Adobe Premiere & Premiere Pro discussions from 2004

[Kin Kwan]

yes.

[Rob Lohman]

First: I've renamed and moved your thread to better reflect
the content.

I'm not too sure on your question either, but I'll give it a go.
Which version of Premiere Pro are you using? What are the
EXACT audio details of the tracks you are mixing (ie kHz and
sample rate)? I've had problems in the past with Premiere
to mix different rates like 48 kHz for DV with 44.1 kHz for
MP3/DVD. Try converting everything to 48 kHz / 16 bit that
isn't.

...mmm, does this 'yes ' means too risky or that it's possible?

[Rob Lohman]

Are you sure Premiere supports the 24p modes from the DVX100a
yet? I was under the impression that it wasn't. As you are saying
it is still 29.97 fps. Why not just capture in that format? That
should work regardless. Then figure out if you can edit it as 24p
or not.

[Rob Lohman]

That it is possible. Although AVID usually has less "support" for
laptop editing. Ofcourse if you already have the laptop try out
the various demos on the machine before plunking down the
money. I'm running Vegas fine on my laptop for example.

alright, i wonder what would be the results of a poll about the cinema effect with premiere pro. what do you guys think is the best way to lose that ugly video image? in premiere pro postproduction of course.

Hi Jeremy,
I'm new to Premier Pro too, but I think I’ve got up to speed now.

(Forgot how to do the web link thing)

The above site has some free tutorials. But I don’t know if they are exactly what u are looking for.

Total training also do some DVD lessons, obviously at a cost. There’s one for $49.00 I think (don't know how much in proper money). It shows you the basics (got mine free with my Matrox card)

Hope this helps.

Alright..i am using Adobe premiere pro first released version. I use always 48k...no problem with the sound...What i mean to say is when i capture some clips have low voice... using volume control in stereo mode i can increase to a certain extent. the next clip is my song say .mp3 . The question is when we move from clip to other clip it changes. I want to know how to maintain particular audio level through out the length of the video.

thanx

thanks Richard, will check that out! Cheers...

Hello,

Premiere Pro 1.5 support 24P, it as not suppported in v1.0.

Does Windows Movie maker see the camera? are you able to capture with it? I don't think WMM supports 24P but do you get video in the capture window?

I'm sure there are a few people using a DVX100A with PP, and have it working OK.

Maybe try a re-install?

Cheers,

[Rob Lohman]

Lukah: there is no easy magic button/setting kind of thing.

It takes a lot more then "just" post-production.

We have an entire forum dedicated to this, click here to go there.
Read the threads and posts in that forum and you should have
an idea of what everyone is doing etc.

[Jonathan Stanley]

Rob is right, this is a complicated issue. However, here are some things you can do to help. Start by adding pseudo-wide screen bars (use the clip plugin, top and bottom set to 13). Another easy way to play with the color is to use the plugins from Magic Bullet. You can download these for free from Canons website when you register your copy of premiere pro.

Another, less obvious way to improve your productions is to not neglect the audio. Bad audio is the number one mistake with amatuer video.

Hope that helps

Pitch?

Do you mean the music or voices sound higher (as in Chipmunk voice) or lower (as in Mr. Big) to each other.

Or do you mean volume, as in one clip is louder than the other?

I'm a bit confused here. Can you explain your problem in a bit more detail? Which clip has the problem when you play it in premiere? The mp3 or the sound you captured?

[Lukah Sighs]

hi,

must sound as a rather stupid question for you die hard premiere pro users...but anyway, how can i make a splitscreen? on the left and the right side an image, seperated with black. there is no transparancy thing in pro like in 6.5.

thanx!

[Steven Gotz]

There are a few ways to do this. One is using a garbage matte. But since you want a black line, I suggest that you use the crop effect on the top track.
