  • Linkng 2 mono audio tracks

    How do you link 2 mono audio tracks? I have 2 mono audio tracks that I want to adjust the volume on simultaneously, not one track at a time. How do I link both tracks together so that when I make an adjustment on one track it adjusts on the 2nd track at the same time.

    Thanks

    A) Open the mixer. GANG the tracks you want to adjust…there is a GROUP or GANG button in there (name depends on version of MC you are using)…hover above the buttons and it’ll show you which it is. Group the tracks you want to adjust, and then move one and the other will follow.

    B) Have both tracks selected in the timeline. Have the CLIP GAIN or VOLUME audio data turned on (quick menu option for AUDIO DATA). Press the KEYFRAME button (;) to add keyframes to the tracks, and then lasso, or mark IN and OUT and drag them down. It’s really tough to explain which to do, as this behavior is different in different versions of Avid MC.

    Okay, so it’s an either or option. Looks like B) works for me.
    Thanks

    Trying to make the transition to MC and think more Avid than Apple.
