How do I shift clips and audio and adjust audio levels in CS5.5

OK, a couple of things.
I'm trying to shift everything over (this includes videos, some name supers, and unlinked audio) so I can insert some music here and there. I can drag the music on to Audio 2 or something, but I still want to scoot everything else over a couple of seconds. Is there an easier way to do this?
Secondly, I want to adjust the audio levels on the music. SO I want it to start off soft, grow louder, then back down until you don't even notice it. How would I do this? Thanks.

For the Nudging of multiple Assets, have you tried Selecting them all, and then using the Cursor Keys (arrows) to Nudge, one Frame at a time?
For the ramping up/down of the Audio Volumes, there are several ways to do that. Keyframing the Fixed Effect>Volume (in the Effects Control Panel) will allow one to adjust the Volume up/down over time. If you have never done Keyframing, then I would start with the Help File, as there are a lot of things to learn. Once, however, you have concepts and mechanics down, Keyframes are easy, and so very powerful. This article discusses several ways to adjust Volume/Gain, and might be useful: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3472343#3472343

  • How do I get FCP X to stop adjusting audio?

    FCP X automatically "removes background noise" from my music tracks and it sounds awful.  I can turn noise reduction back off but how do I make it stop analyzing and adjusting?  Thanks.

    That was it, Tom!  Thanks.  I don't know how that got checked but this will solve my issue!

  • How to retrieve a clip's in and out point?

    I have cut a clip appart and now I need to know at which frame of the clip the new clip fragment starts.
    Can someone please enlighten me on where to find this piece of information?

    Strange, if I do this at my machine, nothing happens...
    What action would this shortcut perform?
    I have created another, small, (hypothetical) case here:
    As you can see I have added the same video clip to the timeline twice:
    So in the sequence both start at frame 00:00:00:00.
    I trimmed both clips in the sequence. (BTW: What would the correct terminology for clips being added to the sequence be? Clips themselves can only reside in the Project window. Sequences may only contain links to those clips... So, just to be able to distinguish both, I'll call these links in a sequence 'clip links' here.) ...Thus, what I actually did was to trim both clip links in the sequence.
    As you can see from the thumbnails in the image, I trimmed each of the clip links at different clip positions.
    Although both clip links are of same length, I trimmed the clip link in track Video 1 to start at 00:00:00:00 while the clip link in track Video 2 has been trimmed to start at 00:00:15:07.
    Correspondingly, the clip link in track Video 1 ends at clip frame 00:00:03:05 while the clip link in track Video 2 ends at clip frame 00:00:18:13.
    These are the values I want to retrieve. After trimming I need to know exactly what is the first frame of a clip link that's being displayed.
    So I need to acquire the 00:00:00:00 - 00:00:03:05 for that clip link in track Video 1 and the 00:00:15:07 - 00:00:18:13 for the clip link in track Video 2.

  • How do I adjust audio levels at various points on timeline??

    How do I make volume level adjustments in a single clip on the FCP-X timeline?  I have a music bed and need to adjust audio levels at various points in the song.  In past Final Cut programs.  This should be very easy but I can't find how to do it in Final Cut Pro-X.  I don't want to adjust the entire clip.
    Also, I recorded voice on channel 2 and shot gun on channel 1.  I only want the voice (channel 2).  How can I select a individual channel once I have edited the piece.  I know I can re-import the video and designate which channel to bring in but I don't want to have to do that.
    Thanks!!

    Select a range and lower the level, or hold the Option key to click on the level line to add a keyframe.

    at the end, you say "import preferences", which program are you describing?
    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?
    All the footage, and all the libraries to all programs, or on a new pegasus 12tb raid 5 setup fyi.

  • How can I separate audio and clips?

    How can I separate audio and clips?

    I guess you mean "audio and video clips".
    Then select the clip including both audio and video (while in the timeline) and press cmd-L: this unlinks the stereo pair from its video. If you want to work on each audio channel separately press alt-L while the stereo pair is selected.

  • How to synchronize multiple, unorganized audio- and video clips

    I'm editing a video with audio recorded by an external recorder.
    I've been given a lot of unorganized files and I wonder if there's a quick way to synchronize them all without knowing which audio- and video file that fit together.

    I've been pretty amazed by how well the synchronize clips command works. You might take a chance and select all of your audio/video files at once, right click and choose Synchronize Clips.

  • How do I relink audio and sound mxf clips brought into Premiere CC. (works fine in CS5.5)

    How do I relink audio and sound mxf clips brought into Premiere CC.  Didn't have this problem in CS5.5 so unsure why they unlink in CC.

