What are the good audio settings of first in first?

Several years (beginning of the 1990s) when I started in AV, I was trained by the sound engineer who worked at a factory of TV production.  He gave me this great book on the subject (I wish I had kept him, but he had a red cover) and it was like a revelation for me.  But the main thing was to implement levels SEEN hovering around 0 DB.  And that's when 0 dB displayed on the meter not as more of the top of the counter, but a little more to the right as this:

vu-meter-photo.png

Since then, I did successfully audio with Shure Mackie, Tascam and mixers and other equipment.  One thing that I would try to do is use tone and set it to 0.

We recently had a Canon DSLR and I noticed that the level 0 now seems to be max and not the reference value - in other words if the sounds going past-12 it's bad and 0 is the worst:

canon-audio.png

Meanwhile on first, the sliders seem to be set to 0, which makes sense to me:

meters.png

But the first meter 0 place above how where-12 looks instead to the analog meter above.  And then I found this graph telling you to keep your levels approximately 12 DB:

vu-meters.png

We also have a wireless Audio microphone technology so I put the output on it up to-20 DB switch (there - 20 and -10, 0), connected on the barrel and then using the manual controls on the camera, I brought up to slightly lower levels to-12 DB.  It sounds great and everything worked, but I wonder what happened to the 0 DB reference and why the new machines and software as first use 0 DB as what seems to be a higher level than normal prescribed now?

All advice and help is appreciated.  Thank you.

You have SEEN (units of volume) confuse db (decibels). They are not the same thing. The meter displays the units of volume. The first counters show db. The most simplistic answer is - 12db = 0VU. If you create bars and tone in the program Panel, you will see the default setting is to have the set tone at-12 dB. If you had to play to a device that has meters, adjust you the entry on the device to read 0VU.

  • What are the best export settings for a first Pro CS4 video HD?

    Hello!

    I had so much trouble with this issue and that's something that continually frustrates my boss. I have a HD video what are the settings for it

    23.98 FPS

    1920 x 1080, then a few lines down he says 1408 x 792

    16-bit,

    2 channels

    48000 Hz

    What should be the parameters when I do a new sequence?

    When I look into the window in Premiere Pro I constantly have to "shrink" the image to fit the window, is that something I should do or he says that the configuration of the sequence is bad?

    But more importantly what should be the parameters of export? I exported a long video of 4 minutes and the size was 1 GB, I know that it's too big.

    I need to export without losing quality and export another one which is consistent with the limits on the size of Youtube and Vimeo.

    Vimeo is 500 MB per week, sometimes I download 4 videos per week. I think that Youtube, you can download 500 MB at a time.

    I need to get the smaller size with lose the least possible quality AND the best export quality settings, so I suppose I have 3 separate issues.

    What are the best settings of sequence for HD video?

  • What are the optimal 'System Settings'?

    In administrative tools, in Services, a huge list appears with the names of service such as 'Adaptive brightness', 'Application Host Helper Service', etc. that this plethora of services should we put in the State "started"?   Of those which should be launched, which should be set to "Automatic (delayed start)" "automatic" or "Manual"?  I know that these questions call for biggus answers, but excessive "Started" services really slow down my CPU (Core i5, 4 GB RAM, 64-Bit / Windows 7); So overall responses will be most appreciated!  Thank you.

    After SpeedGrade 2015.0 came SpeedGrade 2015.0.1 (or was it a different number?). Now the current version is 2015.1

    If you want to avoid the RAM eating problem, consider an update - but also consider that it is not recommended to update to mid-project. Also consider that when direct linking of first in SpeedGrade versions must match. If you update a you will be locked out of each other - as in if you update SpeedGrdae, but not first, your first will be able to open your "latest version SpeedGrade.

    I set up a slide show of my drawings for display on a TV.   The images are color JPEGs.   What primary settings work best for the project when it comes to watching a slideshow of images on an HDTV?   I know how to change the properties of the project, but I don't know which of the formats and options will work best to turn slideshow into a video clip.

    Genetrump

    First 13 items on what operating system? You have 13 to 13.1 updates, using Help Menu/updates to date of an open project?

    Your question immediately... assuming you have a NTSC installation...

    1. What are the dimensions in pixels of your JPEG files, and how many of them are there? Depending on the resources of the computer, how many JPEG files, and what pixel dimensions, try to use 1920 x 1080 format JPEG and the project preset elements 13/13.1 first is NTSC, DSLR, 1080 p, DSLR 1080 p 30.

    2. what type of player is has your HD TV?

    (a) if only one DVD, then your destination drive is drive DVD/record/Publish + share with preset = NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD. Video set for display at 872 x 480 after encoding.

    (b) if player Blu - ray, then the publish + share/disc/AVCHD (which are a DVD disc)... can be 1920 x 1080 @ 23,94 progressive frames per second (H.264 1 920 x 1080 NTSC Dolby)

    (c) if the Blu - ray player, then publish + share/Disc/Blu-ray disc... can be 1920 x 1080 @ 23,94 progressive frames per second (H.264, 1920 x 1080 p NTSC Dolby).

    I assumed you wanted a product of disc? If your HD TV player takes support other media of the video file, what are the formats on which media supports?

    With this information, I will propose Publish + share/computer/specificities for export to files.

    Please review, study and give more details.

    Thank you.
