Hi Andrew

Normally closed captions should be on all videos. I’m not sure if descriptive audio for the blind is required or optional.

I suggest joining some Facebook groups like Adobe Premiere Pro Editors. I’m on there, you can mention me to admin Kyle.

I can’t think of anything else you could add to videos other than those two. I do captions and subtitles independently and for a translation company. It’s a bit technical and specific.

Also do a deep Google search for ADA or FCC compliance and see what you get.

Sometimes you can get cost rebates for adding captions, but you’ll need to find out how to apply.

I don’t use AE much, but I’ve read the more ram the better. However you should look up your computer ram configuration guide.

You can’t always mix/match different sizes/speeds/brands. For example my HP Z800 has a chart showing which ram sizes and amounts you should get.

Otherwise you can actually slow down your computer

Hi Frank

I’ve had more luck getting answers on my Facebook Premiere group. However you need to post a lot more detail to get help

Computer, ram, graphics card, drives, OS, PP version (don’t say “the latest” be specific) and clearly describe what you mean by crash, what you were doing when it happened, etc.

Also don’t delete anything yet. We’ve had issues where we sometimes need to use an older version. A lot of folks cursed themselves when they realized Encore disappeared, same with Dolby surround audio.

Kyle Koch is a moderator and very helpful.

You need a video or audio card in your computer capable of sending out 6 discrete outputs or 3 stereo ones to the encoder.

You’ll also need to configure your mixer output settings to

Then you have to play your audio through encoder to another device to capture it, like another computer with video/audio card. However I’m not sure about next step as I don’t know anyone who’s done what you plan. The digital output is the encoded bitstream which is only playable through Dolby decoder, whether on Blu-ray or whatever. I suggest asking this question on one of the Audio groups both here and Facebook. I used that encoder for years, but it was for DVD mastering equipment.

Encoding is real time, no shortcuts.

Also you’ll need convertors on the BNC connectors to change to XLR connections unless your audio equipment has BNC. I have some I’ll sell cheap, they’re Canare Impedence Transformers

That price is for entire Red Giant Suite. If all you need is Denoiser then sure, that’s a lot to spend.

i suggest you also check the FB Premiere group for pro editors and get their feedback

Almost certainly your camera records 24fps at 23.976. Only certain high-end digital cameras and camcorders can record true 24. Pretty much any dvd, blu-ray, streaming, tv is either 23.976 or 29.97. So you’re not changing frame rates at all.

Just do ProRes at that frame rate, make sure you use HQ for best quality and you’ll have a much better edit experience than trying to use MP4 files which although much smaller have to be decoded to play.

What video format are you working in? What is the size/filetype/quality of your stills? These all matter.

Video doesn’t have the same maximum resolution as photos or graphics. Even 4k video is less than a good 300dpi photo.

So post specifics that will help us help you

Camera audio is almost never as good as external recorders. They’re 16 bit whereas Zoom and others can record 24bit.

Also better to stay XLR all the way. If you convert to miniplug it may not ground properly without right adapter and you can pick up audio hum.

However always record on the camera so you can easily sync later.

Using Premiere you don’t need Plural Eyes. PP can sync using Multicam

It’s difficult to remove all the air, i.e. the extra sound due to the mic distance from subject. However I was able to improve somewhat.

First, redo your noise reduction. I was able to remove a lot of noise. Make sure you sample an area with ambient sound only. No speaking, cars, birds, etc. Then set NR for 70& and Reduce 9db.

Now go to Effects/Special/Vocal Enhancer/Male. This will bring up the bass a bit.

There’s some filters in Audition for Male or Female voice. However unless you’re already voicing in a higher register that is in the female range I don’t think you can make a believable woman’s voice.

I would test by intentionally recording as if you were female raising and lightening your voice. Then listen to it and try the female voice filter. It’s in the Effects tab/Special/Vocal Enhancer/Female Voice
