should not be hearing anything... but

I can't seem to figure out why I can still here this. I have edge edited every track and can still here the director saying phone call dialog. I have manually edited every volume. How is this possible. Could a Waves plug-in be causing this.

I was thinking I will have to try the wave form editor but honestly that is my personal weakest link with DP. I will definitely RTFM before I delve in.

I will take any suggestions here

I cannot tell from your description. Do you have bleed through an aux?

Have you solo'd each sound bite to find the offending track?

Is there one hidden from view or off your screen?

[jbyerly1]

No I have not soloed each track. yeah i guess in need to do that. No hidden tracks and have deleted the 2 Auxs I had. I still dont understand why edge editing does not do the trick

Hey, today I was trying to EQ a track and I couldn't understand why I couldn't hear any change. Ha! I was listening to the old mix. I didn't have input monitor turned on for the real-time mix track. Sadly, it's not the first time I've done that, and it won't be the last. Sometimes I actually thought my EQ moves made things sound better while I was making them.

You'll find the problem. It's probably something simple and stupid.

[mikehalloran]

You mention edge editing. Are you applying fades?

Dan, this is brilliant! Done the same kind of thing so many times

[jbyerly1]

What I was doing was removing the area in questions and edge edit to where it is good and apply the fades

Had a problem like this once...deleted EVERY track and could still hear the mystery audio. Turns out it was the audio embedded in an included quicktime video. Doh!

Couple of thoughts.

Is punch guard enabled? Shouldn't matter but its a pretty new feature and might have some issues.

More likely: sometimes edit windows from inactive chunks can be visible and editable but not sounding if they are not from the active chunk (sequence).

Close ALL windows and open your edit window from the active tracks window and try again. I suspect you'll find the problem.

A quick way to check and edit is to select the region and hit opt-spacebar. That should play only the selection.

Good call on the QT!

[jbyerly1]

Ok, I thought I was nuts because had every track muted and still hearing audio. Just opened the 720p mp4 file in quicktime and the dialog is there. Is there something I can do to disable or should I request another file from producer

[barreltone]

I usually just turn the volume all the way down in the movie window.

If you have QT pro, you can take out the audio and export the file.

Thank you for the help

If you're using Melodyne, that's another possible source. Once transfered, Melodyne reads from it's own files on disk.

Edit: Woops, I see you found the problem. Ignore that man behind the curtain.
