Audio stops when exporting to tape
I have been having trouble with my audio getting crackly sounding and then dropping out completely after a few seconds when trying to “export to tape”. I have tried rendering and not rendering the audio and it doesn’t make any difference. No funky audio settings or weird formats, just plain DV footage captured via my deck. It plays fine, exports to DVD and other formats fine, it just will not export to tape via the “Export to Tape” command. The only way to get the project out is with a crash record, which leaves me with a sloppy time code on my master. Anyone else had problems with their audio dropping out after a few seconds when using the “Export to Tape” command? Ideas??
I apologize if this has been asked and answered before. I know it is probably in the archives somewhere but I was not able to find any reference to it.

Does your project audio settings match your imported audio specss? EX: Project audio setting is 16bit 48khz, is your audio import the same or is it 44.1khz cd audio, 32khz 12bit, etc.

You may have me on the right track. My project audio setting is 48000Hz, 16 bit. My incomming audio is 48000Hz, 12 bit. I don’t see a setting to allow 48000Hz 12 bit in the project options but Premier takes it in, no problem. I thought Prenmier conformed all the audio when it imported it? Am I missing something?

[R Summerfield] “My incomming audio is 48000Hz, 12 bit.”
12Bit audio is usually 32khz, so if you’re sure the audio is 12bit use a 32khz project setting and see if that cures the problem. -
Thanks for your help Blast. I double checked the entire project and found that some Audio is 16 bit and some is 12 bit. It all reads 48kHz. So switching everything to 32khz won’t fix the stuff thats 16 bit. I’m still trying to get my mind around the fact that Premier conforms the audio when it brings it in no matter the format. So why does the original format matter if it is compatible with Premier and gets conformed to the project settings upon import?

When it conforms its conforming at the project specs,

The above went out before I finished, like I saying it conforms with the project specs, if the audio doesn’t match it will try to convert but it may not work right particularly if its a non-standard sample/bit rate combo.
