(a) The volume of the selected audio sample is displayed as a
wave form at the top of the Envelop window . Above you see a
representation of all soundtracks for a better overview .

(b) The volume of the selected audio sample can be increased
or reduced selectively in the volume display directly beneath

the wave form display by means of the rubber-band function .
In this case, first specify the editing points within the audio
sample at which the volume is to be increased or reduced .
Insert these points either by left-clicking in the volume display
close to the desired position, or by clicking on the Add button
beneath the volume display .
Now activate one of the new points either by clicking on it
directly, or by selecting it with the aid of the scrollbar and the
function for stepping through individual frames on the right-
hand side beneath the volume display . The color of the active
point changes from red to green . The point can then be posi-
tioned exactly as follows .

• Positioning in the volume display
Click on the activated (green) point again . It changes color
from green to blue . Drag the point horizontally to the desired
time position in the volume display . To increase or reduce
the volume, move the point upwards (louder) or downwards
(softer) . Note that the first and last points in the volume display
cannot be moved horizontally, i .e . against time . Left-click again
to confirm the position of the point .

• Positioning by means of the Level slider
After clicking on Position, the active point can be moved hori-
zontally to the desired time position . Next drag the Level slider
to the right to increase the volume or to the left to reduce it .

within the video, click on Range The start position can be
determined either by Position or by stepping through individual
frames . Click on the right-hand trackball button to adopt the
selected setting . Use the Level slider to select the volume at
the desired point in time .

Follow the same procedure with the remaining points in the
volume display until the desired result is achieved . Then create
the result .

(c) Using the Add button, insert an editing point after the cur-
rently selected (green) point in the volume display . Note that
a point cannot be inserted between two points located very
close to each other .

(d) Use the Remove button to delete the selected editing point
from the volume display .

left-clicking it or by stepping through individual frames .

• Click on Range.
• Mark the outer right-hand (last) point of the desired range by
left-clicking it .
