  • Problem with importing audio that overwrite

    Posted by Mike Reid on October 6, 2008 at 4:38 pm

    Hello,

    I must say that I am new to Premiere Pro and I am trying to edit a multicamera project with three video clips. Each video clip is a Quicktime .mov file and has Stereo audio. Say I create a new usual project. When I import one .mov file into the timeline, the .mov into the V1 track, and the 2 mono audio tacks (since stereo) move down into the timeline. What confuses me is hen I try to move another video clip onto the timeline. I move the video clip into the Video 2 track but then the audio from this clip is forcing its way onto the same two audio tracks causing it to overwrite the first two audio tracks. Can anyone please help me understand as to why this is happening and what I can do to fix this?

    not to worry, it’s quite simple…
    – put all videos in the timeline but not one above the other, instead put them one after the other…. then u can just hold the audio track of a video and drag it to another audio track… then slide the video back above the previous…
    – another solution: put one video in the timeline (it will automatically go to video track 1 and audio track 1), open the second in the source monitor (double-click it from the project panel), in the timeline select video track 2 and audio track 2, then go back to the source monitor and press “.” or click on the overlay button…
    good luck
