Audio Sync Doesn't Work - similar audio, "match couldn't be found"

Hello everyone!

I have a weird problem. I've been using the Sync tool for a while now and it's always working for me. Before today I actually considered it kind of miraculous - saves a LOT of time (before I knew about it I used to sync manually, it's hell).

Anyways today - first time I'm using it on a new iMac (don't know if it's relevant but it might be so I mention it) - I tried syncing a video clip with an audio file recorded while filming on a neck-mic.

[Note: I know some people have asked a similar question about multi-cam editing. I have to say: this is a regular timeline, one camera and audio recorded while filming.]

After loading it displayed this message:

""Cannot synchronize one or more clips in the current selection because a match could not be found"

I tried messing around to see what's wrong. I noticed that in the sync settings I only have one Channel to choose to Track, I think there should be two of them... right?

I didn't film the video so I checked if it's even matching. Maybe it's really not there. It is.

Anyways, what should I do, I have several videos to sync and doing it manually can multiply my work on this project! hahaha HELP!

      Go to both on the timeline and set similar audio gain ... like right-click/ Audio gain, normalize all peaks to -6dB. Then try and sync them.

       

      I get this if one track is significantly lower in volume than the other.

      Hey, thanks for your response,

      the audio levels are similar,

      however in the syncing options "track channel" was not set to "mixdown".

       

      changing it to "mixdown" made the sync work.

      I have this same problem.  I capture my audio via microphones and record in Audition.  Then I bring the resulting mp3 into Premiere and sync with the audio in my video file.  This works perfectly nearly every time.  However, there are a few cases where the sync fails.  When I try to sync manually I notice that I can line up the start point just fine but over time the audio drifts off track.  It's as if they are recorded at different frame/timing rates.  I used Handbrake to convert the video file from Peak to Constant frame rate.  That didn't work either.

      I am not sure if the problem is with the quality audio file or the video file with the audio scratch track.  One or the other is someone getting distorted.  I have no clue how to fix it.

      Anyone else experience this problem?

      yes, i have the same problem.

      a match cannot be found when i try to sync, even though it IS matching: i have a camera's built in mic in the clip, and an audio neck-mic recording in a wav file, but when i try to sync - no match is made, this is terrible news.

       

      solutions?
