Hi

 

I have created a video using various clips of other videos. 

 

I have managed to remove visual clips of someone i do not want in the video.  However, there are a couple of key visual segments that i want to keep, but i can hear this persons voice over it! 

So, i need to remove the audio, we are talking about 3 seconds here (on a few ocassions).

 

I have been using the 'Quick' not 'Advanced' timeline; as i've found the 'Quick' meets my requirements and looks simpler!

 

Thanks

It's not quite clear what you're asking, Chris. What steps did you use to remove the audio from your clips? Are you saying this method doesn't work on some clips?

 

You also say you can "hear this person's voice over it". I'm not sure what you're saying. Are you saying that you simply want to remove this audio completely or are you trying to mix it with other audio, like a voiceover or music?

Hi @Steve Grisetti - I havent attempted to remove any audio yet...

 

I've removed a person from all the videos - so thats job done.

However, in the remaining video, you can hear his voice. 

I want to keep the video but remove all audio (of a few seconds only); as i appreciate i cant just take out HIS voice, so i want to take out all audio (Mute it).

 

Hope this is clearer.

 

Thanks

Steve often has a better way, but if it were me, I would switch to the Advanced mode for this part.   Then I would cut the clip on the timeline to isolate the 3 second section.  Then I would grab the volume line in that 3 second section and lower it as far as you need.   Depending on your needs, there may be ways were you can copy some "background noise" from another part of the clip and fill in that three second section.
