  • Vegas Studio 11 Randomly Swaps Audio and Video

    I edit with Vegas Studio 11, and I have an incredibly frustrating problem with Vegas studio that seems to be getting increasingly worse.

    Vegas is randomly screwing up my audio. It started with segments of audio that I’d ran through a noise reduction in Audacity randomly having sounds from other segments of audio show up in it. Out of nowhere, there would be 1 to 3 second long bursts of audio from another part of the film showing up in a clip. Then it escalated to full segments of audio getting switched with other full clips. It seems to only happen with WAV files, and it usually starts with files that have been exported to audacity for a static removal, an only on WAV files

    The problem has now started happening to video clips. I’m seeing video clips randomly get replaced by other clips. It’s really, really weird, and I have absolutely no idea to fix it. It’s supremely frustrating. It’s making editing a constant battle and way more time consuming then it needs to be. I can fix the results of this problem, it just takes time. So I want to strike the root and actually get rid of the glitch.

    Also, telling me to upgrade to Vegas Pro or some other program is not going to help me. It’s not an option right now.

    I know nothing about the history in Studio, but make sure you have the latest version. There was a known bug in Pro 11 that sounds like what you are describing:

    Notable fixes/changes in version 11.0 (Build 510/511)
    Fixed an issue that could cause events to use the wrong media in certain circumstances (seen when project is later loaded).

    It’s worth a try to delete the .sfk files for those events.
