Any workaround for Audio Conforming Issues?
So we have a client with 1 TB of footage from a project.
Lots of long takes 1 or 2 hour.
Currently it’s impossible to work because Premiere keeps conforming and conforming and conforming the audio.
It takes a day to open the project on fast storage. It’s all ProRes.
Is there any workaround to this problem?

You cannot turn off conforming.
It will only do that when you open the project for the first time.
It will take time and diskspace.To avoid conforming, use audio editing software, or transcoding software, to convert your files to natively-supported uncompressed formats at the supported sampling rates.

So when i import days of footage. Long hour takes. i have to wait a day before i can start cutting?
On a new generation Quad Core i7 Computer with fast storage?
When i import the same footage in FCP7. I can start cutting in a minute.
That old 32 bit software from the past can handle this, but 64 bit Premiere needs conforming?It’s ridiculous.
How can anyone defend this?

We are talking ProRes files 48000 KHZ 16 bit audio , which is an Uncompressed Format that is used widely.
But Premiere needs to conform even 16 bit uncompressed files to 32 bit?
It really is one big joke.

Pro Res is a compressed format – very few productions except huge budget feature films are really working uncompressed anymore.
Make sure your audio previews (waveforms etc) are on a fast media drive and NOT your system drive. Set this up in Scratch Disks panel – by default I believe these go in an Adobe folder on your system drive. I create a folder called Adobe Temp on my fastest drive and make sure all my previews are created there – much faster and better when editing.

I know. They are all on a Thunderbolt Pegasus that goes 600 MB/s
Still i have to wait too long before i can start editing.Importing the same batch in FCP 7 ( 32 bit old stuff ) i can start editing in 10 sec.

I’m having the same problem with AVCHD footage. I can’t get Premiere to stop conforming the clips.
Did you ever get this figured out?
