Sony Vegas Users:
I am currently trying to complete a movie and we are having difficulty with audio. I believe this to be a software issue. Here's the story:
I am running a MacPro 3.0 GHz Quad Core with 8 GBs of Ram. I am using Boot Camp to run Windows XP 32bit. Windows only recognizes 2 GB or Ram. I don't believe that to be an issue. It's running plenty fast.
As for the movie. We cut the movie on Vegas 7.0 on a different computer. We bought a CalDigit HDPro 4TB raid to complete the editing. I transfered 4 external drives to the Raid. Knowing that I could have Vegas find missing files I cleaned up my files and rearranged the folders on my hard drive. I didn't delete anything but just rearranged them. I opened the project file in Vegas 8.0 and after finding all the missing files it opened perfectly. The video plays flawlessly and most of the audio does too.
However a few audio tracks have missing peaks and audio. To clarify, the audio tracks are in the time line but parts of the peaks and audio are missing. In some instances one channel of the audio track is all static. I played the source clips in Windows Media player and they play perfectly. So it's not the source clips. I thought it might be a .sfk conflict so I deleted about 3,000 of them and had reopened the project. It rebuilt itself and the problem was still there.
I thought it might be an 8.0 problem so I reloaded 7.0 and tried that. Nope, the problem was still there. So I'm back in 8.0. I disabled Media Manager in 8.0 and that didn't work either.
I have no idea what this might be. I am going to take some screen shots and see if I can post them on the forum. It will be screen shots of the audio files in the time line with missing peaks.
I hope someone can help. I really want to get this movie behind me.
Thanks,
Michele
