I began a project last week in DirectorSuite 2 that is a very long and detailed project. Before I started my project, I had edited video to increase volume and used AudioDirector to do it. It was a trial version and I wanted to try out the AudioDirector.

So, after using PowerDirector12 for a few days I decided to buy it. I didn't need the AudioDirector so I didn't buy the entire suite. I only needed the PowerDirector 12. I uninstalled DirectorSuite 2 before I installed PowerDirector 12.

But now, NONE of my audio is working! HELP!

I uninstalled and reinstalled SmartSound and it still doesn't work.

All of these audio clips are from the same large video but they have been split over the course of a 45 minute video. There are about 2 dozen smaller audio clips that match up to the video.

Welcome to the PD12 Forum. I am GUESSING here, since I don't use Director Suite nor Audio Director. I suspect that Audio Director creates a proprietary file that it can read and that Director Suite can read, once modifications have been done to the audio using Audio Director. I suspect that PD12, without Audio Director, can't "read" the audio modification instructions.

I am GUESSING that you have two options - purchase Audio Director, or, uninstall PD12, reinstall the trial version of Director Suite and then produce your video to your desired format. Then uninstall Director Suite, and reinstall PD12. You should have a produced file with audio that you can insert into your PD12 timeline. You will probably have to unlink the audio from the video and replace the first part of the video with a fresh clip from your media library to get rid of the watermark, and then produce and burn again.

Hope this helps. Hopefully someone knowledgeable about Audio Director might weigh in and correct me if any of my ASSUMPTIONS are incorrect. Let us know how you make out. Have a great day.
