Bill Hunt Mar 28, 2012 10:10 PM (in response to dalecampbelljr)Which Audio Track is the Audio Clip in?
Did you allow the Conforming to complete 100%? This ARTICLE goes into more detail.
Good luck, and please let us know a bit more.

dalecampbelljr Mar 29, 2012 6:08 AM (in response to Bill Hunt)The audio clip is on the "Narration" track, but I have also tried it on other track withe same results.

Steve Grisetti Mar 29, 2012 6:13 AM (in response to dalecampbelljr)Dale, are you complaining about the fact that the audio and video tracks are compressed, by default?
You can open each track up to show both audio waveforms and video clips by clicking on the open toggle on the Track Header to the left of each track.

dalecampbelljr Mar 29, 2012 6:25 AM (in response to Steve Grisetti)Thanks for the replies everyone, Steve I am unable to see the waveform to match it with the lip syncing of my 3D animation. I need to see the peaks and valleys if you will of the waveform to match things correctly.

Steve Grisetti Mar 29, 2012 7:14 AM (in response to dalecampbelljr)It's not clear if we're understanding what you're asking, Dale. Can you post a screen capture of your timeline?

6. Re: Audio Waveform not showing?
Bill Hunt Mar 29, 2012 8:15 AM (in response to dalecampbelljr)OK, you have a Waveform Display, but need to see it better?
You can zoom in on the Timeline, in the horizontal dimension, with the zoom slider, AND you can increase the vertical height of the Track, to see a Waveform better. Just hover the cursor over the upper junction between Audio Track, and the Track above it, in the Track Header. When the cursor turns into an equal sign, with up and down arrows (might need to slowly hover, as it can be a bit tough to get the right spot), click+drag up, to expand the vertical display. You can expand that Track quite a bit, and should then be able to see your Waveform clearly.
Good luck, and hope that helps,
Hunt

Brett10241982 Apr 2, 2012 4:28 AM (in response to dalecampbelljr)Dale,
I have EXACTLY the same problem...
I an trying to sync a video with a song and want to change from one still image to another on the snare drum (for example).
If I could see the wave form, I could set the transition at the start of the peak in the wave form.
Bill/Steve,
I have the the song in the sound track track and I can not increase the vertical height of the track as you have described .
Is it possibe that the ability to see an audio tracks waveform is something they left out of the "Elements" version of the program?

Steve Grisetti Apr 2, 2012 5:06 AM (in response to Brett10241982)Guys, if you've got the same problem, you need to follow the same suggestions.
Can someone PLEASE post a screen capture so that we can see what you are seeing (or not seeing)?

9. Re: Audio Waveform not showing?
Bill Hunt Apr 4, 2012 7:45 AM (in response to Brett10241982)The Audio Track (and Video Track too), can be expanded vertically. Just move the Cursor to the line at the top of the Audio Track, in the Track Header, and move it slowly about. When you hit the right spot, you will see the Cursor change shape, into an equal sign, with up and down arrows. Then, click+drag, to expand it. The first time that you do this, it might take a moment of hovering, to get that new Cursor. After you have found the "sweet spot," it will be easier to find next time.
Good luck,
Hunt

11. Re: Audio Waveform not showing?
HTMLSpinnr Dec 8, 2013 12:28 PM (in response to Bill Hunt)I found that clicking the "speaker/notes" icon in soundtrack view (see screen cap w/ circled) to the left of the words "Soundtrack" toggles between volume and waveform view. I needed the same thing when trying to overlay a cheer performance soundtrack used in the actual soundtrack, and needing to align the ambient version w/ the actual music.
HTH,

12. Re: Audio Waveform not showing?
emallove Jun 29, 2014 9:14 AM (in response to dalecampbelljr)I had the same problem, and the solution is to ensure the audio clip in question is contained in your Project panel, e.g., see the below screen shot:

You are posting (2014) what looks like your Premiere Pro solution in a Premiere Elements old (2012) thread where the fundamental first step of placing the audio in the audio track had been done.
Am I missing some other interpretation of what you just posted?
Please consider.
Thank you.

14. Re: Audio Waveform not showing?
emallove Jun 29, 2014 4:24 PM (in response to A.T. Romano)The audio can show up in the track, without being in the Project Panel. When this is done, the clip appears as a rectangle with no waveform rendered. Adobe Elements, Adobe Premiere - same source code base, no?

No is my answer to what appears to be your assumption rather than something you have actually done in Premiere Elements. Let me explain why I am applying a No to the following which you wrote
The audio can show up in the track, without being in the Project Panel.
and then please let me know where I am misinterpreting what you wrote.
Source media are imported in a Premiere Elements project to the Project Media in versions earlier than 11 and to the Expert workspace Project Assets in Premiere Elements 11 and 12. And, the source media are not going to get to the Timeline until the user drags them there.
In Premiere Elements (any version) I have never seen "the audio can show up in the track without being in the Project Panel. If a file is in the Timeline, it has to be in the Project Media (earlier than 11) or Project Assets (11 and 12).

jonny9091 Aug 21, 2014 10:56 AM (in response to A.T. Romano)I have the same issue with waveforms not showing up. In the timeline below, I have a single audio clip repeated a number of times just for this test. Those moved to a different track show no waveform other than the first copy. This is a problem I see quite often....waveforms are just not showing up where they should be.

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
Can you find the conformed audio (cfa and pek) set for audio file (without Timeline waveform audio display format) in the Media Cache Files Folder?
