0-ing volume of multiple clips in timeline

[Mark Spencer]

I have 300+ clips in a project. How do I set the volume to 0 or mute all clips.

I have tried:

Setting the volume to 0 before splitting up the clip, but this causes a pause before playback begins which is time consuming during editing, considering I have to stop playback at least 300 times to split up the clip, I could go through and set each clips volume to 0 faster.

Selecting multiple clips and dropping the video's audio slider all the way down but this only affects the first clip, and the regular 0-100 audio box is greyed out(does't apply to multiple clips)

Any suggestions?

I found a suggestion through search to save multiple clips to a project and then load the project as a video, but it was suggested that this may result in video quality issues.

Anyone know for sure?

Thanks and sorry for posting without seaching first

I had a similar question in this thread although I was looking to increase the volume to maximum. There was no one step answer but it may help you.

I used the suggestion that George W put forth in your thread and it worked.

Still it would be nice to be able to work with multiple clips to apply attribute changes. I don't know how many times I drug the cropping filter onto multiple clip projects before I got smart and applied the filter before I split the video

Thanks for responding

No problem. Glad I could be of some assistance.
