Wave hammer on the individual tracks (in place of compressor on the voice-over track).Ħ. Just reduce the master volume? Or is this too late because the clipping has already occurred (i.e. Just reduce the volume of the individual tracks?Ĥ. Reduce the output gain in the voice-over compressor from 3dB?ģ. Reduce the normalize peak setting to something like -1.5dB instead of -0.1dB?Ģ. What's my best strategy for eliminating the master clipping and a good result?ġ. Not normalized.īecause of the event normalisation and the additive effect of the tracks, there is periodic of clipping in the master bus. Ambient reef noise, coming and going but peaking at something like -10dB.
The music track ducking down to -7.9dB under the voice-over sections (c/o Excalibur plugin).ģ. Normalize switch 'on' (peak level -0.1dB). Voice-over track, normalize switch 'on' (peak level -0.1dB), track compressor applied (input gain 0, output gain +3dB, threshold -12.0, amount 3.0, attack 10ms, release 250ms, auto gain compensation off, smooth saturation off).Ģ. I've got 3 audio tracks containing WAV's:ġ. It will have AC3 audio (stereo) and will be authored and burnt by me. Thanks again for your willingness to help out.Hi, I'm mixing the audio for an underwater documentary DVD. drink more coffee today so that I can stay up all night with this? I can cursor through one frame at a time (to not "overload" my computer's head) and i can see the distortion in each frame shift about.ĭo I need to compress/convert the IMPORTED FILES BEFORE IMPORTING?ĭo I need a different video codec in my computer?ĭo I need to. it is not a problem with the preview pane or the "power" of my computer. The problem is really occurring in the import. This snapshot was taken from a rendering.
DISTORT AUDIO IN SONY VEGAS 14 MP4
mp4 at 1920x1080 and it didn't allow me to do it at mpeg-2 either.) These are 2 different render settings i tried ( i know the video size is "small" i wasn't able to render to. This pic was copied to the clipboard after having made suggested changes ALL demonstrate FAILURE.Īs you can see, the project and preview is now the same on the low left of preview windowĭisable resample (and i tried it both WITH maintain aspect ratio and without) THIRD: I did the disable resample - and i even tried under sampling to 29.011 fps but neither attempt (done separately of course) made any change (pics below)įOURTH: i copied a sample frame to the clipboard as suggested and even RENDERED a small section as a test. SECOND: I made both changes to preview window (same as media settings - and 'best full') but this has not changed what i see. so why are my files with fps 29? is THIS the problem? Off the bat, this seems like a problem - since 29.970 and 29.00 are not the same number in my experience. when i "match media settings", 29.970 is selected and the drop down menu gives me 23-something and 25 as other choices. No luck still: here is my report!įIRST: I am not able to select 29.0000 fps on the "project settings". perhaps i need to CHANGE THE FORMAT OF THE RAW VIDEO BEFORE I IMPORT IT? If so, none of the project settings changes i tried helped. What I've already tried - I read on forums and did searches for about an hour so far. i know it isn't the exact same FRAME, but believe me, this demonstrates the "what i should see" versus "what is happening in Sony Vegas" This final picture shows the raw video as played in VLC - without the distortion. the problem must be with the "import"? or the "project settings"? So my problem is occurring BEFORE i even get to the render phase. specifically, in this frame, look at the cane on the right (below her left hand). there are intermittent 'pixelizations' and choppy bits of light. No trouble "importing the media" - but as soon as i try to WATCH one of the files in the PREVIEW WINDOW, I can see the distortion shown in NEXT PICTURE. I prepared the project settings to match the format of the imported files. I've always done ok with basics in the past. The program I use to edit video is SONY VEGAS HD Platinum 10.0 The final demo video is something that will be shared on youtube. What I have: video files that my friend supplied to me to create a demo video.
