Edit wave files externally
Audio files from the arranger can be post-edited in an external wave editor program.
The selected audio file is loaded automatically and, once editing has been completed,
is used in the MAGIX Video Pro X5 instead of the original material. For this purpose,
MAGIX Video Pro X5 comes with a powerful audio editing tool: MAGIX Music Editor.
Keyboard shortcut: Alt + Z
Volume curve
The most important effect, the volume, is available here directly. The volume is also
available via the Media Pool under "Effects -> Audio effects -> General (view page
143)", where it may also be animated.
Keyboard shortcut:
Ctrl + Shift + V
Audio effects curves
This feature provides direct access to diverse object effects, and these can be
automated using a curve. All of the audio effects listed here are found in the Media
Pool under "Effects -> Audio effects -> General".
Align other audio objects with this track
Video objects grouped with audio objects may be used to synchronize recordings
from different camera perspectives.
For more information, please see the topic "Synchronize video objects using the audio
track (view page 116)".
Split stereo objects into mono objects
An audio object in stereo format can be split into two mono objects very easily using
this function. The original track will then feature the audio object with the left channel,
and an automatically added track will feature the object with the right channel.
This is useful if the channels were switched by accident during recording, i.e. due to
incorrect cabling. In this case, simply open the mixer and set the pan setting to the
correct position for each channel.
Display track curves
The most recently selected track curve is displayed on the object for editing. Use of a
curve causes the parameters set in the mixer to be disregarded.
Note: The track curves of audio objects can be animated in the same way as video
effects. Read more about this in the chapter "Animating objects (view page 147)".
