Activity Forums VEGAS Pro No audio track after importing video

  • No audio track after importing video

    Posted by Jeff Davis on December 9, 2009 at 8:44 pm

    I shot a video profile for a friends business. I could hear the audio through the headsets during the shoot and even during playback from the video camera itself. After importing the video into Sony Vegas Pro 9 the audio track was missing. I used an canon GL2, a pro sony lavalier mic, and connected them using a beachtek DXA-2S adapter. Is this a recording issue or an importing issue? If its an importing issue, how do I correct this?

    Any help would be much appricated. Thank you

    How did you capture/import the raw footage?
    If it was with USB, then that would explain your problem.
    Firewire is the only way to do this.

    Hello, guys. Wish I could contribute to an explanation but I can’t because I’m experiencing the same problem myself. In my case, I just built another edit workstation running Vegas 9 Pro and Windows 7. The RAW video is fine — shot with XL2 and XHA1. I captured video through Nero Vision 9, which created an .avi file or .mpeg (depending on XL2 or XHA1 footage). I can play back these videos with audio outside of Sony Vegas. But, when I import them into Vegas (.avi or .mpeg)the audio doesn’t make the timeline. If it’s an .avi file, I get an audio track but it shows just a straight line and there is no audio. With the MPEG imports, Vegas doesn’t bring the audio track to the timeline (video only). Any insight into helping understand what’s going on is more than appreciated. Andre

    Why are you not using Vegas for the capture? Nero is probably causing your problem.
