Strange audio glitch on output – is this a bug?

[Joe Bell]

I have this issue too. Latest OS X, latest Adobe CC.

Ball ache.

OMG thank you thank you!!! Swapping all my constant power fades with Constant Gain worked great.

I have been exporting as Quicktimes (either ProRes, then bringing through Compressor or AME, or making h.264 codec quicktimes) and that solves the problem for the most part as well. But sometimes an mp4 right out of Premiere is so much easier!!

Premiere Pro 2015.
We are behind schedule for a live OB, because we can’t get audio out of Premiere CC2015.

1) 4 tracks high.
Plays back fine, on export “Unknown error” “Error compiling movie”.

2)4 tracks high
Exports fine but has glitches, repeats audio, cuts audio off.

Successful Workarounds:
Send audio out to Audition, then lay it back.
Avoiding Media Encoder and rendering 422 out of Premiere then use Streamclip to
compress.

XML into Final Cut 7 and then Export, was rather quick, too.

Yeah, I thought I had this fixed by rendering everything first and exporting ProRes QTs out of Premiere, then running through other means to generate an MP4. I just found the glitch again, and traced it to the ProRes, so that workflow is out the door.

I also tried swapping all my constant gain power fades for constant gain. Made no difference.

Rebooting before exporting seems to help, but I am presently exporting hundreds of short clips that keep getting little revisions. Not so practical.

Thus, I am without a reliable workaround.

Seriously Adobe, where are we at giving us a solution or an incremental version? I have been waiting since Oct for a better release. This last one had so many issues. Seriously makes me reconsider using Premiere as my primary edit system if I can’t rely on it at crunchtime.

Just come across this thread. I’m getting this issue using either constant power or exponential transitions and even if I export to an intermediate ProRes file. It’s really frustrating, did anyone find a fix for it?

We’re still using FCP7 for most of our offline editing but trying Premiere out on a few projects, and this isn’t convincing me to switch anytime soon.

Premiere Pro CC 9.2.0
Mac OSX 10.11.5

Hi Dave,

Sorry you experiencing this issue. I haven’t heard of this being brought up for sometime. It would be great if you could share a sequence with me. I shouldn’t need any media.

Let me know if you willing to share that and we can arrange a way to get it to me.

Thanks,

Interesting, this problem FINALLY disappeared with 9.2.0 for me. (I too lost all faith in Adobe because of this)

I also did a complete system re-install – wiped hard drive, set everything up from scratch, no time machine restore.

Not that you should need to do a complete re-install, but maybe some remnant from a previous version – a settings or encoding profile – triggers it?

[Brian Sarfatty]

Also, I’m on 9.2.0 build 41. What build are you on?

[Dave Jones]

Hi Brian, I’m on the same, build 41.

Peter, thanks for the quick response I’d be happy to share a timeline. Can I just post a weTransfer link in this thread?

@Dave That’s perfect.

I’ll review and mostly likely come back to you with a few questions.

Thanks!
