on iMovie how can you mute a section of the sound track so you can hear the audio from the video clip?

Hey,

If you double-click on the soundtrack you can open it up in the inspector tab and lower the soundtrack so that you can hear the audio from the video clip.

A great resource for finding answers to questions like this is http://www.imovietutorialhelp.com

You can ask questions just like these and they will be answered for you. If you need a tutorial video made or anything like that, you can go there as well and ask for a video to made as well. Check it out.

If you still have questions on how to do this, they can help you for sure.

There are other useful sourcs of information on using iMovie other than the one theimovieguy links to everywhere because he owns it:

What you can do is click on that soundtrack and go up to CLIP- SPLIT CLIP. What that will do is split your soundtrack clip so that you then can just mute that one part of the clip and it won't effect the rest of the clip. Does that make sense? You will even see the soundtrack split in the project timeline. Let me know if that helps!

And yes, you can go to a lot of other sites for tutorials and information regarding iMovie.

I can definitely do that!! I can have it up tonight. I hope that works for you. Please ask if you ever have any questions.

That's great. I'm glad that the "ducking" worked for you. I definitely will still make the video. Like you said, it for sure will help others.
