Ramping up audio in Premiere Pro

[Jon Barrie]

Your best option is to use the time remapping feature in AE. Once you place your clip in the comp timeline. Right click and select time>enable time remapping.
Add keyframes at the start and end of the clip. Find the points in the audio you want to have the changes to occur and “Shift gears”. Keyframe those too.
Now you need to select keyframes together and move together so they shift in time, but don’t actually get closer or further apart to maintain 100% time. the gaps you do make bigger will be slower and closer faster. You can use the graph switch to ramp the speed changing keyframes to ease in or ease out and use the handles of the keyframes to control the speed of the eases.

Jon, how does this apply to Eric’s question? He asked specifically about Premiere.

Jon,

thanks for the help. Still need to play with it, but its starting to come around. I didn’t think time remapping audio would work in AE since it doesn’t work in Premiere Pro (CS3)

Hard to believe that a relatively simple effect can’t be pulled off in Premiere or Soundbooth. please tell me that they fixed this with version CS4.

Again, Thanks for the help Jon, truly appreciate it!

Hi Jiri,

this was at the bottom of his original post.

In case you were wondering I am working with version CS3 for AE, Premiere Pro, Soundbooth, etc.

That’s why I told him the AE workflow.

Hi Eric,
AE does do this ramping with audio and video (as individual media or contained video/audio files). Premiere is under no obligation to intergrate the audio remapping – Adobe have it all in AE and have for years.
FCP doesn’t work with the audio of their Variable speed time remapping either. Soundbooth I’m not sure, Audition can have the speeding up and down ramping you want it’s in one of the plugins – used it years ago. But it’s not as ‘frame’ accurate as AE.

AE is your fastest most accurate solution. If you want to sample the audio while scrubbing the timeline hold down the Ctrl Key (PC) or the Apple Key (mac).

Cheers.

Hi I have a similar question with ramping up audio/video in Premiere Pro CS3. I have an original source clip which I’ve duplicated and increased both audio and video until Premiere physically would not allow, the footage and sound to be increased something like 9000times quicker than the original 100% regular speed. Some of the audio once I’m over 1000times increase cuts out. I hear it off and on if I fool around with it in the timeline but mostly its gone, and of course it won’t export, cutting out when I reach 1000 times increase. Pretty frustrated here and self taught so I’m basic in my understanding at best, any ideas? Thanks!!!
