    Posted by Gerry Fraiberg on October 7, 2005 at 1:44 pm

    When I right click on a clip in the timeline and try to select Send To > Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project, the selection is grayed out. The only available option is Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project. But I want to be able to process individual clips, not the entire track. I’m trying to clean up audio and remove background noise as shown in the Quick Tour movie for Soundtrack Pro on the Apple web site. I’ve tried creating a separate sequence with just the clip I’m trying to clean up, but that didn’t work either. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    What I do to edit each individual clip is highlight all of my audio clips in FCP, then choose export as “XML.” Then open the XML file in Soundtrack Pro. This will reporduce your audio tracks, just as you see them in FCP. Then clean up your audio and export the mix. You will get two tracks that you can sync video in your FCP timeline.

    Thanks Joshua. I tried your solution, however, the more I learn, the less I know. I tried applying effects to individual clips, but it appears that effects are applied to the entire soundtrack. Even with your workaround of opening an exported XML file in Soundtrack.

    Try double clicking on the clip in your soundtrack timeline. This should open your clip up in a new window that will let you apply effects only to that clip and the ability to analyze the clip for imperfections(hums, pops, etc.) and fix them automatically.
