Vegas MS HD ?

[hpharley90]

I'm trying to get a handle on the key framing in Vegas. I'm so used to the properties panel and ease of use in Premiere Elements for key framing.
When I video my kids outside in the back yard sometimes a jet will fly over or a loud motorcycle will drive close by and it makes for a loud noise in audio track.(track 2).
In Premiere Elements I would use key frames to lower volume in that part of clip. Then I would use another portion of the audio clip to go over the lowered volume (track 3) and you never hear the disruptive noise.

In Vegas I know how to lower audio where I need to with key frames. But as far as cutting and the copying another portion of an audio clip so that I can position on track 3 to hide disruptive noise I'm at a loss.
Can another Vegas user help me with this?

Am I making any sense?
Here is a screen shot of what I do in Premiere. This is not an actual but an example.

You might post this in the Sony VMS forum as well. http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/for ... ForumID=12

Also, once you are on the Sony site, go to Support/Training and select the "Working With Audio" tutorial. About 2/3 of the way into that tutorial, it gets into volume envelopes to reduce one sound track versus another, similar to what you are talking about.

I am a new user myself, so I am still on the lower ladders of the learning curve, but I have picked up a lot of good tips from that forum in the past week. Key Frames are next on my list to tackle.

It is really the same as Premiere Elements. Select the clip and ungroup the audio and video, in Vegas Pro I would right click on the clip and select "Group, Remove From"... this ungroups the audio and video. Then select the audio clip, move the cursor to the reguired position and hit the "S" key to split the clip. Then do your second split. Right click the audio section you want to copy and select "Copy" and then move the cursor to where you want it pasted, click on the track you want to paste it onto and right click and select "Paste".

You don't even need to cut clips. After ungrouping a clip, you can set the in/out loop region (I/O), then select the loop region (Shift+L or Shift+Q), and right-click the audio clip and copy it.

After setting the loop region, if you don't select it, you'll copy the entire audio clip.

Sorry for taking so long to get back. I'm too busy for my liking.

Thanks Paul and RJ.
I will try the I/O points first. I like that.

I have another issue that I will be posting.
