Using airpods with Adobe Premiere CC 2017-- Distorted audio

When I use my AirPods they work great with my phone and all the MAC OS software (iTunes, Safari, etc) But when I use them in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2017-- they distort the audio. On wired headphones or through the internal speakers everything is fine. Obviously this is a problem as I am trying to edit the audio of my clips before exporting, but if I am not hearing the actual sound quality I don't know what edits to make.

From this point what I can tell it is an issue with audio output routing and it seems the adobe software is not routing it correctly. I saw a post on an adobe forum that said they work fine with the application Audition. Wondering if any other people are having this same problem and have found work arounds. Not sure if there is something apple can do or if adobe needs to change something.

Thanks 🙂

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2012), macOS Sierra (10.12.3), Air Pods

Try configuring to the AirPods properly:

Preferences>Audio Hardware:

Defaut Input & Defaut Output: AirPods

Master Clock: Out: AirPods

If this doesn't work try:

1) go to MacOs preferences and change input audio device to internal microphone.

2) Go to the utilities > Audio MIDI setup. Choose Built-in microphone as input device.

3) Then change in Premiere CC Sample Rate to 44000.

4) Restart Premiere CC.
