Thwarted in trying to Edit my Premiere Pro Project in Soundbooth

Hello,
I'd like to add a voiceover track to my film, as part of a director's cut.
But when I try to export it via the Premiere Pro Edit menu, my option is greyed out and I cannot select it.
Any thoughts? 
I have my project loaded and the timeline selected, per this screenshot:
Any thoughts?

I'd like to add a voiceover track to my film, as part of a director's cut.
You will not be able to add any extra tracks in Soundbooth for commentary.
Soundbooth is limited in function to only making tweaks to the single
audio file you have sent using "Edit in Soundbooth".
For more audio editing functionality including multiple tracks, you will
need Audition (now packaged with CS5.5 Production Premium).
Instead, you should duplicate your sequence, rename it "Commentary Version"
and then edit your voiceover track in Premiere... and forget about using Soundbooth.
But when I try to export it via the Premiere Pro Edit menu, my option is greyed out and I cannot select it.
Has the audio clip in question already been edited in Soundbooth?
If yes, that is why the option is greyed out.

  • I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function works

    I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function, render workspace function, export file are still operational. How can I fix it so I may complete my assignment?
    Besides DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the only software on the machine. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System on AMD FX 6100 six-Core Processor at 3.31gHz and 32 GB RAM memory. There are two SLI-bridged GTX680 NVidia cards.
    The software was very stable for the last six months, working with 720P proxy files from 2.5K masters (Blackmagic Design Camera). I am working on a feature-length project that exceeds 1000 edits. I have broken the file into 2 one hour segments.
    I have deactivated the software before reinstalling the entire OS from scratch. PP6 was very stable for 48 hours. Then the freezing space bar returns. After a dozen strokes into the project, same problem.  I have made cache files store next to originals, I have deleted preview files if they were corrupted and causing instability. Am I missing something?
    I have Microsoft Security Essentials for virus protection. I double checked the memory for damage/defect. Nothing says that the motherboard or other components are damaged.
    I am in film competition overseas and need to have deliverables in less than a month's time.  I lost the last two weeks troubleshooting and this crisis came at an inopportune moment of the project.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Still getting software freezes but found a way to mitigate for the mean time.
    Upon launching Adobe Premiere Pro, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to launch TaskManager as well.
    You will want to highlight Adobe QT32 Server.exe
    Right click and select "End Process Tree"
    You will get considerable stability in the program, long enough to get timing of cuts done. Be sure to save often.
    If the program freezes, do not hit Save. You definitely want to avoid saving the corruption into your TimeLine
    CTRL-ALT-DEL to relaunch the TaskManager and highlight Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
    Right-click to "End Process"
    No need to reboot the whole system; just launch Premiere Pro again and continue with the session. Note that your work reverted to Last Save.
    Hope this helps until the bug is fixed.

  • I can edit in Premiere Pro CC streaming?

    I understand that I can edit in Premiere Pro CC streaming.

    Hi, Is there a way to increase the maximum size of a download? I'm trying to download Adobe premiere pro (1GB) and I'm getting an error message that says my maximum download is 10 MG

    That's between you and your internet service provider.  By the way, you posted to the 10.3 forum.  10.3 can't run on your MacBook Pro. Don't forget the following facts:
    b= bit
    B = Byte
    8 bits in a byte
    A typical DSL connection has 1 Mbps speed or 128 kBps speed.
    At that speed
    1 minute gives you 7.5 MB
    10 minutes gives you 75 MB
    100 minutes gives you 750 MB
    A typical cable connection can be 5 times faster although some are 30 times faster.
    A typical fiber connection is 15 times faster and some are 50 times faster.
    Ask what your speed is rated at.

  • Bringing Premiere Pro project into After Effects

    I tried importing Premiere Pro projects to After Effects, but I only got the various files, not the timeline. I just watched a tutorial about Dynamic Link, but when I clicked Adobe Dynamic Link/New After Effects composition in Premiere, I got a layer that was all black, with no sound. I have CS3 Production Premium and Windows XP Media Center SP2.
    Right now, I just want to keep what I edited in Premiere, but I get better quality video if I export it to H.264 MOV in After Effects than anything I've found in Premiere. I can't understand why that's so, but until I find something just as good in Premiere, I want to save everything in After Effects.

    Create a project and a comp. Copy the timeline from Premiere Pro and paste it into the timeline of After Effects.

  • Pink lines in Premiere Pro projects

    I am getting these pink lines in my Premiere Pro projects. This is a shot from the program monitor of a current edit.
    It appears randomly and on very different projects of very different spec.

    Thanks.

  • Is it possible to export, and include AE compositions used within a Premiere Pro project, via project manager?

