No animations on short sound clips

Hi,

I'm having a problem generating an animation from very short audio clips. When I bring them in, there doesn't seem to be any sound, and face fx doesn't generate an animation. It's like there's nothing there.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

I'm assuming this is a problem inside of FaceFX Studio, right? Are there any errors printed in the console? It could be that analysis is failing because the audio isn't at least 16kHz - 16bit.

Audio specs:

On really short files, FaceFX will still analyze them and display the audio. But the generated phonemes might not be terribly accurate if the analysis engine doesn't have enough data to get initialized properly.
