Vegas movie studio HD audio question

[hpharley90]

I need to lower the volume in a short portion of a clip.
With Premiere Elements I would use 4 key frames and done.
How can I do that in Vegas? I just see fade in fade out.

In Premiere Elements it is even easier than 4 keyframes;
Right click on audio clip on timeline, Select FADE, OUT AUDIO, or FADE, IN AUDIO

Sorry, I don't know the way to do that in Vegas

I need to lower the volume in a short portion of a clip.

Not the beginning of clip or end of clip. I need to lower in the middle of clip.


Thanks Chuck.

Ahhhh, then you can split the clip at the point you want to lower and use the fade out and in

Of course that depends on how long you want to lower the volume for, but splitting the clip is still the fastest way.
Split the clip for the length you want to change the volume, then add a audio transition at the beginning and end, no keyframes required

Thought of that. Thought there might be another way. I will go that route.
Thanks

There may be an easier way in Vegas Richard, but splitting the clip at the beginning and end points that you want the volume change and adding the audio transitions to both ends is the easiest way in Premiere Elements, and Pro.

First select the Envelope Edit Tool, on the toolbar below the menus.

Right-click on the audio clip, and select "Insert/Remove Envelope > Volume."

A blue line, which will run through the clips, can be keyframmed.

You can also lock and unlock envelopes to clips (events). There's a tool icon for that on the toolbar, and it's turned on by default.

That's what I was looking for Robert. I'm going through the learning curve. I started working on my first project in Vegas.