    I've several Premiere Pro CC 2014 projects I want to relocate via project manager (one at a time). They're excessive in size (many long and unused footage files), so "Create New Trimmed Project" is the setting-option, within project manager, most attractive. BTW I love how project manager does this... However, when I check on its new location, I don't see any linked AfterEffects files. Fine, I try the other setting "Collect Files and Copy to New Location". This option allows me to now copy everything including rendered scenes featuring my AE compositions (and a lot of excess, unused files)... but still no AE files!
    Is it possible to export a Premiere Pro project, excluding unused files, yet include all used files... especially linked files such as AE compositions?

    Though not exactly the solution I seek, I've tried an alternative approach... it works (if anyone's interested)... but my original question still stands.
    Alternative approach (and probably the only option now):
    When I copy & trim my Premiere Pro project via project manager to its new location, I can open the new file and see the track editor now includes broken links to AfterEffects compositions. Since I don't wish to relink these to the current .AEP file, I may package** the original AE project to a location near my newly-located Premiere Pro project folder. To do this, I open the original .AEP file containing any compositions linked to my original Premiere Pro project, and use File < Dependencies < Collect Files. This feature copies all files (and a new .AEP copy) from this AE project to my newly selected destination (as long as no files are missing).
    So at this point, when I open my newly-located PP project, I can relink the broken AfterEffects composition links in PP to the new .AEP file. Yay!
    **package (for those unaware) is the term used within Adobe InDesign. This feature gathers all linked files that makeup the overall design and layout, and copies into a new folder.

  • What is the most efficient way to use Remove Grain from After Effects on large Premiere Pro project?

    I've tried to use Dynamic Linking both ways but it doesn't the effects don't appear no matter how dramatic I make them. Why couldn't there just be Remove Grain in Premiere Pro so I wouldn't have to go through the headache of figuring this out. I've tried importing the Premiere Pro project into After effects where everything comes up and, since there's so many files, it doesn't seam feasibly or convenient at all. Trying Dynamic Link vice versa didn't lend results either. What can I do??? Projects range from about a half hour to an hour and a half. Thank you.

    The situations are well lit; it might be lack of knowledge on the camera settings itself.
    Sort that and your workflow issue dissapears instantly.
    There's nothing more efficient?
    Yep...read above... but ...any Plugin. eg Neat Video... will take long processing time.
    Fixing grain..actually "noise"...is always an image  degrading process as well.  It blurs!

  • Keyframes in Speedgrade with a Premiere Pro project

    I'm using Speedgrade to grade clips in a Premiere Pro project.  I'm trying to adjust a primary layer grade across a clip using different keyframes.  It is not working: when I set up a second keyframe, I try to make adjustments to the offset, gamma, and gain in the second keyframe and, while the sliders slide, I'm not seeing any results in either the clip or the scopes.
    It's working fine when I create a Speedgrade project.  But it's not working with an imported Premiere Pro project.
    I can't find any indication of a bug related to this.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    I've submitted the bug report. 
    Here's a bit more information about my environment:
    MacOS 10.10.1.
    Macbook Pro Retina (mid 2012)
    2.7 GHz Intel Core I7
    16 GM memory
    Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    I have some 3rd party plugins installed in Premiere, but none used in the test case.  And in fact I can reproduce the problem with a fresh project by following these steps:
    1. Create a new project in Premiere.
    2. Import a video file.  (The video file is one that I recorded with my Canon 5D mk iii, but the original problem was using files gotten from a GoPro, so that detail doesn't seem to matter.)
    3. Create a new sequence.
    4. Take a 3 second clip from the video file and put it in the sequence.
    5. Take a different 2 second clip from the video file and add it to the sequence.
    6. Use the File/Direct Link to Speedgrade menu option to load the sequence in Speedgrade.
    7. In Speedgrade, select the first clip.  Make changes to the Offset and Gain brightness sliders for that clip.
    8. Select the second clip.  Position the cursor over the first clip and hit "c" to copy the grade changes from the first clip to the second.
    9. Position the read head about midway through the second clip.
    10. Hit the diamond to add a keyframe.
    11. Make changes to the offset and gain brightness sliders at that keyframe.
    12. Hit the keyframe left arrow to move to the initial keyframe in the clip.
    13. Notice that the brightness changes made on the original keyframe show in this keyframe.  This is unexpected behavior.
    14. Attempt to make changes to the offset and gain brightness sliders at this keyframe.  The sliders slide, but there are no changes to the clip itself.  If you bring up the scopes at this point, making changes to the sliders don't change the scope values either.

