Video clips audio/voice

I was wondering if there's any way I can change the volume from video clips separately. I'm trying to put a movie/slideshow together which include these videos that I took with my camera and somehow each one has different levels of volume. I've tried using the master mixer and the volume from the audio track list but when I do that it changes every single one. I'm new to this so any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Put your pointer over the audio track that you would like to adjust, right click, select "Insert/remove Envelope", select "Volume". That will put a blue line across the track. At places where you want to change the volume right click on the line, select "Add point", then left click the newly created point and slide it up or down till you get the desired volume label. Keep adding points and adjusting the all along the line.

You may also want to consider "normalizing" the volume in each clip. Right click on a clip, go to "Switches", and select "Normalize". This function will adjust the volume of the clip based on the highest peak in the visible clip. Often this is all you need to do to get various clips to have similar volume levels.
