Squealing while shuttling/fast fowarding
When I’m shuttling or fast-forwarding in Premiere, the audio emits an extremely high frequency tone that I’m pretty sure isn’t room-tone, or part of the original audio. It seems like a glitch, or some property of audio playback that I’m not familiar with. Sometimes it happened in Final Cut, but in Premiere it’s quite noticeable and much louder.
Any ideas on how to prevent this? I would really like to be able to listen to what the interviewees are saying, without having to playback in real-time.

Hello Luke,
Actually, audio changes pitch when video is sped up or slowed down — becoming higher or lower frequencies respectively. If there is already a high-frequency sound in your source, it may attain disturbing levels when sped up. Some audio effects take care of that allowing users to change the audio speed while preserving its pitch, but that’s certainly not a solution in your case. I’d probably use try & error approach to figure out the right amount of speeding up the video whereby you lose less time while being able to hear the sound more or less comfortably.

Just press “shift L” until it plays at a speed that’s slow enough for you to understand what is said, but still faster than normal playback speed.
Hope this helps.
