Default Adjusting multiple clips volume levels???

Hi,

i'm new to video editing, but have been getting on fine with premiere except for one thing - i may be just missing it but i can't see how to adjust the audio levels of several video clips all at the same time.

For example - a project I just worked on has about 100 clips in total, of which approximately the middle 60 are just landscape and are set to music with no sound..

I can only work out how to reduce the sound levels of those clips individually...... surely i must be able to group a batch of several together and reduce down together -

could anyone give me some advice please? maybe I'm missing something?

Thanks

Just guessing and thinking out loud because I'm at work and don't have Premiere in front of me but can't you just highlight all the relevant clips and, instead of trying to rubber band them, use the effects palette and adjust the volume from there. I would hope that if multiple clips were highlighted it would work against all of them at once from there.

Or, and I suspect this will work also. Take your sequence with all your clips on it and next it into another sequence. From that perspective it is now a single clip and you should be able to adjust the volume accordingly.

Let me know if either (or both) of these work.

Not really. Only one on Picture in Picture, but I think you were involved in that thread.

Well, I actually met up with Marc at the Videoforum show on Tuesday and as to the comment above, well, I'd never embarrass a mate by contradicting him in public
