Question

Editing out an audio waveform

I have two people speaking in one audio track of a video.  One is asking interview questions, the other answering.  I want to completely eliminate the interviewer asking questions -their waveform and just leave the person's voice answering the questions.  Is this possible? How?  I'm going nuts.

Keyframe the audio volume or just cut the audio out of the track and add a piece of the "silence" in the rest of the track to make the background noise sound natural.

This will only work, of course, if they are not speaking at the same time.

HI Peru Bob,

Thanks for taking the time to answer. Still not sure I explained it proper or, I don’t understand your suggestion.

I’ll use the below image as an example. I have two people speaking in audio 1 and the top wave is the one I want to keep. That person is explaining how to do something. The bottom are just questions and responses. Is it possible to easily cut out the bottom wave? I don’t want to cut out the entire track. I have reduced the audio middle line and they did not help. I don’t know if I can mix out the bottom wave either.

Suggestions?

This is just an example of audio 1 where there are two tracks.

I still don't see an image.

Is your audio of each person on its own track?

Please post a screen shot of your timeline in Expert Mode.


No, the audio of both are on the same track and they are at times both speaking together.
