Audio stereo and Mono - why?

I tink a feature the more annyoying of the first is the way it handles the audio tracks.  I'm curious to know if it's just me or if someone else out there he is disturbed by the same thing.

I work on show a mini with a lot of music, sound effects and often 4 different microphones for actors at the same time.  Given that I have record 2 microphones on each cam (R and L), I like to import everything as mono clips so it breaks to the top of my audio and I can label that is on what layer/track.

Sometimes, I find myself with 20 different audio tracks.  Not because I NEED 20 layers, but because some of my SFX and stereo music and others such as mono and I cannot put a mono-clip on a stereo clip, and vice versa.  This is the part that drives me crazy.  I might need to add a second 1 swoosh SFX for some text coming and I must go to the layer 12 (scroll down way), when just below the video, there are 11 empty layers 'available', but cannot be used because they do not accept the placement of this track because it is in stereo when the clip is mono.  Make sense?  So, really, instead of 20 tracks, I could EASILY shoot with 10 first HAD a way to not be so fussy on the question of whether a track is stereo or mono and capable of handling just everything you dish it.

Premiere Pro finally got away with format-specific effects.  Now, instead of 3 fill effects (mono, stereo and 5.1), it is fair to fill, and it works on any track.  It wouldn't hurt if PP is went even further in the next version and went agnostic on the tracks themselves.

Make ' em all mono, with a right of option 'direction' in the header.

  • Change audio from stereo to mono I have 14 items!

    Hello world! I have a problem that I really need help!

    I just changed my first Pro CC for first items 14 and I'm using a Windows pc.

    Due to a sound problem, I would like to change the audio from stereo to Mono, due to a problem with noise of crackling on portable devices using micro RODE NTG - 2. (for more information on the problem of mic check this video Audio problems using a Rode NTG - 2 condenser shotgun microphone. - YouTube). This problem is solved through audio from stereo to mono installation and I did it with success on first Pro CC by hitting shift + g key and then to change to mono - I followed by reading this comment (below) on a video about this problem...

    Use the right to fill with the left or left fill with right audio effect. This will take one of your stereos and apply it on the two channels.

  • In the first 11 elements, can I convert a stereo, one mono audio track?

    The microphone that I use on my digital SLR when video recording is a mono microphone (Canon 5 d MkII dslr, Hama lapel MIC). When I import video in first items 11, audio playback in mono - is there a way I can convert the audio in stereo?

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the forum.

    In fact, you cannot convert a mono source in true stereo, because it requires two microphones., but you can convert it to 2 mono channels. The difference is that you have the same signal on both channels, unlike stereo ture, where signals differ according to the micro system.

    According to Steve, you can fill out to the left, or fill right, or you can just drag another Instance of your Audio Clip to a different Audio track mono. In the Audio Mixer Panel, you can pan to the left and one right.

    Also, just like pre your mono 2 channels output mix, it will give you 2-Channel Audio signal even in the two ways, if you let the Pan toward the Center.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A-L70-12W - HDMI only audio in stereo and 5.1 not send

    Hello

    I have a question about my laptop's HDMI output.

    When I connect an HDMI cable to my tv and cable toslink from my TV to my receiver, my laptop still sends 2.0 sound to my TV.

    The TV I use is the LG 42LV3400-ZA, and he is certified Dolby Digital.

    I have there any possibility of a 5.1 signal via this laptop HDMI port?

    Thanks in advance.

    HDMI offers digital sound output means that the stereo and 5.1 would be financed.
    The question is if you have used an audio source that supports 5.1, and if your playback software has been set to 5.1 too.

    There is usually only one place where you can check the audio setup for HDMI output port.
    This can be checked in Control Panel of-> sound-> the Read tab

    Here you will find the different devices that are available for the audio output.

    But as I said above: important are the settings in the software you use for audio playback.

    So, I'm bad to think 5.1 sequence option is what you wanted. I'm sorry. You want to separate the 6 channels. Then with your initial configuration, your Audio Track mixing table appears as the posted screenshot?

  • Extract the audio channels to mono files - does not

    When I right click a file .wav stereo in the files Viewer, why are the "extract audio channels to mono files -" option grayed out?

    It worked for me a few weeks before a hearing CC 8.1.0.162 update.  I resorted to using version CS6 where it always works.

    Well, even if I don't use it there, I agree with you - it does not work and is grayed out, and there is no reason that I can see. It still works fine in the Edit menu on the same file, and also you can assign a keyboard shortcut, so you have not really lost all features, even if I would say it was a bug...

    I'll connect it with a reference to this thread.

  • How to record audio Microphone and PC?

    I've been looking for everywhere tutorials on how to do it, but don't can find videos of audition 3.

    I want to record my mic and PC audio at the same time (Yes, my PC supports "Stereo Mix").

    Thank you!

    Just hearing records everything that is given by your sound card or audio interface so you don't have to sort the parameters he who send the microphone and the audio PC to the record side of your system.

    How to do this will depend on exactly what your audio device and how you set the ranges.

    Once you have the end of the sound card put in place, the hearing is easy though.  Go to hardware edition/preferences/Audio and, if all is good on your sound card, it must appear as an option in the menu dropdown for entry 'default'.  You can also route the default output however you want to listen to things.

    A couple of points... the 'Device class' box allows you to specify the type of driver you are using.  Unless you have a specialist audio interface, it'll probably be Ms. also, the sampling frequency that you define in hearing must match what you set when you were selecting things on your audio card/interface.

