I Cannot Figure this out! How Do I Lock a Track In Adobe Premiere Pro?

Hi everyone!
I'm from the Final Cut Pro world, getting acclimated to Adobe Premiere Pro and am wondering how do I lock a track on the timeline? The audio and video are synced which is what I want, it's just one thing I want to change within the audio. However, when I select and delete this one portion of the audio, it deletes the video as well. This seems over complicated to perform. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

How can I lock a track volume level to never move in Garageband?

Hi there
I'm currently creating a backing track of a popular song and I have built up all the parts of the songs against a wav track which contains the original version of the song.
I want to be able to mix the volumes of the tracks Ive built to the main proper recording, but I need to be able to LOCK the actual wav song track at say the 1.7db mark. Is this possible?
As I cant do it now, I keep accidently adjusting the volume level of the actual wav song track, so then all my volume mixes on other tracks are rendered useless (As you cant UNDO a volume change back to how it was)
Even if I engage the padlock "lock" button on the actual wav song track I can still move the volume of that track up and down. So its not 100% locked in my opinion.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi
Do you mean:-
Select the track
Click Down Arrow
Make sure Track Volume is selected
Click on the dot that has been created at the start of the track (to check its number level)
Click on the line now showing at the very end of the song and make sure the NEW dot you've just created is at the same number level as the one at the start.
As this seems to work.
If I dont put any dots on it, you can move it as you please still.

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I delete a track from GarageBand?

I'm using an ipad 2. I've tried and succeeded but I think I did so by accident. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to delete a track from GB on the iPad. I've tried tapping and such, and nothing pops up like before.
Thanks for your support,

I don't want to complicate things - BUT . . .
Did you really mean delete a Clip from your Hard Drive - or did you mean delete the Clip from your FCP browser window (as Shane described)?
When you capture footage to the Hard Drive, it's saved as a Media File in your Capture Scratch folder . . .
Deleting the clip from the FCP browser (as Shane described) will leave the original Media File (still taking up space) in your Capture Scratch folder on your HD.
Final Cut Pro > System Settings will tell you which your Capture Scratch folder is.
If you really want to delete the Media File from the Hard Drive, this is where to go to use Finder to move it to the trash. If you do this, then empty the trash, the file will be lost.

On garageband 10.0.1 i locked the tracks on a project and now can't unlcok them. What to do?

Does the track lock show in the Track heads? If not, use the Track manu to show the Track locks. in the Track header
Tracks > Track header > Show track locks.
When the locks are showing in te Track headers, press them to disable them.

How to delete a region from a garageband track?

how to delete a region from a garageband track?
Can't find how to select 30 seconds of my recorded voice so that I can delete it from a voice track.

Can't find how to select 30 seconds of my recorded voice
First you have to cut the track. Position the crosshair at the bigging of the region you want to remove and type ⌘T to split the track, do the same for the end of the region. Then double click the region and type delete ← to remove it.

Trying to add audio narrative to a Slideshow via vocal track on Garageband-won't take. How can I do this for illiterate friend?

I have set up a Slideshow on iDVD with the intention of adding a narrative and burning a dvd, so a friend of mine who can neither read nor write will be able to watch the pictures while listening to the narrative. I have produced a narrative by using the Male Vocal track on Garageband, but when I try to drop the result into the Audio box at the base of the Slideshow Edit Window, it won't take. I know that only certain types of audio will work, but I thought Garageband would do the job.
If I can't do it that way, how can I make a suitable narrative without putting it separately onto a cassette tape?
Using an iBook G4, running OSX 10.4.11– the latest system I can run.

Save the Garageband track as an aiff or mp3 file and use that.

How to lock mp3 tracks on my iweb site? (tracks i made with GB3)

hi
i have a private iweb site, containing about 5 or 10 songs.
i use to send the link to friends only, a small group.
now i had the idea to publish a link in the blog at my myspace site.
the quality of the tracks at myspace is poor, its only 22,5khz when playing tracks in the standalone audioplayer of myspace.
my mp3s sound better, 320bit, best encoding with lame.
is it possible to "Lock" the tracks somehow, in order to prevent that everbody can download it easily? i wouldnt mind if some people with heavy skills figure out how to download it, but i wouldnt like to offer the tracks to everybody as downloadable item.
i heard that you can overlay a layer/box which is invisible. is that right?
my simple page:

thanks for any help

If you put your songs on your website anybody can record them using the appropriate software. I wonder how many people actually bother to do this! Normally you would edit out a clip and publish this as a sampler if you don't want people "stealing" your songs.
If you want to sell your songs on MySpace you can set up your own site there and sign up with SnoCap. They do all the work for you.
For an example go to...

Editing podcast audio in Garageband 10.0.2 - how do I crop/edit tracks?

Hello, I'm trying to crop/edit pre-recorded audio tracks in Garageband 10.0.2 and cannot find a way to do it! Help! I've found it to be very simple in other Apple software like iMovie, but can't work it out in Garageband. Advice is welcome.

Hey StephLWells,
Thanks for the question. You may find some helpful information in the GarageBand Help resource:

Help with exporting tracks from Garageband into iTunes please?!

I have voice-recorded a list of Italian words and phrases which I want to import into iTunes as separate tracks so that I can shuffle them & test myself to learn them. So far I have been using the cycle region to import each word but it is taking forever! I beieve it is not possible to have multpile cycle regions and have been playing about with the markers using the podcast track but I can't get it to export in chapters either.
Is there a way to split a single track in Garageband and import it as mulitple tracks into iTunes all at the same time?
Thanks for any help you can give me!

vanessa2011 wrote:
the chapters only work when you actually burn to CD. I assume that's correct?
for your purposes, yes (technically it would create podcast style chapters so you could jump past a section, for instance, but not in a shuffle fashion like you want)
vanessa2011 wrote:
I'm guessing that will take an awful lot of CDs?!
you could use a re-writtable, but no, this doesn't sound like a really workable solution for what you're doing.
vanessa2011 wrote:
Just two of the chapters has already become 220 'songs' in iTunes and over 20MB.
one thing you should be doing is selecting the "compress" option in the export dialogue. you can probably use very aggressive compression for spoken word since hi-fidelity wouldn't be that important (you might experiment with a custom setting to see how low you can go with it still being acceptable)

I wonder how much would fit onto a CD
in terms of audio, it's time, not disc space. a standard CD holds 74 minutes of audio (some store 80)
you could try an audio editor instead of GB:

but GB is probably the most simple option

How do you combine audio tracks in quicktime 10.2

Students in my class recorded some voice overs in multipe clips. We want to combine them into one track in quicktime 10.2. However the choice to copy the track is grayed out. How can we combine the tracks into one in quicktime 10.2?

You don't. Use QT 7 Pro or GarageBand instead. (Video editors will also merge multiple audio tracks but they are likely more limited than QT 7 Pro which allows up to 99 data tracks.) GarageBand, also based on older QT 7 Pro technology, allows you to segment tracks, set track or selected track segment volumes to duck track or track segments, adjust or "rubberband" master track volumes, adjust stereo pan for track or selected track segments as well as, "slide" tracks or track segments along the time axis and apply numerous enhancements beyond my ability to even remember here.

How do i record 2 tracks at the same time.

i use a mixer to hook my mics into garageband, what i want to do is have 2 separate tracks and have them able to record at the same time. ive made separate tracks for each mic but i can only highlight one at a time to record so i need to figure out how i can have both tracks highlighted and giving me levels. if anyone can shed some light on this for me that would be great. i get the feel like theres a simple solution to this.
