Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Audio – Markers Trouble

  • Audio – Markers Trouble

    Posted by Frank Weber on September 20, 2007 at 1:49 pm

    I’ve always used the * button on the keypad to drop markers as a way of planning my timing while using Audio. But now in CS3, After Effects drops the marker 5-10 frames after I actually hit the Star button.
    ???
    Please help.
    I’m on Windows.

    Hm. Slow response.

    Got anything else running at the same time?
    Using MP3 audio?

    Thanks. But no I don’t have anything else open. I’ve re-installed the audio driver and restarted everything.

    When I switch off the audio layer (Wav or Uif) it works fine.

    I’m running Dual-Duo-core 3gig processors and 4 gigs of ram with a good audio card so there shouldn’t be any problems???

    If you have the audio waveform showing, can you hide it?

    The Waveform is not showing – It’s instantanious when I do a Video preview, or an audio preview. But not both ( Normal Ram Preview.)

    Hm. Maybe it’s a bug. You can write to aebugs@Adobe.com .

    Until then, you might have to just do Audio-only or Video-only previews when setting markers. I’d use Audio-only when marking hits in the music, but looking at the waveform can be more accurate sometimes. Sorry.

    Anybody else?

    Thanks Dave! Thanks Steve!
    I reckon it’s time I write to Adobe.

    And… is there a way to move all markers at the same time to the correct position to keep the relation?
