Help with audio on bad track

Mino

This is new to me. I have two hours of footage taken while a guy was giving a speach. Something went wrong, dirty heads I figure, and the audio drops out and is replaced by this terrible racket. It happened about three time during the shoot, and each time lasted anywhere fron 5 to 15 seconds. I can creatively edit this ba footage out, but when I do, I totally loose audio sync. So I slide the audio track back into sync, but a couple of minutes later it drifts out again. Why would this happen? As it is right now my only option seems to be to fade the bad audio out during the clogged head moments which still leaves the funky chicken garbled video up on screen.....Can anyone help me edit the crap out and retain audio sync?
 
Very easy to do, but the steps depend on your editing program. Might also get faster better results posting in the forum for whichever NLE you have.

By the way, I doubt the bad audio has to do with dirty heads. Maybe a cable problem or wireless interference.

Best of luck.
 
Thanks Wabbit...I'm using premiere 6.0 and the audio probs correspond with the video dropout. I'll try in premiere forum.
 
No Prob...personally I think a cat hair got in the gears or something. Both cats are being introgated and charges are pending!
