2 Click the bar at the point at which you want to begin increasing or decreasing the clip

volume.

A marker appears.

3 Drag the marker up or down to increase or decrease the volume from that point to the

end of the clip.

You can create as many markers as you need to adjust the volume as finely as you

want. To make the volume adjustment more gradual, drag the small end of the marker

to create more of a slope.

To delete a volume level marker:

Select the volume level marker and press Delete.

To make the audio clip fade in and out:

1 Select the clip in the timeline viewer.

2 Choose View > Show Clip Volume Levels.

3 Click a point on the volume level bar where you want to adjust the volume.

A marker appears.

4 Drag the marker to where you want the sound adjustment to end (if fading in) or begin

(if fading out).

5 Drag the smaller point on the marker up or down, depending on whether you want

the volume to get louder or softer.

You can adjust how rapidly the volume changes with the slope of the marker.

Locking Audio Clips in Place

When your audio clips are lined up with your video the way you want, you can lock

them to the video so that if you move a video clip, it won’t misalign your audio.

To lock audio to video:

1 Position your audio clip where you want it to begin in your movie.

2 Choose Advanced > “Lock Audio Clip at Playhead”.

The pins indicate that the audio clip is locked to the video clip.
