Does Premiere Pro have waveform effect?

[Deaf_Guy]

I'm taking over a project. My colleague is running a podcast through AE so she can use that waveform sound effect that looks like a VU meter as the sound plays for visual interest. I believe he's then importing the AE file into Premiere.

To possibly simplify things, does Premiere 2020 have this capability so it's not necessary to do it in AE first then Premiere? I ask because I've been using the older version of Creative Suite and will upgrade to 2020 and need to know if that is now possible.

Thank you.

The Audio Visualisation Effect is typically a VFX effect achieved in AE, which you can then dynamically link inside PPro. To my knowledge there is no built-in video effect that allows for visual representation of audio waveforms, unless you make a screen recording of the on screen audio meter levels in PPro and then import that into PPro as a video track and mask out the parts you don't want to have.

OK thank you I appreciate you letting me know this.
