All language subtitles for 13. Editing music and sound tracks Part 1

We're going to move on to something that is really important is sound within your video editing now

within for Maura, there's actually three different areas to deal with sound.

And each of them have their own purpose.

Now, first of foremost, I have this clip that is in the project files, and I'd like you to put it

in the project panel.

So come to import, come to import media folder, navigate to the Fillmore project and the file you

want is this one here clip with music and then click OK, and you should end up with this video here.

Now, if you are uploading this for the first time, you may have to give it a minute or so for it,

for the clip to be optimized or to load fully.

And you should see this little wheel in the bottom left hand side of the corner just giving you an idea

of the progress with regard to that.

But once the clip has fully loaded, you can just click and drag and pull it into the timeline.

OK, so this is the first clip where we are dealing with that has sound attached to it.

Before we were just dealing with clips that was silent, but now like I said, we have sound attached

to the clip.

So first of foremost, what I'm going to do just to see things a little bit more clearly, I'm going

to come to the just the top of the video track here and click hold and drag and pull up and expose more

of the video track.

Now, obviously, you can just come to the track manager and click on Adjust Track Height and then click

on Big.

You can do it that way, or you can do it manually just by click holding and dragging and pulling upwards.

OK, so like I said, there's three different areas that deal with sound within Fillmore.

The first area is the Sierra here, and you can do three things in this area.

You can adjust the volume, you can fade in and you can fade out.

So first and foremost, and I'm not sure how this is going to sound when you listen to this tutorial,

but basically, I'm going to press play for this clip and when I raise this bar, so I'll just press

play by pressing the spacebar.

Or I'll just click there.

I'm pretty sure you can hear it, but I'm not like I said, I'm not sure how this is going to sound

when I actually come to edit this, but basically.

I can raise the volume like that's not Phil, it does take a second for it to catch up.

But basically, you can just adjust the volume here like this.

And I would say is the most basic tool that you have when it comes to sound editing within four more

at.

OK, so I'm just gonna leave the sound is there now in terms of fading in and fading out.

What I'll do is I'll just move this clip over to the right so you can see the fade in little tap.

Hear more clearly.

We have this little tab and all I have to do is just click and drag like this.

So let's just bring it to around here.

I don't want to go too far.

And now if I press play.

The sound starts to fade in.

And so simple as that.

So now what I'll do is I'll just drag the clip over to the left, and as you can see, we have fade

out as well.

So here's the marker I can just have a fade out here.

And of course, the clip will fade out.

And you can hear it starting to fade out.

OK, so we're going to go take a look at the second area now, which is the audio mixer now with the

video clip selected, just come to the second here.

And you'll be presented with this window.

Now what I can do is I can just press play on the clip.

So on the clip itself, we have the volume adjust here, we can adjust the decibel level, but we also

have the master here.

And believe it or not, these are actually disconnected from each other.

So just because you put this up here in the master, it doesn't mean it goes up here in this area here.

So just so you're aware of that.

Now we have stereo, which is basically having the sound in the center, which basically means the sound

is going to come out of both sides.

So for instance, on my TV, I've got two speakers as far as I know on the back and I'm actually working

on my TV.

So with this in the center.

And this is actually made up of two things, which is video one, an audio one.

But there are two of the same thing because they are connected together with stereo and with a stereo

setting set to stereo.

And with these in the middle, it basically means that the sound is going to come out of both speakers.

But if I do this, I pull video one to the right and I can pull audio one to the right if I want.

But in this particular instance, it's only the video that makes a difference if I pull it to the right

and click, OK, and you mean so I don't need to click OK.

You may not hear this because again, of the because of the way the video will be edited, but if I

press play.

I can hear the sound is now coming out of the right hand speaker.

And of course, by bullet to the left, the sound will come out of the left hand speaker and you've

got another way of doing this with this thing.

Yes, there's more than one way of doing it, but I find this.

This is just much easier now we have surround, which basically.

And to be honest with you, I'm not sure how this works exactly, but there's obviously some type of

sound engineering behind this principle.

I can take video one and don't forget.

It doesn't matter what what I do with audio one.

In this particular instance, because the video and sound are joined together, it's video one that

counts.

This is this is the one that really makes a difference.

Or, I should really say, completely makes a difference.

So if I put this here video one at the back and press play, and again, you may not hear this.

Funnily enough, it sounds like the sound is behind me, even though I don't actually have any speakers

behind me.

Well, maybe it's just a placebo effect, but if I had a surround sound system, the sound would be

behind me.

So I think that generally speaking, when it comes to video editing and the camera, most of the time

you'll probably use stereo.

I just have the sound in the middle.

Now just make a mental note of when I press play.

You see, we have these sound levels on the left.

And of course, on the right.

And like I said a moment ago, it's in this case, it's the video that makes a difference.

So that's why you have sound levels here and not in audio.

But what if I do this, if I just click OK and I right click on my clip and I come to audio and I detached

the audio?

So now they're detached to what I'll do is I'll just click on this here to see the whole timeline,

and I'm going to make my.

Height adjustment, small.

Now I can take my audio and I can actually move it separately and I can do whatever I want with it,

but I'm going to hold down control in air and put it back to the way it was.

But with it like this, now I select the soundtrack and I come back to the audio mixer.

And now when I press play.

You see, it's actually audio, one that counts now, because that's where the music gets.

Whereas before it was VIDEO But now the video has no music, so the audio makes it doesn't recognize

it as something that has sound.

Now, one thing to be aware of when dealing with sound are what are called the levels.

If you press play and you find that things are in the red here and the audio mixes if I press play.

You can see it starting to turn red there, and that's something to be aware of because you can, I

suppose, cause damage to to someone's speakers, and the sound quality starts to become quite distorted

because it's just too high.

So that's one thing you want to be aware of.

You don't want to have any red showing, to be honest with you, and you just won't have it just below

so that the Clippers loud enough or the video is just loud enough, but it's not hitting those levels.

So that's the audio mix, and I think it's pretty straightforward how to use this.

It's mostly orientated around, I'd say, the master and choosing stereo or surround.
