  • Premier audio sync problem

    Ok, basically, I recorded some video and and recorded the audio through a different mic directly into my computer to get better quality since the camera I used didn’t have a good mic. All that went well and I lined it up in Premier Pro so now it looks and sounds perfect.

    Now, I have you do a ton of editing – I need a bunch of little clips from that one large file. My thought was that I would render it out as one file, bring it back into PP and get to work. The problem is I have over an hour of footage to go through so that rendered (or exported) file is going to be massive. At this point I don’t have enough room on my hard drive and don’t have the time to go through and delete a bunch of stuff.

    Any solutions??

    Thanks in advance…

    Can’t you just link or group the video and audio files to keep them in sync together?

    After you link the audio in your project panel, you need to use subclips. Double click on the footage to bring it to the source window, set your in and out points, right click on the source monitor and make subclip. That will create new virtual clips in your project panel.

    I have a project with 12 hours of video that I also captured the audio on Camera, as well as the Audio out from my mixer to a Laptop recording to WAV file in 44100 sampling rate, and an Edirol r-09hr portable Audio recorder.

    My project is settings are:

    DV NTSC
    Audio: 48Khz 16 bit

    I am able to sync the audio from my portable up to my project, but my highest quality audio that comes from the recorded WAV files that are in 44100 are slowly getting out of sync.
    I’ve converted the audio files from 44100 to 48000; just by using “Save As” but this hasn’t resolved this problem.

    Does anyone have ideas or suggestions if there’s another way to convert my Primary audio source that’s the WAV file in 44100, and efficiently convert it to 48000 so that it will retain the Lip Sync?

    I can setup the lip sync, but it slowly goes out of sync.

    A few suggestions that friends have given me include using an M-Audio Sound card, to change the audio conversion: but I’m question if this makes sense at all.
    Another suggestion was to remove 2 frames every 45 seconds, to retain Lip sync… but I have more than 8 hours of video.

    Much appreciate any suggestions or resources that you can point me to.

    Thanks so much!
