Hear your Premiere Pro edit on your iPhone

Most people will watch your video on a phone. Phonecast plays your Premiere Pro edit on your iPhone speaker while you work.

01Open Phonecast on your Mac and on your iPhone. Connect them with a USB cable or the same Wi-Fi.
02In the Mac menu bar, click the Phonecast icon, then Send Mac audio to iPhone. Your Mac's sound output changes to Phonecast.
03In Premiere Pro, open Settings, then Audio Hardware. Under Default Output, choose Phonecast and click OK.
04Press play in Premiere Pro. Your edit plays on the iPhone speaker.
05Use the USB cable while you edit. It keeps the sound in step with the picture. Over Wi-Fi it arrives a moment late.
06When you finish, click Stop sending to iPhone, then set the output in Premiere Pro back to your normal speakers.

What to listen for

  • Your voice under the music. The phone app tells you when music is covering the voice.
  • The level for where you post. Pick the place in the phone app and it says turn it up, turn it down, or leave it.
  • Low volume. Turn on Quiet speaker to hear it the way many people watch.

No sound on the phone?Check that the Phonecast app is open on the iPhone. Then check that Default Output in Premiere Pro is set to Phonecast.
The sound is out of step with the picture?That is the Wi-Fi delay. Plug in the USB cable.
