Audio on DyLink AE Comp in Prem Timeline MUCH LOUDER
Hey guys,
I got some video clips I am doing some effects on in AE (all CS3 btw) and then importing these clips back into Premiere for final cuts and trims.
I am having a problem with the audio of these DyLink imported AE comps in premiere. The video is fine, but the audio is REALLY loud and clips… much more so than the actual levels the audio was recorded at.
If I import the video footage by itself into premiere (not touching it with AE), the audio is perfect, but if I make that clip a part of an AE comp and import that comp into Premiere through DyLink, the audio is sooo much louder and clips… even though I am not touching the audio in AE at all.
Anyone know what is causing this and how to fix? It’s kinda messing up my workflow and because I am having to lower (normalize) the audio of these clips, it isn’t matching up with the other non-AE clips perfectly.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

Then import only the video.

But I still need the audio for these clips in the PP timeline. Do you mean I should import only the video from the AE comps in PP and then simply link the original clips audio with the AE comp video? I mean, that would work, but that’s a lot of work, considering how many seperate clips there are.
Is this audio problem I’m having to be expected, or is something going awry here?

Give this a go.
1. Dedicate an Audio layer for the AE comps. Target that track when you dump it in.
2. Using the Audio Mixer Rename the layer to AE audio and set that lower than the other tracks.
3. This will force any audio inside that layer to be ‘X’dB lower to prevent your loudness level.I work this way quite a bit and haven’t found that issue (cs2 and cs3) maybe your audio drivers are causing issues?
Hope this is a fast way to help your multiple audio problem. I’m guessing the loudness is consistent so the amount you lower that layer should affect all AE audio clips the same.
