By stretching it out I mean stretching it so that it will cover parts with silence. I’m looking for an alternative to putting a bunch of the same,small clips next to each other. Rather than dragging and places the small clips next to each other, I was wondering if I could just stretch out the one clip.

I’m looking at the volume levels in Adobe Soundbooth. It’s the long bar at the top of the interface. I simply imported the song and let it play and viewed the levels as it played. It’s possible it was closer -12 or -10. I also put something a little heavier on and it reached and went over 0.
You’ve definately given me enough info to feel alittle more confident playing with the audio. I was having a hard time figuring out what a proper db level should be. Some people were telling me 0 dbs. I appreciate you taking the time to answering and discerning some of my improper audio vernacular (I’m a newbie to this).

Thank you for the reply. I may have misspoke when I said I recorded at 30-25 dbs. The audio is playing back at that rate, but actually closer to -18dbs when someone speaks. I imported a track from a cd (Bob Dylan’s Winterlude if it matters) and that played back at -14 dbs (on average, as it fluctuates). So I think what I’m seeing is just volume level. Do you know what db level it should be at for dialogue?
Also, Adobe Soundbooth lets me save mono files as stereo files and this creates two tracks. Everything appears to be synched.

Thanks for the advice guys.
My final output will be for the web (probably vimeo) and a dvd and/or blu-ray disc.

I haven’t. I kind of new to Adobe and I just stumbled on a post that had a similar problem and someone else mention dynamic link too. I’ll try this out, should work, I was sure it was a simple solution that I just wasn’t aware of. Thank you.

Thanks Dave. I’ve learned some harsh lessons after this shoot. I didn’t even know what color bars are supposed to look like before this. I do plan on reshooting eventually, but I’m going to try to do what I can with the footage I have now to help me learn some of the programs better. I don’t even want to get into the whole 24p, 60i, pulldown, nonsense. I’ve trouble some other forums with those questions.

and it makes no difference if this is done in premiere or after affects?
-
Ahh, well a lesson learned. I didn’t go to film school so I’ll just treat this as a class. . .I can’t reshoot it any time soon, but I think I can salvage it. . .Thanks for the help

I’m starting to realize it’s the settings. But here’s the scopes and an image:
