  • Very basic audio question

    Posted by Michael Allen on June 23, 2005 at 3:31 pm

    If my clip has video and audio in the bin and I want to get it in the timeline without audio, what is the best way. When I loaded it into the viewer, I did not see a way to disable the audio from being dragged into the time line. What is the answer to this basic question? Thanks in advance for any help.

    Lock the audio tracks in the Sequence and you will be fine …..

    I do not want the audio associated with the clip in the bin to be dragged into the timeline. How do I drag the video and not drag the audio at the same time?

    Look at the timeline. At the left of each track you will see buttons that disconnect or reconnect the audio (or by dragging them around you can send one channel to a different channel). You can do this with the mouse or by holding down F7 and hitting 0 in the number pad, and then F8 and hitting 0 in the number pad.

    If these buttons show the audio is disconnected then you can drag you clip and only the video will go. No audio.

    In the same place (the left of the timeline) you will see the little padlocks. if you click on this to lock the audio then when you drag your clip to the timeline or canvas you will only get video no audio.

    Shift + F5 will lock (toggle on off) all audio tracks. then when you drag down the selection it will only take video. Easiest work around I’ve found. Too bad there’s not check boxes like in Media 100.
    Need audio and not video Shift + F4.
