I am tryin to edit a multi angle concert. All Audio works fine until I right click my files, go to Multi-Camera and click enable. Then my audio doesnt play back anymore. I have "Audio follows video" selected in the muli-cam playback monitor as well. If i disable Multi-Camera on the files the audio works again. Please help. I sent the audio away to be mixed/mastered and want to get all my video editing done for when the file is back on monday.

    You need to enable all the audio tracks. See this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/premiere-pro/using/editing-multi-camera-sequences1.html#id_60276

    If you send the audio to be mastered/ mixed then that means you will have to sync it with the multicam sequence and start the live cut from there, But when you need to cut out anything later make sure you use the in and out markers then extract.

    I know I will have to re synch the audio after that is fine. I am using pluraleyes for all of that. My problem is once i have my clips synced. Here are the steps Im using after my clips are synched:

    1 - Create a new sequence called Multicam
    2 - Drag   already synchronized footage (all 3 cam angles + the 3 audio) "Sequence 1 sync" and place it on Video track 1 in "Multicam sequence" (sound is all good)
    3 - Select new file on Video track 1 in Multicam sequence
      - Right Click / Multi-Camera / Enable (now my sound is gone during play back)


    If I Rightclick / Multi-Camera / Enable again (disable) my audio comes back.

    Audio is fine that action occurs.

    If I go Window / Multi-Camera Monitor / Options Roll / "Audio Follows Video" it can be checked or not and still get no audio playback.

    You need to render the audio after enabling multicam.  (Just hit Enter.)
