Loud Static Screams in Headphones in Premiere after Clip Edited in Audition

It hasn't happened in a while, but it has before. I will send a clip from Premiere Pro CS6 to be edited in Audition CS6 and when I go back to premiere to play the clip I get super loud static in my head phones and it really hurts my ears.  Not really the safest thing and most definitely a bug.  Just plain not cool.  It really scares the crap out of me.

This screeching noise occurs for me WITHOUT the use of Audition, but rather when I use "Audio Effects" directly in Premiere. When I turn the effects off, the noise does not happen. The two effects (and I'm not about to try to figure out which one because this noise sucks so bad) are "De-Hummer" and "Dynamics".

This is extremely frustrating, as it blew my headphones and it probably did some real damage to my ears. UNACCEPTABLE. Adobe - please address this issue!

I also should add that this only occurs when I'm using clips that are within a nested sequence.

I have this problem too. Never had it before. Crazy annoying. I'm using the most current versions of Premiere and Audition CC 2014

It's a bummer that more people are having this issue, because it can be a serious health concern.

I informed Adobe over a year ago. I hope they are working on this bug.

I have this problem too and it is indescribably annoying! It makes me feel physically unwell. This problem has persisted from Adobe CS6 all the way through CC 2014. It is caused (perhaps) by the lag time between dynamic linking from Audition to Premiere. I have to wait for the audio clip to reload and show that it has been changed in Premiere. I cannot play it immediately, otherwise I have the sound of death fill my ears at the loudest level imaginable. Sometimes though, even if I wait for the clip to change the sound still stays and then I have to undo the dynamic link and re-edit the clip in Audition. I am really surprised more people haven't had this problem, I have had it since I started using CS6 all the way to this very day. I do however edit all of my files from an external hard drive plugged into USB 3.0 to my MacBook Pro 15" retina display- which has 8GB of RAM.

ADOBE!

Why is this still happening? This happened twice to me again today with headphones on. The volume level this produces is way above threshold and I'm starting to fear for my hearing. It gives me an instant headache and really ruins a day of editing.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Right click an audio file in premiere and select edit in- adobe audition.

2. Apply filter and render in audition.

3. Switch back over to premiere and get your ears blasted out.

Any solutions? This is something seriously wrong as it's overriding my system volume limits. This means it has to be at the kernel level that adobe's software is screwing with.

this issue is so bad that im literally NEVER USING AUDITION AGAIN.

Any chance the Dev team can look into this? We've been experiencing the same issue and waiting a few beats after jumping back into Premiere and allowing it to conform the revised audio does avoid the burst of static, as others here have advised thanks. But all it takes is a momentary lapse of concentration or some muscle memory to cause permanent hearing loss - as I can attest. Any way in future versions of Premiere it can just output silence instead of ear drum crippling static when playing unconformed linked audio? Cheers

I have formed the habit of being patient with the conform loading bar, like you said.  Glad I'm still not alone on this, but it should be fixed with a anti-clipping saftey mute or something.  I forget once in a while to wait before playing back in the timeline though.  My ears hate me for that. And my heart. haha.

I'm having the same issue (2014, latest version). Was this ever solved? I can't find anymore information regarding it online.

I am having the same issue. BTW, I am using a Mac Pro. I right-click on a clip in Premiere Pro CS6, edit in Audition, remove the noise, save and then return to my editing in Premiere Pro. The file appears to be the one I edited in Audition (it is now green, not blue). If there were numbers above 0 in VU meters, it would jump to 100. It is loud (and dangerous) to hearing. Everything said about this process is being followed. What are we supposed to do? Find a work-around for a feature that is integral the application?

It looks like Premire Pro has to conform the audio. This is dangerous to the hearing. Mute the audio and wait for the conform to happen, and then playback the audio--if you do not wait, then unsafe dB levels will be played.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the same exact issue as well. Like you said, you have to let it conform a bit. Sometimes it takes longer than others.  I started a habit to hit play with my headphones muted and then turn up the volume once I see it is safe to play just like you have stated as well.  At least we have both found a short term solution for now to save our ears.  I just wish it had a safety or something to prevent that from happening.  Just have to be patient with it. We get so antsy with new technology. haha.

I've had the same as you describe problem once or twice between P-Pro generations 1.5 though CS6. Also in Audition with many mp3s created with garage band. Audition can't open the .mp3, then it recommends that you try to extract raw information from the file, the result is that screech that you describe. I think that it comes down to corrupted or poorly encoded files.

When you make a round trip from premiere to audition, save a copy of your audition work as .wav where ever you are keeping your project's media. It might come in handy.

Stephen,

Interesting about the MP3's. Other than for tiny SFX files, I always convert any MP3 to PCM/WAV first (PrPro can do that with Render/Replace), so have not noticed what you, and others describe, and my ears are very thankful...

Thanks for that mention. and good luck to the OP,

Are you working in 5.1 or stereo? I am having a similar problem when I mix surround and stereo in the same project, often Premiere does not seem to switch between the two and I too get a loud screech static noise.
