Post 12 - Adobe Audit and Audacity

I have used Adobe audition to adjust the volume levels of audio clips. The software was used to trim and extend the various clips, the selected clips tool was used to remove parts of the audio not required. Similar to Adobe Premiere there is a razor tool , i used this to split the audio clips removing any sound effects and parts of music from the soundtrack that were not required. The final aspect of the editing within Adobe Audition was toning town the gain and db levels. I toned the volume down because the corresponding audio on the timeline could then be heard simultaneously without one over the other. Also the volume could be toned down to a suitable sound level for the audience.

A vital tool used in Audacity was the Time Shift Tool. This allowed me to change the position of the tracks on the timeline. It is a very simple tool which allowed me to drag clips into different positions on the audio clip timeline. It also allowed me to allow two of the tracks together. The final tool i used was the drawing tool which was highly important. This allowed me to draw the waveforms onto the audio clip which gave me full control over the gain levels of the audio.
