Sony Vegas and Media Studio Yep, I know they're not related, but they both fall in the Premiere Alternative bracket in my humble opinion! Post here for Ulead Media Studio or Vegas video problems or pointers...

Hi there.......
Question for Vegas 6.....
Can I, in the audio track, take the levels up and down at different points of the track, as per Adobe Audition ?
Cheers

Hi,

I've added a link to a screencast showing how to increase and decrease volume levels throughout an audio track.

I think this is what you were asking!!!!!

A good link from Gord, but you should also know that as well as that, you can also do it live, in real time, using track automation and controlling the volume fader as you listen to the track. That way takes the guess work out of where to alter volume, and is easily overwritable and correctable if you should get it wrong for any reason.

Okidokey.

1. Hover your mouse over the icons in the audio track until you Track Automation (to the right of track FX)

2. Click it, and select 'Automatic Write (touch)' and 'Show automation Controls'

3. Right click same icon and in Insert / Remove envelope, select volume.

4. The blue Level bar has now appeared on the track.

5. Play the track and move the volume fader up and down. You'll see the key frame points being added and the blue bar moves accordingly.

6. Got it wrong? No worries, go back, play it again and change the levels, it simply overwrites what you just added.

You can also do 5.1 panning etc by adding other envelops.

Let us know how it goes.

Andy

NB. When you've finished, unselect 'Show Automation Controls' and it locks it off so you can't accidentally undo all that hard graft.
