Audio question
I have a long video that covers many cities.
I want to do some city specific audio segments.
Can I open a new project and record them to a folder somewhere and then open my movie project and bring them into that project’s media space, move them to timeline and move around at will?
When I record them in the movie project they seem to attach to adjacent video and cannot move them (audio)around or delete without affecting the video.
Or is this just a matter of ungrouping somhow? -

Start your project and then just add another audio track to the time line and start recording anywhere in the track you just added. This can be done multiple times if you want and each piece of audio can be moved anywhere on the time line. Use the volume envelopes to raise and lower the volumes of each audio track individually to get the right mix of all the audio.
Once you get more experienced, using a side chain compressor will allow you to do “ducking” (automatically lower the background sounds when speech or another audio stream is heard and it raises the volume of the background when the speech/audio stream is absent). -
Thank you Steven
I now realize that I was probably not “u” ungrouping the the sound from the video and trying to move it around.DSE’s tutorial gives a good how to on what you call “ducking”.
If I generate some narration for a piece of video how do I get it to sync in time with the video??
