Question

Premiere Pro CS5 not exporting audio

Hi all,

I've already searched Google and these forums extensively but can't seem to solve this problem even with all the solutions I've seen. I've never had any trouble in the past with exporting and/or audio, but the project I'm working on won't export properly.

I'm exporting a ~4 minute video with a mix of camera (Canon 60D) audio, audio from my Rode mic, and an mp3 as background music. The audio plays fine in the timeline, but I can't seem to get the export settings right. I've tried H.264, Vimeo HD, and exporting JUST the audio to no avail. The audio is AAC, which I've tried 48 and 44.1 kHz.

The video exports perfectly in 1920 x 1080 but has absolutely no audio.

Can anyone help me with this? The render time is super long on my old Macbook so I've just been exporting sections at a time.

Thanks! Let me know if I should provide any additional information.

Edit: I've also tried exporting through Media Encoder CS5; same result.

    SOLUTION: I fixed mine.

    Turns out if you have any sort of secondary audio interface software like equalizer, or volume booster (culprit was Breakaway for me), etc. Adobe gets confused and exports the wrong thing basically. Within Premiere it plays the right channels, but when exporting, it doesn't pick it up.

    So my solution was to shut down anything except for the main sound card, and presto! Hope that helps

    I have a few questions/ideas that may or may not be of any help. Anyways though here you go

    Do other projects you have on your computer export audio okay?

    Have you tried sending the audio to Adobe Soundbooth and seeing if you can save the audio that way?

    Have you tried making a new sequence and copying and pasting all your content in the timeline into the new sequence then attempting to export?

    Have you tried other export options other than just h.264, like Microsoft avi or Quicktime possibly?

    I know that previous projects have exported audio just fine, but I'll try another one now to make sure.

    Also, I'll download Soundbooth and try the other solutions too and post shortly. Thanks man!

    Please do report as I am now experiencing the same problem. I cannot export audio AAC or AIFF.... It was working until recently. I've tried it on seperate sections of the sequence. Any solutions appreciated.
