Why do I Lose Audio when I enable Multicam mode

Mar 24, 2012 4:23 PM

I am tryin to edit a multi angle concert. All Audio works fine until I right click my files, go to Multi-Camera and click enable. Then my audio doesnt play back anymore. I have "Audio follows video" selected in the muli-cam playback monitor as well. If i disable Multi-Camera on the files the audio works again. Please help. I sent the audio away to be mixed/mastered and want to get all my video editing done for when the file is back on monday.

    If you send the audio to be mastered/ mixed then that means you will have to sync it with the multicam sequence and start the live cut from there, But when you need to cut out anything later make sure you use the in and out markers then extract.

    I know I will have to re synch the audio after that is fine. I am using pluraleyes for all of that. My problem is once i have my clips synced. Here are the steps Im using after my clips are synched:

     

     

     

    1 - Create a new sequence called Multicam
    2 - Drag   already synchronized footage (all 3 cam angles + the 3 audio) "Sequence 1 sync" and place it on Video track 1 in "Multicam sequence" (sound is all good)
    3 - Select new file on Video track 1 in Multicam sequence
      - Right Click / Multi-Camera / Enable (now my sound is gone during play back)


    If I Rightclick / Multi-Camera / Enable again (disable) my audio comes back.

     

    Audio is fine that action occurs.

     

    If I go Window / Multi-Camera Monitor / Options Roll / "Audio Follows Video" it can be checked or not and still get no audio playback.

    You need to render the audio after enabling multicam.  (Just hit Enter.)

    I rendered the audio like you said. Now I have no sound at all on the multicam sequence with or without multicam enabled. Sound on original sequence still works. any ideas?

    my quick fix at the moment is cut audio from "sequence 1 sync" and paste it to audio in "Multi-Cam Sequence"

    I'm also having trouble with audio in multi-cam enabled nested sequences in PPro CS5.5. It seems whatever audio routing is going on, it's not intuitive or what a user would expect, this needs improvement or a detailled explanation in the application help.

     

    I found a few threads like this one: http://www.dvinfo.net/forum/adobe-creative-suite/506135-ppro-cs-5-5-mu lti-camera-audio.html#post1725437 and it seems the only solution is to work audio separately.

     

    Would it be so difficult to have the application treat the audio and video just the way you already edited it in the source sequence?

    You need to enable all the audio tracks. See this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/premiere-pro/using/editing-mult i-camera-sequences1.html#id_60276

    Using PrPro CS5.5, I am having this same issue.  All the track output icons are visible in the synced sequence, so each track is enabled.  There are no waveforms visible in the nested sequence.  No audio output. How does this work?

    It's Adobe. Do not expect their software will work as you would expect it to.... and they will not fix bugs - you have to buy new version...

    7marcin,

    That's not true at all. With CS6 we've had two patches: 6.01, and (6.02, 6.03).

     

    Info on 6.0.1
    Info on 6.0.2/6.0.3

     

    Do we fix ALL bugs? No, that's impossible. We prioritize based on a number of things, a chief one among them is the bug report/feature request form: http://www.adobe.com/go/wish