  • Premiere pro project suddenly degraded

    My 50-minute Premiere Pro project suddenly degraded between work sessions. It contains mixed footage - mov files the smallest and the sequence settings match that - and dv footage.
    It looked perfect, but when it was opened to resume work on another day them image quality had degraded badly. When rendered It plays ok but is degraded in pause. Color correction is now impossible.
    I hope you can help.

    For starters, you can't perform a proper color correction using the built in monitors.  They are not designed to show you an accurate image, as you're now discovering.  You MUST get the signal off the computer and onto a properly calibrated TV.  This will ensure you're seeing the signal accurately, which is the first step in color correction.  Trying to remove too much red that was put there by an inaccurate display is an exercise in futility.
    Having said that, click the wrench under the Program Monitor and make sure Playback Resolution is set to full.

  • Importing Premiere Pro project into After Effects ???

    When I import a Premiere Pro project into After Effects, it splits every shot onto a new track, ending up with a couple of hundred tracks at the end.
    Is there a way to avoid this ?
    Particularly, since I'd want to keep the option of bringing the project file back in Premiere for further editing.
    My colorist suggested that I nest reels of my timeline and split it that way so that when he imports it he has nests on one timeline and the multiple tracks in each of those nests. Still, this feel very clunky.

    An editor at work was using our Avid to do a grade on a short promo and I
    wanted to see what I could do in After Effects. So when he was out of the
    office I exported the timeline as an AAF and copied the OMFI media. When I
    brought the project into After Effects I ended up with a massive number of
    layers and freaked at first at the idea of doing anything with it.
    However I thought about it again and decided to precompose all the layers,
    as this gave me just one layer to work with. I then added a couple of
    Adjustment Layers above it; one with a Levels effect added and the other
    with HSL. I also added Masks to the Adjustment Layers so I could vignette
    any effect.
    The key to working like this was to use Hold Keyframes at the beginning of
    each new shot for each effect, Mask Shape and Feather. I could then adjust
    that shot, scrub to the next shot add new Hold Keyframes adjust that shot
    and so on. When I wanted to repeat any effect settings on a shot, I just cut
    and pasted the relevant keyframes. Mixes across shots can be tricky but you
    can always go back to work with the original shots on their separate layers
    if you need to.
    I ended up with a quick grade that stood up nicely against the one done on
    the Avid and I only had work with 3 layers on my timeline!

  • After Effects export as Premiere Pro project weird PAL/NTSC problem

    This post is not a question. It's here, because I've found a solution and want to share with You.
    I've noticed a strange problem during export from AE to PR.
    Ok, here I go.
    AE = After Effects CS3
    PR = Premiere Pro CS3
    My AE project is D1/DV PAL Widescreen. It is a sequence of slideshow with some video effects applied. I needed that sequence in PR. I was happy to find a new feature - export as premiere pro project (new for me - i am pretty rookie ;). Thaks to this feature I have saved most of my disk space that is always to low. But, like every first try, this one was not perfect too. I had two problems.
    Problem no 1.
    I opened exported project in PR and saw message like "video effect AE.CC COMPOSITE not present".
    Whole composition was working perfectly except that one video effect that was fundamental for this project.
    *Solution was as easy as it can be. I've just copied that effect from AE plugin folder to PR plugin folder. It worked for this.
    Problem no 2
    Like says AE Help "When you export an After Effects project as an Adobe Premiere Pro project, Adobe Premiere Pro uses the settings from the first composition in the After Effects project for all subsequent sequences."
    Project settings in PR was exactly D1/DV PAL Widescreen. So where is the problem You ask?
    Therefore why my Timeline works in NTSC 29,97 frame rate if all settings match PAL 25 frame rate?! I don't know.
    *Solution to fix this annoying bug is to create a new project in PR with all settings for D1/DV PAL Widescreen in this case. Than just import that PR project exported from AE. Now timeline works like it should in PAL frame rate.
    That's it.
    I hope this post is helpful, because I didn't find any answer for this here in Adobe forum.

    Who's says that Microsoft can't debug?
    I used msconfig, first disabling startup items, -same result.
    Enabled all startup items, disabled all non-microsoft services - AE worked!
    I re-enabled each service in turn until AE crashed.
    The fault was related to an item for a video streaming device I have in my house.  It was Monsoon-multimedia's Vulkano Service.  Sometimes under the old name of Hava, this is an app that acts like a sling-box to send my Cable TV to my screen.  It does load a couple of virtual devices in device manager, and uses a proprietary codec.
    I uninstalled the vulkano streamer application and rebooted the external Vulkano device.  I reinstalled the Vulkano and verified it connected to the device and could stream.  Once it did, I tried AE again and IT WORKED!
    I wonder if simply rebooting the Vulkano would have fixed it.  Its like opening the garage door to turn on the refridgerator.
    Thanks for the help!
