More than 4 in Multicam?
I've been thinking that if I do a music video where the entire video is just of the band playing in one location with no narrative, I'd film the band playing their song through 10 or 12 times from a different angle and cut from those to make a music in the end. If I could use more than four video tracks in the multi-cam mode, this could make editing that type of music video as easy as watch-and-click...Is there any way to do that though? Taking more than 4 angles, watching each of them in a separate monitor and clicking on each monitor to switch angles?

You can do the main four. Then add it footage from the next three, then the next three, etc.
If you look closely, you will probably find that there are only a few shots outside of your favorite four that you really want to use. Get the major cuts done, then add in the other footage. Of course, remember to take the time to submit a feature request to Adobe to add more camera angles. They might listen. |

It would be a good feature, I think. You'd be able to have something edited in a fraction of the time it takes to manually take each clip and cut it.
I'm thinking that there'd be shots from the less frequent angles I'd want to splice in between stuff from the main four...It would be good to edit everything in order. For instance, I might have only one shot from the second batch of multicam shots I'd like to be with the primary batch. |

easiest way to alter a voice
using PP1.5, to edit a PRACTICE short. and I dont have much experience with altering/sweetening sound. So that being said, I would like to alter some kids voices when they become zombies. Being that this project is just for practice, I am trying to not spend anymore money to complete it. So what is the easiest way to give there vocies that deep/scary sound? Within the audio effects that come with PP1.5, Ive used the pitchshifter filter and that sounds okay. Is there another filter I could use, or another one to apply with pitchshifter? Is there other (free) software that could do the trick? Or if I need to pay, what other software out there is easy to use/learn?
wheres a good place to buy/get sound effects to emphasize certain scenes thanks ruben |

Problems with Device Control in Premiere Pro 1.5
Hullo!
Just when I've started to post-process my first digital movie, problems started to pour in. You may not find this problem as annoying as it is to me, but here goes : My camera is uncontrollable from the PC in Adobe Premiere 1.5. The timestamp does update when I'm rewinding or forwarding, but buttons like play, forward, stop are inactive and do nothing. I tried changing the options, but nothing works. The weird thing is that the device control works in all the other programs, including Windows Movie Maker or WinDV. Has anybody got a clue? I'd be thankful for any response. -X |

Hi daniel,
Have you set the device control in Premiere. Generally generic DV should do, if your camera is not on the list. If movie maker and other Dv controlled software can detect it OKthen Premiere should be fine also. What camera are you using? What settings/ configurations have you tried? Cheers,

Perhaps nobody responded because you never said which software you are using, or what kind of footage, or what size the frame is (widescreen or 4:3), or if the problem happens when you skip using the Matrox, or if you upgraded the Matrox drivers to match your version of software?

My audio page has links to lots of free sound effects. Start with FindSounds.
Try applying a little echo, some noise, stuff like that. |

Problem when slowing down
As you can see, the problem starts when slowing down.
I only make it 80% and the picture starts to get some stroby effect. Even if I deinterlace it in Premiere, I again get this annoying efect. On TV it looks like I the interlacing is going slow. (well it is, but I worked on lots of cheaper and worse editing softwares which could make slow-mo better.) I read that Premiere is not so good with slow-mo, but it's hard for me to give up on Premiere, because I used it so much, so wanted to see how you guys handle this. Any advice more than welcome...

OK, after reading some old posts, realized it's a known weakness and that possible solutions are 3rd party plugins or going to AfterEffects which does it better.
My question is how you do it in AE. Not meaning what's the procedure, but for example a wedding 'walk in the park' intro. Do you take all the footage into AE, slow it down and then edit in Premiere, or do you do the editing in AE. Because I'm much slower in AE so, want to know if I practice will it make it faster or it's just the way it is?

check out www.goldwave.com there is a free trial download, that is limited by the amount of actions per session. I believe it has a mechanize filter and some others that may do what you want.

boggy editing
I edit with Premiere 1.5 on both a laptop and a desktop and keep all my files on a Lacie 250gig external. Since I switch back and forth between computers I set my preview files and conformed audio files to Same As Project, so everything is on the external. Because I've rendered then changed then rendered a lot, I thought I could save some space by deleting all my preview files and doing an almost final render. However, ever since I did that both my desktop and laptop are boggy, like it takes a second to catch up every time I click to do anything, which is really annoying. I'm almost done, but has anyone experienced this who knows a cure? What if I just stick to my desktop and change my Premiere settings to save the preview files and conformed audio to the desktop hard drive and keep all my video files on the external, then let it reconform all audio and rerender it? Think that would help? I may give it a try, but just wanted to see if anyone has been through this.

I happen to use n-Track Studio (http://www.fasoft.com/) for everything that my sound engineer doesn't do (he uses Cubase SX). I like n-Track, even though the interface can be kludgy...
