Muting/deleting original noise/audio from video

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and new to Macs in general. I would like to know the following:
I have a video of a road-trip in which the noise of the car features
heavily. I've added a track to go over it but no matter what I try
the noise from the car is still there. Is there a way of tuning this out and only having music playing? Same would go with people's voices...is there a way of muting that? I know you can do a voice over, but will that dim the voices?
Thanks in advance,
P.S. I have iMovie 09

i am having an issue and a question. i want to mute all the audio from all clips. the only audio that should be playing is the music that i insert. i know this is a basic process. i click on the clip and select mute under edit or under the audio section move the volume bar all the way to 0.
for some reason, this most recent time i opened up imovie to resume more editing, the audio of the clips were on again. when i click the clip to mute it, it says that it is already muted and the volume bar is set at 0. what the heck is going on?
please help.

  • How to delete background noise on home video

    How do I delete background noise on home video? Am transferring old Sony Camcorder tapes to DVD, using Adobe Premier Elements 11, Windows 7

    Grandmaomi
    Do you want to delete the whole audio from your home video and replace it with something else or do you want to do as you describe "delete background noise on home video"?
    If the latter, a lot will be dependent on the nature of the background noise? Have you worked with any of the audio effects under fxEffects Tab/audio effects.

    Please see the description of the audio effects described under "audio effects" in the above Adobe document on Effects Reference.
    If one of these noise removal audio effects does not work for you, you might explore Noise Reduction in the free audio editor Audacity.

  • Ipad background audio from video when multitasking

    Hello.
    This is a request if people can either feedback On their present experience or try this out themselves first and feedback.
    I have an ipad 1. When ever i try to get background audio to play from video when multitasking in another app, eg safari, from any video app including plex, airvideo, vlc,  and the original apple video app. All that occurs is that the icon changes to the ipod and a random song is played from my music library instead of the audio from the video i was watching. This does not matter if the video file is streamed or stored on the ipad itself.
    There is one slight and occasional proviso to this, as at times if the video file is tagged in itunes as 'music' rather than 'movie' or 'tv show' etc then it does on occasions work, and on occasions youtube videos will play in the background. But most of the time these aspects also dont function int he background with the ipod icon instantly replacing which ever video app icon i tried to use in the background.
    Now my sons iphone 4 manages to function correctly and always plays video in the background when multitasking.
    I have asked this question before on this forum, with no response, so booked a visit to my local genius bar. Where they checked my ipad and agreed it wasnt working as ios should, then interestingly they attempted to do the same on an ipad 2 and it failed to work in exactly the same way.  Their response was that this was obviously a fault of the ipad ios, possibly due to the ipad having a separate video app where as the iphone has video within its generic ipod app.
    I did the usual by informing apple via of this bug through the feedback system, and requested that the genius bar do the same. But having thought about this, and failed to see any other users on this forum who are also puzzled at this lack of what i think is an important function, i wonder if this means that i am the only one who likes to listen to video when im browsing, so dont need it, or wether everyone elses ipads function as ios should do, and for some reason both my ipad, and the ipad 2 tested in the shop are at fault.
    So can i request if others reading this can have a go to see if their ipad will play background audio from video when multitasking, or if the same problem occurs.
    Thanks very much this is really appreciated.

    Oops clicked the wrong button, I meant to click a 'helpful answer' as it  hard to have a correct answer to such a question.
    But thanks for the replies.
    It looks like this is a bug in ios solely for the ipad, as it does work fine on the iphone  although wonder which way the ipod touch will perform. interestingly it looks like i may also be in the minority of wishing to listen to video files as I browse:)
    Which probably means apple may never get around to sorting it, as no one else uses the function.
    Anyway thanks for the replies, if any one else wants to see the bug have a go and comment, i find it funny how I seem to be the only one to have found it to date.

  • Split audio from video doesn't split video at the same point ?

    When I split the audio from a video in GarageBand I would like the video to be split at the same point (so that I can insert audio in between without everything getting out of sync).
    Is this possible?
    (I don't want to use iMovie since that turns my 150 MB mov file into a 8 GB file..take ages to import)
    The reason I want to insert audio in between video fragments is that I am creating an audio description of a tv series for a blind friend. I watch the video, pause that, and describe. Then continue.
    If I can split both the video and "audio from video" at the same point and drag those to the right, so there's room to record something in between (then in the end I'll just drag it all so that the parts join up, delete the video and merge the audio. I hope.)
    Thanks in advance!!

    I figured out how to reset the Youtube video upon hiding thanks to Heathrowe's answer and FigFrance's contribution to the thread found here:
    https://forums.adobe.com/message/4979969#4979969
    The secret was adding .empty() to my video container.  Here is my functioning button code:
    Show Video:
    //code to embed youtube into symbol
    var youtube = $("<iframe/>");
    sym.$("video").empty().append(youtube);
    youtube.attr('type', 'text/html');
    youtube.attr('width', '640');
    youtube.attr('height', '360');
    youtube.attr('src', 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/MyFv6UKsW70?rel=0');
    youtube.attr('frameborder', '1');
    youtube.attr('allowfullscreen', '0');
    // Show an element
    sym.$("video").show();
    Hide Video:
    sym.$("video").empty();
    // Hide an element

  • Extracting audio from video clip to use as narration?

