No. Firewire is a straight data transfer so you are making a perfect copy. Anything else is processing the signal.

I get the same. I don’t think the Decklink driver doesn’t provides an audio only input. If you want to capture audio without video I think you need a separate card at this point.

Thanks for the report Bill. That sounds encouraging.

Thanks for the discussion. I guess I assumed most others would be troubled by the way the mixer works.
Edit actually did mix at the track level, you could see the levels on a track whether clips were there or not. But what I found useful was being able to move entire sections of the timeline (by marking an in and an out) and that would include selected tracks and the mix levels. That way you could mix as you go and not have to revisit that work if the content was reorganized.
When I was done I could even add bars, slate etc to the head and push everything down without worrying about the mix.

Oh it is a fun one to find.
If you are in your Bin, er I guess Adobe calls it “project”, select a clip. Go up to the top menu and select clip, audio options, source channel mappings. There you will find the toggle that will allow you to change a stereo track to two mono tracks the next time you put the clip on the timeline.
I’m not sure it is worth it when you have to set this for all your clips before you edit. This needs to be a global setting like setting stills to 150 frames is.

I’m not with BM but you might try the BlackMagic deckcontrol program that gets installed with the drivers and see if that works.
You might also try enabling the black output during capture (in control panel). Some hardware is very fussy about genlocking and it sometimes shows up in the audio. We had a terrible time with embedded SDI and Targa 3k on our Panasonic Pro 50 decks.

>>>There is nothing wrong with the mixer. It applies to the track not the clip.

NOTHING WRONG!!!! Ever work with a producer and they say “The mix is perfect, just move that 2 minutes of the show from the middle to the end”.
I know it applies to the track. I just need to move sections of the timeline (all tracks) around and have the mix follow. Is there another NLE in existance that doesn’t do this? Edit only had this 8 or 10 years ago.

…mind you I still hit the backspace first. 10 years of shortcuts are hard to unlearn. In fact I bought a little shuttle pro to keep my hands OFF the keyboard for the first while in Premiere because I always hit the wrong keys first, then had to figure out what I did, undo that, and figure out how to do what I intended to do.

Don’t feel bad it took me a year to find that one. It works just like the backspace key did in edit.

I assume you have the Premiere Program window setting at “Highest Quality”? or is it at automatic or draft?
