Mixing audio
Last updated 10/4/2016
To mute a track while mixing, click Mute. This option does not mute the track permanently—only while mixing.
SmartMix
Sometimes the background music is loud and the dialogs in a clip are not audible. To ensure that the dialogs are easily
heard, the volume of the background music must be lowered. SmartMix enables automatic adjustment of the volume
of the background music. For best results, place dialog clips on the Audio 1 track or the Narration track (Foreground
tracks) and music on the Soundtrack track (Background tracks). Premiere Elements analyzes clips on all Foreground
tracks for dialogs. Keyframes are then smartly/automatically created to lower the volume level to ensure that the dialog
in the Foreground track is audible. SmartMix adjustments apply to all audio clips on the Expert view timeline, not just
on the selected clip. When you use SmartMix on an audio track, keyframes you applied previously on the Soundtrack
are deleted.
Change foreground and background tracks
By default, when you create a track, it is a Foreground track. You can change the track type per your requirement. You
can also disable a track to ensure that the track is ignored when you perform a SmartMix.
1 Select Tools > Smart Mix.
2 In the Smart Mixer panel, and select one of the following options from the menu below the track name.
• Foreground
• Background
• Disabled
note: Select the option Disabled to ignore the track when you perform Smart Mix.
Change Smart Mix preferences
To change SmartMix options, select Edit > Preferences > Audio / Adobe Premiere Elements 13 > Preferences > Audio.
You can change the following options:
Track Default Criteria Specify the type of track. The available options are: Foreground, Background, and Disable. When
you create a track, by default, it is a Background track.
Merge Pause Of Specify the threshold, in seconds.
Lower Background Specify the percentage by which you want the volume to drop.
Normalize Dialog Normalize the dialogs to ensure that the volume remains constant throughout the duration of the
clip.
Adjust volume in the Expert view timeline
You can adjust clip volume directly on an audio track in the Expert view timeline. By dragging the Volume graph up or
down, you can, for example, make the volume of a clip match that of its neighbors, or mute it entirely.
Note: You can also raise and lower volume with keyframes.
1 To resize an audio track for better visibility, position the pointer between two tracks in the track header area so that
the Height Adjustment icon appears, and then drag up or down.
2 Select Volume in the upper left corner of the clip. Then, select Volume > Clip Volume.
3 Position the pointer over the Volume graph: the yellow line running horizontally across the audio track of the clip.
The pointer changes to the white double-arrow icon.
