    What do you still need help with?
    I thought that the explanations given were self explanatory.

    Amberle,

    1. Place your video and audio clip on the timeline.
    2. Place your mouse cursor over the right end of the clip.
    3. Hold down the CTRL key and the left mouse button, and drag the end of the clip to the left, making it shorter.

    The clip will now contain all the material of the original, but will play it in a shorter time. Everything will be faster.

    However, this will NOT have changed the audio pitch. To do that,

    4. Place your mouse cursor anywhere in the audio clip.
    5. Click the right mouse button.
    6. A window will open up with a lot of command selection choices. At the bottom of the window is the word, “Properties”.
    7. Click on “Properties”. A new window will open up. This window has two tabs, “media” and “audio events”. If the “audio events” tab is not on top, click it.
    8. In the Audio Events tab, at the bottom is a setting called “Time Stretch/Pitch Shift”.
    9. In this area is a dialog box labeled “Method”. The default value in the dialog box is “None”.
    10. Click the little arrow at the right of the dialog box. Change the selection from “None” to “Classic”.
    11. At this point, additional settings will appear. Check the box labeled “Pitch Change, Lock to Stretch”.
    12. Hit “OK”.

    Print out these steps and follow them step by step.

    Regards,
    Doug Graham

    Additional Note:

    If, when you used CTRL+Drag to shorten your video clip, the audio clip did not get shorter along with the video, you will have to repeat the CTRL+Drag step on the audio portion of the clip. Make it the same length as the video clip.

    Regards,
    Doug Graham
