How Many Audio Tracks Can I Add To My Movie Project?

Post by Tony S »

Hi,
The members in this forum have been of great help to me. Being new to using VS I just hope I don't wear out my welcome here by asking things that may be obvious to the experienced user.
I would like to add a music file on one track, sound effects like bells, dramatic drums on another. Is this something that I can do with VSP x3? If so where can I find out how it is done? If not is there a way for me to say put special sound effects in back of the main music clip in different places in the timeline?

I would appreciate any help as to how I can do this if anyone knows. :roll:

Thank You,
Tony S.

Hi Tony

Yes there are two audio tracks, one a voice track and the other a music track, both can be used in the same way.
Make sure you are viewing the editor timeline view, this displays tracks below the preview screen.
Icons to the left indicate the track type.

Actually, with Pro X3 you have 4 audio tracks - the 2 that Trevor mentioned, plus 2 more you can open using Settings > Track Manager.

Thank you Black Lab. As I was experimenting with the audio track I did come accross the audio track tab by accident. Great feature!