    Hi there,
    I have a video clip in which I want to take the audio of actor speaking and put it onto another video.
    I.e. he is speaking about walking in the park. I want to take him speaking about walking in the park and put it onto the clip where he is actually walking in the park.
    How do I do this in premiere elements 10?

    Hi Bill,
    Thanks for the quick response. I guess my question now is how would I do those two things?
    In terms of exporting the audio, where can I find that option when I'm on timeline?
    What do you mean by "Alt-click" and what is a "muxed file"?
    Thanks again,
    Mallory

    Welcome to the forum. There are several ways to accomplish this, and your choice might well rest on how you like to work, and what you are doing, such as Deleteing Video. First, you could Export/Share just the Audio as a PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, from your Timeline, and Import that into a New Project, where the Audio WAV file would be used. OTOH, you could Atl-click on the Video portion of the muxed file, and Delete the Video, leaving only the Audio portion. Good luck, Hunt

  • Removing Audio From Video (Problem 2) !!!HELP!!!

    I have succesfully managed to remove audio and add new audio to an (avi) video. However, when I tried to do the same thing with an new (mpeg) video/ soundtrack. Logic did not allow me to extract audio from video or give me the option to de-select audio tracks when bouncing. So when I extract video with audio I get the old audio track plus the new audio combined. Is it do with the video format? can I convert video formats in logic? many thanks, Ben.

    open in quicktime, then click save as and save as a .mov file. This should work. Not sure why this is happening though. Let me know if this works...
    Please remember the helpful and solved problem....

  • Separate audio from video - I want BOTH an audio and video file

    Hi,
    I would like to separate audio from video - I want BOTH an audio and video file.
    I don't think this can be done without additional software, but if it can, pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Brandon

    You need Quicktime 7.6 Pro. Control+J to bring up the property window. In the property window is an extract button. Click on either the video or audio and click to the extract button.
    You'll find Quicktime 7 in your Utilities folder. If Quicktime 7 isn't install in the Utilities folder you need to install it from you OS installation disk, in the optional installations folder.
    If you don't have Quicktime Pro you need to buy it from the Apple store.

  • Splitting Audio From Video

    Hello
    I'm having trouble splitting audio from video. I currently have Final Cut Pro 6 from the final cut studio package, and my issue is that my audio is not synchronized with my video. The audio is coming in too early for the video and the voices of the people in the video do not match up. How can I fix this problem? How can I move the audio without moving the video as well?

    Select the clip and hit command L to separate the tracks.
    The real issue is why the footage is out of sync.

  • Audio from video to CD using chapter markers for song separation

    Dear All,
    I have a client who wants audio only exported from a 2 hour plus original musical video performance and put on CD. I would like to separate the songs on the audio clip so that they can be individually searched by the CD remote rather than just having one long 2 hour plus soundtrack...a lot of work, believe me due to the number of songs involved!
    Is there an easy way to do this other than by exporting each song as a separate audio clip? If I create chapter markers and then delete the video track, will the chapter markers remain embedded in the audio portion during the export? I am working with Final Cut Studio 2 which includes DVD Studio Pro and Soundtrack Pro. I also have Toast Titanium 8.
    Thanks for your help.
    Barb

    When I need to do this, I export the audio from the QuickTime file into an AIFF file which I then open in a Soundtrack Pro multi-track project, use the razor blade tool to mark the tracks/chapters, then move them into a separate track in the multi-track project (all starting at the very start of the timeline), making as many new tracks as needed.
    Then, you need to export one track at a time: mark an in point at the beginning of the project then an out point at the end of the piece of audio in that particular track, solo the track and export mix, giving the tracks numbers as you go - as it's only one track, your mix wil be one track of audio. Continue this through all the tracks, which you can then import into iTunes and, as they're numbered, you'll know which order to put them in on the CD.
    I know it sounds long-winded but it's easier than it sounds! Hope it helps,
    Chris

  • Audio from video clip and layering

    ok, I need help! I finally figured out how to take audio from a video clip and place it over pictures or layer it over other audio. Now, I want to start with a video clip, it happens to be an interview, cut away to some pictures or other muted video, and come back to the interview, all with the audio playing the whole time and lined up correctly....how do i do this? THANKS!!

    Thanks David
    I found this here http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/#tutorial=extendaudio
    To extend audio across multiple clips:
    1. In the Project area, select the clip that contains the audio you’d like to extend into a second clip. Select the last few seconds of the first clip that contain the audio you want.
    2. To split the first clip, choose Edit > Split Clip.
    3. Control-click the selected clip and choose “Reveal in Event Browser.”
    4. In the Event browser, Command-Shift-drag the clip to extract the audio and place it at the start of the next clip.
    5. Delete the video portion of the clip you split in step 2.
    Because you’ve extracted the audio from exactly the part of the clip you split, the audio seamlessly plays across the next shot
    I am going to try this tonight and see how easy it is
