Changing Audio Levels in a Clip
Changing Audio Levels in a Clip
You can adjust the audio levels within a clip by adding and manipulating fade control
points in the Timeline, which is known as rubber banding.
To change the audio level in a clip:
1. Expand the audio track to reveal the fade control line.
2. To adjust the audio level in a clip, do one of the following:
• To adjust a specific point in a clip, click on the red line to create a fade control
point. Using the fade control point as a pivot, click on another point in the audio
track and drag the red line to raise or lower the level.
• To raise the audio level for the entire track in a clip, click the fade control line
and drag it up in the track. If fade control points exist, you need to click on a
point before raising the level.
• To lower the audio level, click the fade control line and drag it down.
• To raise or lower the sound level for the entire track in a clip while preserving
the positions of the existing fade control points, press the ALT key, click one of
the fade control points, and while holding down the left mouse button, drag the
fade control point up or down. Release the mouse button while still holding the
ALT key.
If your audio levels are still too low or too high after adjusting the fade control line to
its maximum or minimum value, you can make further adjustments by changing the
audio gain (see
“Adjusting Audio Gain” on page 82 ).
Removing Fade Control Points
To remove a fade control point, press Ctrl + click on the fade control point. Notice that
the cursor changes to a red hand, allowing you to click and remove the control point.
To remove all of the fade control points for a selected audio clip, right-click within
the clip and select
Clear Fade Control Points .
You can also remove an area of fade control points:
1. Set a Mark In and Mark Out point to indicate the section of fade control points to
remove.
2. Right-click on the audio track and select Clear Fade Control Points Area .
All fade control points between the Mark Points, on active tracks, are deleted.
To clear all of the fade control points in a sequence, click the Clear Audio Automation
button.
