Group/lock audio clips together so they never get shifted out of place

Hi, TimurGüven,

When you add an audio clip right under the video timeline, it will attach to the video clip above it with a little handle. When you move the video clip along the time line by adding or removing other video clips, the audio clip will move with the clip to which it is attached. You can change the attachment point of the handle by holding down the Option and Command keys as you click along on the audio clip. The attachment handle will move to wherever you click. Also, if you delete the video clip that will also delete the audio clip that is attached to it. You can uncouple the audio clip by putting your cursor on it and, while pressing down, drag the audio clip downward to a lower audio well until you see the handle pull off of the video clip. Then you can delete or move the video clip independently of the audio clip.

Adding to my previous post, there is no feature in iMovie to lock audio clips together. After editing your audio clips, you can share out your project as an Audio-only file to your desktop (an option in the share-out box when you share to File), that will merge all of the audio clips. Then drag the audio file that you created into your original project as a sound track.

Another way would be to select all of the audio clips as a batch in the timeline, do an Edit/Copy and then edit paste them into a new project created for this purpose. Then share out the new project and drag it back into your original project as an audio track.
