Question

Voiceover jumps to 0s

Trying to dub voice over from English to Dutch in Premiere Pro and the recording always starts at 0s when there is an In and Out. I am bound to make an error when I delete I/O. I need the recording to start at the PLAYHEAD. Like in the old days with tape...

This was a Tweet to @adobecare where ^KM asked me to move the question to here...

    I found if I clear my project in and out points, I can then record the voiceovers from wherever I set the playhead.  Once complete I than reinsert my in and out points.  You don't have to do it over and over, just once to keep it from going back to the beginning, then after your VO's are complete.

    This is an old thread, but I am *suddenly* having this same problem.  I've performed dozens of voice overs with no problem, using a USB mic, and starting my voice over narration wherever the playhead is.  All of a sudden, today, the playhead returns to the beginning of the timeline whenever I want to voice over, and then it WIPES OUT and previous audio on the timeline.  This is making voice over functionally impossible.  Please help.  I haven't changed ANY settings, since I successfully did a narration with voice over last week.

    Hi Embin,

    Can we get some more info? Are you using the VO tool? It should work as expected when setting In and Out points. Can't you merely place the Playhead on a desired In point? If that's an issue, let us know more details.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Hi Kevin,

    Sorry for the late reply, it has been a busy week

    I'm using the little mic in the sequencer, When IN and OUT are in the beginning and end of the part of the video I am working on, I can place the playhead where I want the record. But when I hit the little mic the playhead jumps to 0s (where in this case IN is).

    Can't help thinking that the Premiere forum might be a better place to post this than the Audition forum...

    Thanks SteveG.

    That is funny (or sad maybe), I got this link from Adobe Customer Care: https://twitter.com/AdobeCare/status/1008750991192285184

    Well now you've mentioned 'Customer Care', that explains a bit - they read 'voice over' but didn't take any note of the software you were using! Try posting it here: Premiere Pro CC
