  • RAM preview audio pitch problem (2015.3)

    Posted by Rogier Degeus on June 22, 2016 at 8:38 am

    Hello all,

    I recently updated my After Effects to 2015.3 and I noticed the audio pitch is fluctuating when my preview speed is less than 25 FPS. (25 FPS being my project settings). It’s very annoying and distracting to have the audio pitch change continuously throughout a ram preview. The voice-over I’m using to time my animation is going nuts.

    Is there anyway to set the audio to stutter like the previous AE versions whenever playback is a little laggy? I noticed an option to mute audio when the preview is not real-time, but that’s not really a solution either.

    Help would be appreciated!

    Would checking “Cache before playback” help you? You can also set “On (Spacebar) Stop” to “If caching, play cached frames” to work in conjunction with that and provide more control over what you’re previewing.

    Thank you for your reply.

    Where can I find these options? I haven’t been able to find them in the preferences

    They are in the Preview panel:

    It doesn’t make a difference unfortunately. Am I the only one to experience this issue? I can’t see why Adobe would implement such a feature.

    I’m having the same issue as audio doesn’t play normally for more than 3 seconds (it then slows down and gets really low). I’m on a 29.97 timeline
