as per my title i cannot figure out how to have a certain section of video have a 2 sec. piece of audio from clip come over the music also. so as an example i have a 1 min video with music but in section of 15sec to 17sec of the 1 min i want also have the clip audio to also be heard. however the clip itself is about 15 seconds(i only want specific portion of the clip to be heard with music while the rest is still muted). i hope that makes sense. i have used also the soundforge audio to get the audio exact but cannot get it to my timeline. i have only used this product very lightly and appreciate all the assistance i can get from someone. thanks

This is really easy to do right in Vegas. Select the audio track on the timeline and press V to insert a blue volume control line through the track. Double-click on this line to add nodes wherever you want the volume to change. In your case you'll probably need 8 of them: 1 where you want the volume to go silent, a second one right after that, 1 where you want the volume to come back up for those 2 seconds, a second one right before that, and another set of 4 after the 2 seconds you want to keep. It takes 2 nodes for each volume change. You can now drag nodes or the lines between the nodes up or down to change the volume. Drag them all the way to the bottom of the track to mute.

Drag the nodes sideways to adjust the timing. If you move two adjacent nodes directly aligned with each other at the same time, the volume change will be instant. Nodes farther apart will have longer fades between them.

dustin,
I may have misunderstood, but do you mean something like this?
