Adding additional audio tracks in VS 10

[VinnyC]

Hi. Is there a way to add an additional audio track to either the music track or voice tracks? In other words, instead of one voice track and one music track is there a way to add a third track? I have many sound effects and music and there are parts of my project that need more than two audio tracks.

Thanks!

No you're limited to the 2 audio. However there is a work-around.. In a new project add your audio tracks, probably the background music, then save the project. Open the project you're working on, then insert the project file with just the audio tracks into an empty video track.

Thanks! I thought there was only one video track per project? Are there more than one?

What version of VS 10 do you have? If I recall there were a total of 2 originally released, VS 10 what we called the vanilla version, and VS 10 Plus. VS 10+ has the additional overlay tracks, where VS10 only has the one overlay track.
