Audio Target Tracks

[Vince Becquiot]

Because I don’t think I could explain as clearly as the Adobe help file in a decently short post 🙂

In the Premiere help file type “Source Channel Mapping” and I think you will find what you are looking for.

And in case you don’t feel like reading here’s an alternative.

Another alternative;
click on the .avi in the Project window and then go to Clip (menu bar)> Audio Options>Break out to mono

This creates 2 new mono clips in the source window to replace the audio track in the timeline.

Mike:

Using your suggestion, I can now listen to my audio channels in the source monitor.
(They are broken down into two distinct channels in the project panel…perfect) Now, let’s say I want to take the audio from channel 1 and bring video along with it, (I need to see the reporter doing his standup, feature the lav mike on Channel 1, but don’t want to hear all the extra traffic noise recorded on my nat sound camera mic on channel 2). Do I have to sync the video back up to the desired track, or can video be added to the timeline in the same edit? In Final Cut Pro, all you have to do is click a button, and you can direct a source audio track, (with or without video attached) to go to any program channel track. In Premiere, I can’t even make channel 1 go to channel 1, it throws both avi channels onto 3 and 4 for some reason! Any further suggestions before I decide to self-immolate in front of the Adobe headquarters out in San Jose.

Yeah, that’s really bush.

After you edit to the timeline you can hold down Alt and click on the unneeded audio clip and then delete it. The video and other audio track will still be linked.

The Mono clips can only go into Mono tracks, hence 3 and 4.
