Master Volume Output Fader Question

Jasonh wrote on 11/30/2006, 3:12 PM

I recorded an interview on two separate mics. One for the interviewer, and one for the interviewee. I put one mic on Input 1, and the second mic on input2. I am now editing the footage, and I want to adjust the volume on each input separately without it affecting the entire Vegas project. I cannot do this using the Master Volume Output Fader, as it applies the settings to the whole project. Is there are a way i can adjust the volume for each input that I recorded without it being applied to the whole project? The reason being I have a bunch of other segments for other parts of the project that I don't want affected.

Copy the audio track with the two inputs; right click on one the track, select "Channel" (I think it's called -- it probably the next to last choice on the drop down menu) and choose to make one track the #1 channel, the other track the #2. Add a volume envelope to each track and adjust away.

I'm not at my editing computer, but I think I'm pretty close with these instructions.

After copy, paste of audio tracks and assigning as left and right, you can also use Splits on each side of areas that need adjusting. Break the long track event into smaller events instead of using long audio envelopes on the whole track. Isolate the audio areas that need adjusting this way. Then drag the blue volume line down on each audio event as needed. Your new level settings will follow the new events if you move them around or delete some of them.
