Premiere ProA high-quality aural experience
Premiere Pro offers professional-quality audio editing tools that rival many stand-alone audio mixing and editing products. For example:
- Sample-specific edits Video typically has between 24 and 30 frames per second. Edits fall between frames at intervals of roughly 1/30 second. Audio typically has thousands of samples per second. CD audio is 44,100 samples per second (44.1kHz). Premiere Pro lets you edit between audio samples.
- Three types of audio tracks Mono, Stereo and 5.1 (six channel surround). You can have any or all of these track types in a sequence.
- Submix tracks You can assign selected audio tracks to a Submix track. That lets you apply one instance of audio and effect settings to several tracks at once.
- Channel editing You can split out individual audio channels from stereo and 5.1 surround sound files and apply effects only to them. For example, you can select the two rear channels in a 5.1 track and add reverb to them.
- Recording studio you can record any instrument or mic you can connect to an ASIO-compliant sound card. Record directly to a track on an existing sequence or to a new sequence.
- Audio conforming Premiere Pro upconverts audio to match your project's audio settings. In addition it converts so-called fixed-point (integer) data to 32-bit floating point data. Floating point data allow for much more realistic audio effects and transitions.
NoteFloating point data have no fixed number of digits before and after the decimal point; that is, the decimal point can float. This leads to more accurate calculations. Camcorder kHz and bit rate settings
