  • Cutting out part of a video and putting in another, Sony Vegas 11

    Posted by David Mccormick on August 2, 2011 at 9:52 pm

    Hi,

    I have a video which is 3 minutes long and what I would like to do is cut out a part of it (say from 1:30 to 2:20) but keep the audio and every other part of the video intact as it was in the timeline, and inset another video in the part I cut out, and get rid of the audio in the inserted video so that only the original video audio plays.

    How would I do this? Using Sony Vegas 11

    1) Lock the audio track and cut out what you don’t want from the video event.

    2) On the second event, lock the video and delete the audio track if you don’t need it at all.

    3) Unlock events from (1) and (2) above so that you can move and combine them.

    4) Optionally, you can place the video event you want on a new higher track and just mute the audio of that event. You don’t need to do (1), (2) or (3).

    My system specs: Intel i7 970, 12GB RAM, ASUS P6T, Vegas Pro 10e (x32/x64), Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, Vegas Production Assistant 1.0, VASST Ultimate S Pro 4.1, Neat Video Pro 2.6

    You need to first ungroup the audio and video events. By default they are grouped and if you split one, you split both.

    I guess you have a Movie Studio version?
    I don’t know whether it has Trimmer, but in Pro version you can use Trimmer for this.
    Place the timeline cursor where you want to insert a new video, load your new clip in Trimmer, select the desired video region (without audio), enable Timeline overwrite and click Add from cursor. That’s it.
