Premiere acting very strange – or is it me?
I’ve used Premiere Pro to create 3 or 4 projects and have never run across this before.
I import a clip, cut off about the first minute, export it to a .wav file (I only want to hear the audio at this point) When I listen back to the .wav file, the miniute I cut off is still there. I’ve tried this several times (making sure I save the file first)
When I go back to the project in premiere pro and listen now the audio starts somewhere else altogether about 2 minutes into the clip. I’ve tried several times and trial and error and it’s all over the place – the audio seems to shift itself for some strange reason. I’ve never encountered this before and is most frustrating. Any ideas on why this might be happening?
Thanks so much,
Lillian

Can you be more specific?
Import the clip and cut off a minute…where? Sequence? Source Window? set an in point…or trim it off on the timeline?
Save what file?
Export it from where? Do you choose “in to out” or “work area”? Do you set them before you export?

Thank you for your email; I’ll try to give you more information – well, I’m using the razor tool to cut the first minute of the sequence. Then I do a ripple delete to position the part I want to hear to the beginning. I then use export to media and using media encoder I’m creating an audio wav file so I can test only the audio.
However, the piece I deleted using the razor tool is still there. I guess I’m doing something wrong here. I didn’t see any options for ‘work area’ or in and out points when exporting.
Thanks so much for any assistance you can give.
cheers,

When you use the razor…the audio track with the clip’s audio has the focus right?
When you ripple-delete, you don’t end up with a +/- timecode number on the clip on the timeline indicating that it went out of sync?
When you listen to the sequence in playback after you’ve razored and rippled…the audio is as it’s supposed to be? The problem is only after export?

I’ll answer your questions below:
When you use the razor…the audio track with the clip’s audio has the focus right? – Well, I’m not separating the video from the audio, I just razored them together – they are linked – I’m not sure if that’s what you’re looking for.
When you ripple-delete, you don’t end up with a +/- timecode number on the clip on the timeline indicating that it went out of sync? – no I don’t see anything like that
When you listen to the sequence in playback after you’ve razored and rippled…the audio is as it’s supposed to be? – The problem is only after export? – yes the audio is as it’s supposed to be when I play it – it’s just when I export it.
I hope this answers your questions.
