Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro precision dragging of audio clip’s keyframe

  • precision dragging of audio clip’s keyframe

    Posted by Peter Malof on July 25, 2006 at 1:50 am

    After reading all the messages about the drawbacks of automating a track’s audio I think I’ll just set my levels the way I’m used to: dragging each clip’s keyframes. In an older version of Premiere I remember I could hold shift or alt (or something) while dragging to get very precise control of my keyframe levels, but this does not seem to work with Premiere Pro (either using the selector or the pen). So my level tweaking options are very crude unless I open up the levels panel (by right clicking). Is there no way to more precisely drag the keyframes?

    Draging keframes up and down?
    Expand the height of the audio track when doing this. This gives more precise control of the Db levels.

    Thanks, I’ll try this. I guess Adobe got rid of their modifier key for dragging levels (I don’t remember if it was in 6.0 or Elements), as I looked through all the available shortcuts (but I found some other good ones I’ll have to start using!).

    The other thing you can do is use the Effects Control Window. Keyframes show up there same as for video effects. Not as fast as working directly in the timeline but you can enter exact values or use the slider controls for quick adjustments.
