[Premiere 2017.1 BUG] Wrong Peak Amplitude / Incorrect normalize on Audio Clips

Steps to Reproduce Bug:

1. Select an audio clip or many audio clips in timeline, right-click, audio gain.

2. Peak amplitude is a non-valid value in random clips (eg. 346dB)

3. Normalize all peaks to any level

Results:

Muted clips (clips with extremely low gain, e.g. -346dB)

I already reported it. Tried on empty project with all cache manually deleted.

Anyone else having this?

Same problem! Sometimes normalize is not working, sometimes is bumping up all over peaking and sometimes just silence and straight line. Very sad for my projects. Hope to fix it soon too.

I have the same problem. Doesn't matter if it is a new project or a previous project. The peak values are crazy numbers: 254 or 652 etc. I hope there will be an update to solve this problem soon.

Got the same problem but have a easy workaround. Just undo the action (command Z) when it becomes a block (audio gain goes trough the roof) and do the same action again, so  repeat the same normalization you did before the. So basically undo once and do it again. The gain will be done correctly. Hope this helps !

I try this and it doesn´t work in my case. Actually, I´m not getting the "block gain" situation but it the audio gain is reduced to a line (completely muted) when I try to normalize it.

Same problem. Using normalization in Audacity for now, but .. you know, it's not quite as good as Premiere Pro.

Have you tried using Audition? You can send the audio round-trip to Audition, which of course has a wider tool set for audio than PrPro ... by a long way.

This is major issue as Audio Gain is clearly broken in Premiere Pro 2017.1 and there is no option to revert to a previous version as recommended by Adobe: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2233693​. The latest version of Creative Cloud Version 4.0.1.188 doesn’t have a "VIEW PREVIOUS VERSIONS." option and the discussion thread is locked:

Sign out of Creative Cloud desktop app, reboot the computer and check back in. Perhaps uninstall and then re-install if necessary. I have the same version, and yes, it does have the line below those with the 'View Previous Versions" option there.

Your CC Desktop app is not working properly.

Is it possible you had already installed an earlier release of Premiere Pro prior to installing 2017 e.g. CC 2015? There is no option to regress to an earlier version through Creative Cloud if the software wasn’t already installed before the upgrade. I may be wrong but it looks as though you can only go back a whole release number, not from 2017.1 to 2017. I’d be happy to be proved wrong though!

I have the same issue, audio normalization is basically broken - every audio clip shows a different 300-500db peak value - so any normalization based on peak silences the clip.

The fact that this got through QA without being spotted is just not acceptable.

The fact that Adobe auto installs the latest version on newly activated systems makes it difficult to avoid accidentally bringing a project into a new version - and then there is no ability to go back without losing work.

I was already dealing with several basic technical bugs in CC2017 and now there are more to deal with.

The rapid succession of new subscription-only versions means that I run a serious risk of getting updated during a move between systems (as happened here) or being forced to update in order to collaborate on a project with others that have already taken the plunge - and every time that happens there is a seemingly larger risk of the Premiere having more functionality issues and basic QA problems.

So, I have pretty much lost confidence in Premiere as a viable editing platform.

Same here! Really annoying. I have videos that needs to get out the door. What's the best workaround? Normalize the audio in Soundbooth?
