  Mute (or solo) audio channel while viewing in Source Monitor?

  Posted by Steve Martin on June 10, 2013 at 3:26 pm

  Hi all,

  Working in Premiere CS6 on a Mac…

  I’ve got a bunch of P2 footage with 4 mono audio channels from a conference. CH1 & 3 is the line feed from the audio mixer and sounds great.

  CH2 & 4 is the wild mic from the camera and is obviously very hollow and “echo-ie” No big deal because I intend to use it only when I want to use nat sounds to liven the room a bit or when I want to ramp up applause, etc…

  The problem is that I want playback/review the footage in the source monitor in double speed to make sub clips but I can’t isolate CH1 and/or CH3. So the audio is unintelligible because of the echo in CH2&4 – especially at fast speed.

  I can isolate audio on the time line easy enough by turing tracks on and off, but can’t make sub clips from there.

  Is there a way to isolate (by either mute or solo) in the viewer/source window? Or perhaps track assign to L or R so that I can pan my mixer and control volumes there?

  Production is fun – but lets not forget: Nobody ever died on the video table!

  OK – never mind. I found the answer. Or at least “an” answer. There are “s” buttons below each track on the audio output meters. Click on the “s” below the track you want to isolate/solo it.

  I’m still feeling my way around Premiere after years on FCP- so If there’s another approach please share!

  Thanks,
  Steve
