How to use pen tool to adjust audio levels

Hi,
I've been using the pen tool to adjust the audio levels in FCE. When I do, however, I get curved line segments (kind of like a parabola) between the audio keyframes. I'd like to get something easier to control... i.e. straight line segments. Is this possible? How would I accomplish this?
Thank you!

Add a couple more keyframes and adjust them so the line is straighter. You can drag the keyframes along the audio line & move them up & down to adjust the shape of the curve.
The default shape is curved in order to align with what the human ear considers a 'normal' change in audio levels to be. Human aural sensitivity to changes in audio levels (aka loudness) is not linear - it is more or less logarithmic in shape. That's why the curve.

  • How to add a 'stoke path' using 'pen tool' on CS6 (mac)?

    I'm a beginner at photoshop and I'm only 14 years old. I need to know this for my GCSE project.
    I'm trying to create something similar to this:
    Using pen tool and stroke path, but when i use the pen tool I'm not sure how to add the stroke path like that.
    I've used CS4 previously at school and when you right clicked on the path it came up with this:

  • How to adjust audio level on timeline?

    Hi,
    I want to adjust the audio level using the pen tool on an audio track of the timeline... and I've done it before, but I can't for the life of me remember how. I've imported a voiceover, and have a separate track with the background music. How do I adjust the music level up/down at the point where the narration kicks in/out?
    Thanks very much!
    Vic

    Click on the Clip Overlays button (the zig-zag line at the bottom left of the Timeline window). That will give you a pink line in the middle of your audio tracks where you can use the pen tool.

  • How to use bone tool without getting my vector/object distort?

    Wish to get some help here. I drawn my human body figure using pen tool. I connect the bone tool directly without separating the part of (hand,legs and head) into symbol. After that, I try to move the hand but it get distort. Not just the hand but the body and head also getting distort as well. Do we need to necessary convert the body parts to symbol first before connecting the bone? Thanks.

    > So, is it right if I say that the services available in the backend are already implemented? And just creating an endpoint for them would make them ready for use?
    Yes: kind of instant services 
    > Also if I consume a service, say, 'CreateSalesOrder_In' for example, will it create entries in all my Sales order relevant tables (VBAK, VBAP) automatically using a BAPI internally?
    The service has the task to do all necessary steps, whether with or without using a BAPI.
    > Actually,  I have these doubts because during my time at SAP Labs (for the composites team in BusinesByDesign), I used to create business objects in the ESR and create an implementation for the same in the backend using BOPF. But now, in the customer scenario, where a full fledged ECC implementation is used, I am unaware as to how the services would update the tables or even read the relevant data.
    My consumer view on aservice is that I do not have to know how the service works, just need to know how to call it.

    Steve,
    I am trying to draw a nice curvy BOW using the pen tool.How can i draw a nice curvy stroke using pen tool with thickness control.
    Can any one help me ?
    You may draw the spine of the bow with the Pen Tool and apply a custom made Artbrush to it; the Artbrush should be a fill no stroke shape reflecting the relative thickness along the relative length (the thickness (height) of the brushed path will be the thickness of the brushed stroke at 1pt Stroke Weight, and the length of the shape is arbitrary, so it can be set to 8, 10, 100, or whatever, because the brush strtches to the length of the path).
    And you may draw half the bow, reflect (Object>Transform>Reflect) and distribute (Align>Distribute), and join the halves.

  • 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.

  • Hi Any body Knows How to use CAT Tool for Up Loading?

    Hi
    If any body knows how to use CAT Tool for up loading transactions, explain the steps.
    Our requirement is, we want to up load transactions like Oppor , Quotation,Order etc...we want to up load these transcations from Local system to CRM Server
    how to do this? Let me know the steps.
    Regards
    Venkat

    If you have 10,000 or less, CATT is a reasonable method, but I would suspect that you have far more than that if you're needing to load transactions.
    LSMW is probably a better way to go if you have more than 10k, but I am not familiar with LSMW

    Look on your computer. Under the directory where your JDK is installed you'll find a "docs" directory. Under that there's a "tooldocs" directory and in that there's a file "tools.html". Look in there.

  • How to use eyedropper tool?

    Hi Everyone,
    How to use eyedropper tool?
    Please describe to me.

    Hi, yes sorry I mean colour overlay.
    Here's an example. If you fill a layer with the paint bucket tool using red. And then give that same layer a 'colour overlay' of blue. When you use the eye dropper tool it will  give you the red colour. I was just wondering if there's a key I can press at the same time as using the eyedropper tool that will set the foreground colour (2 squares at the bottom of the tools toolbar) to blue in this case, rather than the underlying red.