    I don't want to end on a Downer, but many sound cards these days this force you to save on the thing or the other and cannot make a mixture of sources like XP and earlier versions of Windows used to offer.  Maybe that's why you keep finding tutorials for AA3.0... it was the last version designed around XP and previous versions.   I hope you're one of the lucky ones.

  • Out of the Audio tracks in Mono

    I record with both a shotgun (left channel) and microphones Lav (right channel) and the final product will be delivered as mono using one channel or the other, how can I do a mono channel while stilll retaining the other channel, so I can switch between them on the timeline if necessary?

    Thank you!

    Before using the clips in a sequence, you can select them, right-click and select Edit > Audio channels and all the mapping in Mono. He will perform the stereo left and right as two mono channels, and they change into a sequence in this way.

    You can also use the Mono command escape (Clip > Audio Options > Breakout to Mono), but it creates new audio only of the main elements that are more related to the video. It creates no new media, even if - only master clips.

    I have a MacBook Pro (mid-2012) with the audio jack single. Why not recognize it when I plug a microphone inside?

    I use a splitter cable, and have verified meter that it is properly connected.  Also the microphone that I try to use the works when connected to a separate Recorder device, so I know who works very well.

    The audio output on a 2012 port does not support the audio input.  You will need to use the USB ports for audio input.  This will require an appropriate hardware and software.

  • Stereo to Mono

    Hi all

    I've recently been conversion former years 60 tracks from stereo to mono CD, do I have to use the EQ button at all? Any help would be appreciated as this is all new to me

    See you soon

    Paul

    Difficult to answer this question completely, sometimes with the hardware of the 1960s recorded in 'stereo', when you reduce it in mono by adding tracks, things disappear! Basically it's the same and out of step in each channel, it cancels the when added together. And I've heard some really weird to happen over the years.

    But the direct answer to your question is that by nature, you don't need EQ anything . If you do not like the sound you have, then of course you can change this with EQ if you want, but my experience is that usually, it does not help with this stuff; If it sounds crap, then when you have EQ'ed, it sounds like crap EQ'ed - if you see what I mean...

    There is more, you can do some of this material, which is sometimes useful - but I don't think that this applies to convert to mono - it's more to do in obtaining more reasonable stereo images.

  • CC 2015 audio crackles and seeds of Mercury GPU

    Installed first pro today, updated to the latest version and I was surprised to see how much of a * is in fact, I wonder if this piece of garbage was released as a software like games on steam fast access or they try to free themselves of beta-testing on their products, or maybe just * people upward.

    First, I applied a Gaussian on a picture blur, then scroll in the blur timeline would literally twinkle and disappear from time to time, now before some smart * community manager comes and tells me that my gpu is defective or im missing drivers, I need to tell you that everything has been carefully checked and guess what It is linked to your application, surprising isn't?

    I know, right?

    Second issue is with audio cracks and appears during playback of the video, the unacceptable.

    Third question, slow performance anywhere in the application, now don't forget that I am comparing this TURD of cow with the release of 2014 which was very good.

    Then? Maybe we'll fix them? Its been a few times since its been released, what are you doing? Polishing your nails?

    I understand the feelings... certainly. That's why I noted that one could very well use some language... sentences... epithets... curses... behind monikers ended. They don't really help in public, but an IS going to think about them!

    A few versions back, there was a BIG bug in SpeedGrade (really, the program I prefer to spend my whole day in the how it works fine...) ... and on the initial release, I tested it... everything seemed to work properly. So, I've improved my projects and began to work and read a few people here who have had a problem where it would not recognize that they HAD a graphics even & would not be executed in direct connection mode. Huh... Wow... that would be a disappointment, right? Couple of days later... Yes, I was thinking about all sorts of bad myself. Went for a few months while they were trying to fix, and which are there as well, in all, were not but a small proportion of the user base hit with this. What is good for most people, but for a few of us hit with this, it was a big hammer. "Most is works well..." Sorry you're not... "is not a good thing to hear even from another user.

    Then one morning I'm at work and like every morning, hope springs eternal, right? So as always, tried to D.-L. PrPro project. But that morning, even if the new "fix" was still a few weeks away... my Sg decided to work and purr the long very well thank you. What the...?

    I sent (by request) project files, reports of this & that these things to the Sg team. They were also perplexed than me when he decided to work perfectly... but well, at least, all of a sudden I was in easy operation. After a few months of fighting of the EDL and other. That at least, Prpro & Sg at the time COULD work via EDL. I have not been able to do at all with 2015 and may need to try 3-4 that EDL exports in 2014.2 to get a Sg "will be" if I need native mode of the Sg for something.

    So don't be not me started (too late!) on the current situation of 2015 EDL... grrrrr...

  • The selected file cannot be linked because there 6 audio channels, and the clip was created with 2

    I tried to link the MTS files to a project that I have edited with AVI files. I got the message "the selected file cannot be bound because it has 6 audio channels and clip was created with channel 2/channel" audio. Does anyone know what I need to do?

    I had this problem and the cause in my case, it was that I changed all my clips in the project are mono audio channels. When I tried to swap the originals with proxies, I did, I had a similar message for the clips that have been affected by the designation of channels. I opened the project and selected all my media items in the project window and changed all the audio back to 'use the file' and that did the trick for me.
