  • Using Insert and Overwrite shortcuts with Dual Mono? (5.5)

    Posted by Eric Schoonover on June 6, 2012 at 5:01 pm

    I seem to be encountering an issue regarding using the overwrite and insert edit keyboard shortcuts when working with audio imported as dual mono:

    Using the default AVCHD 720p24 sequence and after setting my in and outs in the source monitor, when I hit the “,” key or the “.” key, the video will be sent to the timeline, but with no audio.

    I assumed that this may be due to the sequence settings, since there are no mono tracks by default. I created a new preset that had the first 2 audio tracks set as mono. When I use the “,” and “.” shortcuts here, only the first dual mono track is being sent down, which is strange since both audio tracks highlight in the timeline.

    Now if I click and drag the clip into the timeline, it works fine. Both mono tracks appear. So in the end, I can get it to work, but it would be much faster if I can work with shortcuts.

    I am hoping I am just doing something wrong since I’m still fairly new to Premiere, but I’ve checked all my settings and am not sure what else to try. Thanks in advance.

    I’m having the same problem in Premiere Pro CS6. I wish somebody could answer this question because it saves so much time to insert a clip (with audio) by hitting (.) rather than having to drag it down to the timeline.

    Hi,

    I had the same problem and for a little while and realised the Audio 1 track wasn’t highlighted. Just clicked on it and it work smoothly now.

    Hope this helps,

    Cheers
