat showed heat ~55 C and fan 2800 rpm very cool !
    I was getting down to 25% battery so I plugged in the charger cable. The temp climbed slowly but predictably to the high heat side of the scale (68 C 6200 rpm) and stabilized. Once again hot but I am happy.
    Interesting how cool it was before hooking up charging lead. I am so happy about that !
    Now we get to the question ta da !
    I want to know how to get the audio for the streaming video to come out of the audio system connected to my Airport Express. Listening to music on iTunes it works fine. Watching an iTunes purchased TV episode on iTunes it _does not_ (the sound comes out of the computer speaker) no matter the setting on the low right hand corner of the window. Perhaps I should be in the iTunes or AirPort discussions but wanted to post positive experience here with streaming video using MacBook Air.

    it might be possible using airfoil or similar utility...
    http://www.rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/
    ...but you will probably find that audio/video are badly out of sync due to the latency on the streamed audio
    if the video is playing in something like vlc you can compensate by adjusting the audio/video sync (although it is fiddly and drifts because the latency varies) but in itunes you can't

  • Audio Transitions not working properly in Final Cut Pro 5.1.4

    I am noticing that I can't change the audio transitions on the timeline as I used to be able to do. Now I get a prompt to go to the Browser and select the audio transitions there which is not how I've done it previously. Before, I just clicked on the timeline audio clip, made a transition and then typed the duration of the transition in the Viewer. So, I'm wondering if I should trash the plist for FCP or do something else? The video transitions seem to work fine as they always have.
    Thanks for any help!

    Let me explain this better. When I click on an audio clip in the timeline I get this prompt:
    No default transition to add. Please set a default transition in the Effects Tab in the Browser before performing this command.
    I've never had to do this before, so I wonder if anyone knows why this suddenly is happening?

  • How to set the transition duration of a slide in keynote with applescript

    hi
    how to set the transition duration of a slide in keynote with applescript
    i made an applescript script which converts a numbers file to a keynote presentation
    figured out how to set the transitions but cant find how to set the time
    +set appTransition of slideTransition of current slide to "apple:dissolve"+
    anyone?

    you can send keystrokes to invoke menu commands via shortcuts but as for transition time not sure. You've check the dictionary right? Scripting support is very limited in KN.

  • What are the iTunes digital audio levels in and out

    I am having a lot of trouble with finding out and setting the audio levels in and out of iTunes.
    Digital audio has 16bits at '1' with an analog signal level of +12dB, 24bit has all'1's at +18dB. Making the overhead capability for CD 16bit 12dB and that for HD 24bit 18dB.
    I would like to record (using SoundStudio) a set of standard audio tones from 20-20kHz with digital levels of "all 1's" 16bit, or +12 dB analog level, "all 1's" 24bit ditto, and the same for levels of analog 0dB (-12dB digital) for 16bit and 0dB(-18dB digital) for 24bit.
    What I am finding is that if I get Sound Studio to inert a tone at what it calls 0dB, save it as AIFF, then the output it from iTunes I get a much higher level, around +8dB or so!
    Any ideas?

    As an addition to my first question. I asked the makers of Sound Studio about levels. They tell me that the Mac standard is to have all '1's in the digital stream defined as 0dB.
    Which helps as I can now record a tone at the CD level of -12dB and the HD audio level of -18dB. And if I make recordings I know to keep the input levels well into the green, not yellow and definitely not up to the red.
    As you say the output of iTunes is boosted, and from my measurements this boost is in the analog circuitry and is about +8dB.
    I woul dnot recommend turing down the iTunes volume control as this brings in the digital volume reduction, which depends on the algorithm they have implemented. This is not so bad for iTunes as the Audio Core software works at 32bit and can handle 16bit volume changes fairly well. But on the iPad it is different as iOS is only 16bit audio so the volume algorithm is poor. So always leave the volume at maximum and turn down your HiFi volume control!
    Or use a digital output to an external DAC as the iTunes volume control is then disabled. Set Audio MIDI for 24bit output and you are ready to go with HD Audio.

  • "Dip to black" audio transition?

    Anyone know where I could find an audio transition that will do basically the same thing as a dip to color video transition? Just need one clips audio to fade out, then the next one fade in.

    Actually, if you spent more time with the manuals and software, we might not need to look at this post.
    Notice that FCP gives you 2 default audio transitions - crossfades ( +3db, or 0db). Choose 0bd. It's also in the browser under effects, drag it from there. This should give you what you want but it's not ideal by far, needs rendering and avoids keyframing, which is pretty crucial to editing.
    If you feel static it's probably because people read posts and wonder how someone can edit a sequence and not know these things.
    Peace

  • Missing Video & Audio transitions in FPC 4.5

    Hello I recently replaced my HD and reinstalled all my Apps. After downlaoding 2 hrs of video on my scratch drive and getting ready to edit I noticed my effects tab is missing and when I look in the menu under effects (specifically video and audio transitions ) they are all greyed out as if unavailable ( which they are ). I reinstalled FPC and ran the SW updates and reopened the project but there are still no video and audio transition effects available.
    Can any one help pleaase.
    Many thanks.

    There's a way to get it back. Just can't remember off the top of my head. I'll be back in the office tomorrow and see if I can figure it out. but in the meantime.... Is there an item in the windows menu (if there is a windows menu) for effects. If so, call it up and then drag it back into the browser. Worst case scenario, get fcprescue (do a search here and make sure you get the correct version for fpc 4.5) and delete the preferences. The effects tab in the browser will return as it's part of the default preferences.

  • Creating a Custom Audio Transition

    My boss has a client that is not satisfied with the audio fades that FCP comes with. He has created a fade-in and a fade-out that the client is happy with by using audio keyframes to manually control the action. He now needs to apply this to the tips and tails of about 70 different audio tracks. Does anyone know how to create an audio transition such as the cross fades that already are installed with FCP? I'm still pouring through the manuals and this forum but it's been hours and I haven't found anything helpful yet! Thanks for the help

    If the levels are even throughout the rest of each clip (except for the fade-ins and fade-outs), do the keyframing on one clip then copy it. Next, select all other clips that you want to apply the fades to and right-click on one and select Paste Attributes. When the window opens, click the button next to Audio-Levels.
