  • syncing up audio layers

    I’m in a situation where I have pairs of stereo audio layers in a timeline that will need a lot of fade in/outs and it would be efficient if i could link them so as not to have to add all the key frames to both L & R audio pairs (i.e. doing everything twice).
    Is this possible-to link audio tracks so that you only have to add/subtract key frames to them as one layer instead of doing it to both layers. Like linking or syncing them together. It seems like a logical and practical way to do things.

    You can link tracks using Cmd L. Highlight all the tracks and Cmd L should link them together. You can’t do this when more than one audio track has a video track. Another approach would be to nest the synced tracks. Then by adjusting the nested audio track you would affect all the synced tracks like a master fader.
