Audio Bizarro

[Kelly Griffin]

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Is this with Vegas Pro 10c? You may have found a bug and should probably report it to Sony. I have read about problems with files getting switched in projects but I have not experienced any of this myself.

Yep. Is there a preferred bug report link (which I’ll keep in my favorites list)?

I would use the support email on their Technical Support page. Report the problem and let them determine if it’s a bug.

I am experiencing the same, as reported here:

It does seem to occur at the end of audio events, when there should be silence. For me the only workaround has been to close and re-open Vegas 10c (and the project).

But, this is a major problem, as it seems to re-appear randomly.

[Kelly Griffin]

Yes, I’d call it a major problem. And, yes, mine seem to occur at the end of an audio clip… where a nice music ring-out should be I get a piece of some VO from god-knows-where. I’d love to know how to successfully deal with this, because it happens frequently enough that it’s completely maddening.

Kelly, the only changes that I have made, since the arrival of this audio problem was the upgrade to 10c and adding a USB3 card and ext. drive (for source files). I do not recall experiencing this issue before 10c. And I have using Vegas nearly every day since Vegas 7.

You don’t happen to be working with USB-3.0? I can’t imagine that it is related to this problem, but still I’m trying to rule out any possible source.

[Kelly Griffin]

Vegas 10c is my first introduction and experience with Vegas on a new turnkey system. I’ve had the weird audio sporadically (but annoyingly frequently) since day one. I do have a USB3 port, but haven’t used it yet.

Please do let me know if you come upon a way to make this problem go away! I’m dreading it happening while one particular client is here…

Now, I find that if I zoom in on the audio anomaly, I can “sometimes” visually see it on the wave form (it seems to a portion of another audio event in the same project). But, still, when I open the same WAV file in SF, all is well.

I have submitted this to Sony Tech, so hopefully they will resolve. Otherwise, I will have to go back to 10a or b and hope that the problem does not exist there.

You know… Vegas has a really nasty feature that allows two events to be on top of each other. If you use ripple edit and aren’t careful (or even sometimes if you are just dragging things around the timeline) you can easily get an event that’s hidden under another event and not even realize it!

I would insert a new audio track above the one that is giving you the trouble. Then select the audio event and use your numeric keypad up arrow key to move the audio event up to the next track and see if a smaller event is now revealed on the timeline under where the original event was.

BTW, VASST Ultimate S Pro has an auditing feature that can find these problems and more, and bring them to your attention to fix.
