More than one audio track

Hi,

I've been using UVS 11 Plus(now 11.5) for a time now, but I'm required to do a project, in wich I need to overlay more than one audio track. I can use the narration zone for one, and the audio track for the other, but I need a lot more than this. How can I do it?

Regards,
Boggy

I would recommend using a special audio editor. Several of us use the freeware Audacity, or some other program for specialized audio applications.

I agree with Vidoman. Essentially, that means you use the third party program (I happen to use Nero Wave Editor instead of Audacity) to do all your audio editing. Then you blend all the various audio tracks into one, then insert that in one of the audio tracks of Video Studio...

It's a pitty that this must happen. I suggest that you should develop a patch that adds the possibility of using more audio track. I think that's not hard to do, and it will make this program, even more professional. Even the crappy AVS Video Editor(my oppinion) has this possibility.

Thanks for your answers, and please consider my oppinion.

Best regards,
Boggy

It's a pity that Corel employees or representatives do not read all these posts. Those of us that are regulars here, are just users of the various programs, like yourself.

More audio tracks has been suggested several times, and listed in the Wishlist for Future versions thread..

I reported quite some time ago that with a bit of ingenuity

Video/Studio has 9 Audio tracks!

I bet that just made a few users sit up in shock!

They are:
Video Track
Overlay Track # 1
Overlay Track # 2
Overlay Track # 3
Overlay Track # 4
Overlay Track # 5
Overlay Track # 6
Voice Track
Music track
Most users are probably aware of 3 - Video Track, Voice Track and Music Track. To use the additional 6 you have to use a bit of ingenuity because they obviously contain 'video' - you just need to hide or disguise them in some way.

The easiest way would be to resize it to 'almost nothing' and shove it into a corner. The uppermost overlay track could resemble a thin black line like the letterboxing effect of a 16.9 video on a 4.3 screen - or hidden underneath a lower third. Just use your imagination.

You can find your request in the "wish list" thread. Maybe in future versions Corel may add additional audio tracks
