Question

Offset Audio in .mogrt (works fine in Ae, doesn't update in Pr)

Hello community,

 

I have created some .mogrt templates (title animations). To trigger the disolving animation, I created an Slider and linked it to the Essential Properties, so the disolve would start after an certain amount of seconds, the user could control. I have an "swoosh" audio and tried to link it by precomping and have the timeremap linked to the slider (simple valueAtTime expression). Works perfect in Ae, but doesn't update in Premiere. Anyone else struggled with offsetting audio in .mogrts?

 

Cheers,

Tobi

There is no possibility to automatically control, use, or add Audio to a Graphic in Premiere Pro. Graphics elements do not have an audio track. Only video sources can have video. 

 

If you want to incorporate graphics and audio in an AE based project you need to use Dynamic Link and do the editing in After Effects.

I still couldn't figure out any solution for this problem. Anyone as an hint or idea? I reduced to project to the specific problem and attached it. The screenshot should explain, how things are linked... Thanks

Premiere Pro doesn't do audio in MOGRTs, except play it where you put it in AE. There's no way to push its timing through a slider, or even switch it on or off manipulating the levels.

I have two practical solutions for this: Find your desired MOGRT settings in PP, then render the thing out in AE and replace the MOGRT, or – in case you have discreet usecases – export the audio for each case in AE and plug the corresponding audio file into the PP audio track. It's insane...

It's another chapter in the minboggling book called "Hey, why deal with the basics, look, look! All those shiny bells and whistles! That's $60pm BTW."