    I'm getting so many weird results. Most go away by simply closing the project and re-opening and I only have 6GB memory but even so, I'm disappointed by what I thought was supposed to be more "world class" video editing software than Sony Vegas Pro which I found to be a lot more stable. Also struggling with differences between Premiere and After Effects. Every time I want to do something in Pro I seem to need to go to After Effects and vice-versa. After Effects lets me do more of what I could "just do" in Vegas Pro timeline, but it's hideous for lining up audio and having to render anything in RAM to even get a clue as to what a change has done.  Need to add Audition to the long list as well I suspect. Fun times!

  • Video clips have perfect audio but no picture in Quicktime, VLC has perfect audio and jittery picture... How is this fixed?

    I have a Canon 550D and a class 6 Sandisk extreme 3 card which I have been taking great photos and film clips.
    Yesterday I captured some content and when I put it into my macbook pro, the images were clear as per usual however the videos only appeared to play the audio in aperture 3 and also in quicktime.
    I then tried the videos in VLC and it had perfect audio once again but with picture this time. This picture quality seemed to freeze.be jittery.
    Has anyone had/fixed this before..?? The content I have captured was of a once off opportunity for work...

    hi,
    thanks. i already have that. wmp 9 for the mac. (i forgot to post that in my list.)
    every darn thing i have does the same thing.
    audio but not video
    i clicked on "open in rosetta" for flip4mac and now it does open once more but the same...no video.
    i don't understand why nothing is working.
    do i have to upgrade fliprmac and buy it to make it work? i am not going to do that tho.
    this is really frustrating.
    i'm curious - suppose i send it to you - unless i can put it here somehow - and see if you can
    open and listen and watch?
    i tried it on my ibook and the same thing happened.

    Whenever I try to make a video on iMovie, the audio is not in sync with the video. This just happened recently. I have no clue what is causing the problem, or how to fix it. What should I do?

  • After detaching audio, audio and visual shift

    After I detached the audio from the video in a trimmed clip, the audio and visual both shifted from what point in the clip they were located before, making the person repeat what they just said. How can I fix this? I know better than to hope for a magical preference setting that will solve everything, but why does this happen? And how can I fix it? Are other people experiencing this issue?

    What part don't you understand?
    I have a trimmed clip that I detached the audio from. The portion of the video and the audio that is being displayed is a different part of the raw footage (<1 sec off).

  • How to get audio and video in one file

    hi...I am "premiere beginner user" and I have a simple question , I think..:)...Every time when I am trying to export media out from my premiere (using media encoder) I get video file and some audio files, but what I need is only ONE file, that contains both (audio and video)..for example , I have edited film in hd quality and I want it to export, I choose h.264 format(make some settings,pal,audio quality...) and when it´s "all done", only "result" I get is one video file and two audio files and they are not together :).....so please help mme anyone..ok and as you can see I am not from english speaking country, so sorry for my english...thanks for help....

    There is no indication that something is out-of-sync or the ability to move/slip into sync like in FCE/FCP.
    To the best of my knowledge, using match frame and overwriting the video with video+audio (or attaching it as a connected clip if you don't want to overwrite the video, which might have effects applied) is the best way to do this.
    You can use the blade tool first in the timeline to get just the section you want to get back into sync. Make cuts so that you have a single clip that needs the audio resynced, select it, and use shift-F to select the original synced clip in the Event Browser. Make sure your play head is at the beginning of this video clip in the timeline. Press option-2, then 'q', and now you have the audio back in your timeline, synced with the video.  Delete the old, no-longer-synced audio and you should be set.

  • Hi I shoot on a canon 5d mk11 and I record my audio on an external device yet when I open up my footage in final cut pro x I can't find my external audio files only the ones attached to the clip which are off the camera mic

    I shoot on a canon 5d mk11 and I record my audio on an external device yet when I open up my footage in final cut pro x I can't find my external audio files only the ones attached to the clip which are off the camera mic

    What device?
    What format?
    How are you importing it?
    Can you find the external audio with Finder?
    Where is your destination file when you import it?

  • How to fix problems between audio and video sync?

    Hello, I have this old camera DSR 200P and I'm trying to import to my final cut pro x. The importation success well but at the end the syncro between audio and video doesn't work. How can I fix it?
    It's possible my mac doesn't accept this kind of camera or should I change any options of final cut?
    Thank you

    I use to edit footage for a client that was recorded on a DSR-250 (successor of the DSR-200) and every time, every single time, the audio sampling rate would not match my Sequence settings of 48khz, 16bit.  The sampling rate of the captured video was always off by a slight amount. It might be 47999.9 one time and 48000.1 the next time ... but it was never at 48000 as it should have been.  I chalked it up to Sony using cheap synthesized crystals (frequency generator) to control the rate.
    Anyway, the fix was to export the captured clip using QuickTime Pro with the export's audio settings to 48khz, 16 bit.
