iMovie '09 Music and Sound Effects

[ACR3velations]

I just used iMovie HD instead because you had more options what you wanted to do with the music.

[kingmaulr]

can u add songs from youtube into your imovie?

[R0CKETOR]

Thank you. Now I can make a screamer!

[billhamlin08]

If you drop your music track on your video track, it will put your music underneath as a green bar. Click the green bar so it is highlighted, then right click where you want it to stop. Click "split clip." It will split the music track so you can drag the second half to where you want it to start again.

@billhamlin08 Sorry to bother you a few years later... How do you overlap a sound fx and a song? I'm trying to fade out a sound affect over a song... If that makes sense. One green underlying bar isn't green.... it's purple

[purplequeerturtles]

i want to start music and then stop it in between and then continue the music later on from the same point... how do i do that?

[SuperBob776]

thanx tis actually helps

[EmmaBrownful]

hey can you tell me how this happened: I wanna download a song from itunes into the video but it keeps saying this: "Sound Files cannot be imported rom the event Library"

How do I make this go away so I can put music into it!??

[Jetsrule192]

When i try to drag the music, it rejects it, it doesn't drop into the clip. PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!

[XtRedChaos]

I hate macs with... with a fucking passion.

[choppa100]

[AllThatJas17]

[lucasglubin]

I added a song to my video and when I "Export with Quicktime", and when the rendering is all down, the video file, a .mp4 file, shows up on my desktop. When I play the video, the song doesn't play, just the videos sound. I'm using iMovie '09.

[cts1233]

Is iMovie '09 a software you buy?

[ThreeCatsScratching]

@cts1233 yes

[superkm101]

@cts1233 it comes with mac

[Kproductionzx]

[R0CKETOR]

[speedy94519]

Does anybody how to to add reverb to a video recordiing on Imovie??

[lucasglubin]

Fuck iMovie! :( I want to start right now. I want the song to start part way through, and I want to be able to change audio. And fuck Final Cut, too, because I can't record straight to it from my iCam. iFuck everything! :(

[Manny17Man]

[lucasglubin]

@Manny17Man I actually didn't. I got a fully-loaded MacBook Pro with my program in college. So it's part of the suite. But, thanks for the comment.

[Manny17Man]

[ZackHourihane]

[paulallen34]

i was wondering is it possible to buy extra sound effects and transitions for imovie 09

[doodoo1010]

is there some way i can get the loop "Three Pointer" as an MP3? Becasue I dont have a mac but LOVE that theme. Can anyone help me?

[phatkix]

@doodoo1010 You ever figure out how to get that looped?

[pabeen]

When i click on the Music Note Button, I dont see anything. No sound effects, no folders and no itunes. what should i do!??!

[squashdudes]

god, i still cant get it to work. so ANNOYING

[tatsuginz]

is there a way to add sound effects to the movies u make with imovie?

[FishFingerboardsCo]

i still cant get itunes to work on imovie (im squashdudes btw). i got it to let me put my garageband music on but not itunes. its soooooooo annoying

[leatherfaceboy]

are there good audio effects for horror movies

[squashdudes]

when i click on the music note there is nothing that says itunes. i really wanna put music from itunes on but i cant figure out how

[billhamlin08]

I just checked on my computer and iTunes is an option right under the two folders of iMovie and iLife sound effects and jingles. I'm not exactly sure why yours wouldn't have your iTunes library available, I'll try to look into it more.

[squashdudes]

ok thanks, dude. but i think its cuz i hadnt uploaded stuff cuz we just got our computer yesterday. thanks tho ill try that

[billhamlin08]

Have you tried adjusting the audio settings for the music track, increasing the play time? Sometimes it automatically fits it to the video (or title) track. Also, try dropping the music track in so it fills behind the video and title tracks. If you do it this way, the music will play continuously through titles, transitions, etc. Let me know if that helps.

[MrNatm]

@billhamlin08 How do you get the like the "ding ding ding" sound like on a game show?

[Moviejack360]

how do you keep the music selected continuing without the titles?

[jimmycarter123456789]

How do you cut audio? I just can't seem to figure it out. It looks like cut the sound effect at 1:24 but I don't know how

[MrFlypy]

thats my same problem, i have a song and want to cut it in a certain part, i just cant figure out how...

[jimmycarter123456789]

haha thank God I thought I was the only one stupid enough not to see how, but yeah I still have no idea how and can't go on with this movie I'm making until I figure this out. It also doesn't help that there's no directions on how to cut audio in the Help Menu or the whole internet for that matter. Tell me how if you ever figure out!

[MrFlypy]

sure man, also if u figure out tell me haha...

[jimmycarter123456789]

haha k

[D2Cfilms]

arent the sound effects from imovie 09 the same from imovie 08?
