 Hello, everyone. Welcome back to the Premiere Pro tutorial. This is a quick one. I'm going to show you how to audio duck, or in layman's terms, which make a little more sense, how to reduce the volume of background music or music of any sort when somebody's speaking. So if I'm talking right now and add music behind me, I would want the music low. But when I stop speaking, I want the music to go back up. And I don't want to have to go in there and fiddle with it every time. So we're going to do that. I'm going to show you an example here. In fact, you can look real. I'll just try and make this a little bigger here. If you look really closely here, you'll see here that there's these two keyframes here. And what it is is I've just basically got the music on regular. And then when I start talking right here, you'll see it fades in and then it drops. So let's listen to it and then I'll show you how to do it. Hello, everyone. Welcome back another Dolly 3 video. So did you hear how that when I started talking right here, the audio or the music background sort of faded out and then watch this? Here's another example. I'm going to stop talking right here. And you can see it in the waveform. There's this gap here. And when I'm not talking, the audio ramps up. And again, this is done automatically. So let's just listen one more time. All right. And then I started talking again. So let's just go through this step by step. I'm going to show you every step of the way. It shouldn't take too long. Here we go. Alrighty, here we go. So the first step here is I've got two videos here. I've actually got one video and one background audio track. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to take the original video here, which is this one here, drag and drop it into the timeline and presto. If we zoom in here, I'm going to go ahead and just hold the, hold the mouse over this little line here. And I'm going to increase the size of track a one. So you see it a little better and maybe I'll move this up a little bit. Nope, hang on. I'm going to move this up a little bit as well because it is a little bit. We're not going to be using a lot of the video. So here we go. There we go. So the audio track one and there we go. Now I'm going to put the background music or the music onto audio track two. So I'm just going to go ahead and drag and drop that and presto right onto a two or audio track two. Let's go ahead and increase the size of audio track two as well. So I'm going to make it nice and big so you can see it. Maybe I should maybe even bring this up a little more. I don't know what you think. Yeah, let's just go ahead and come on Curtis. You got this. Okay, so there we go. So now let's zoom in a little bit here right at the start. And when you look here, you'll see here that the music track starts right here and the audio track, which is me talking starts right here. So what I'm going to do now is I'm going to go up to window. I'm going to go from workspace instead of the default editing. I'm going to switch it over to the audio workspace and when you do that, you're going to get the essential sound panel. Now this is an important part this audio track one as you heard earlier. Let's listen again. Okay, the audio track one is dialogue. So this I need to label. So I'm going to click on a one here. In fact, you'll see here that I clicked on it now under edit browse edit. You can see here that I can select a dialogue. You can auto tag it, but sometimes it gets it wrong. So I'm just going to click it and you'll see here that it's now selected as dialogue. If you get it wrong, just click on clear audio type. Now I'm going to go to audio track to this one here. This one is music. So I'm going to go ahead and click on music and then you'll see here that it is automatically selected as music. Now I'm going to go ahead and hover over this white line here if I zoom in a little closer and I'm going to pull that down a little bit because it's too loud and I don't want to make it annoying for you. So I'm just going to drop that, but that is not a required step. Just wanted to show you that this is what we got. So if we listen to it now, nothing here. This is all silent. The music starts and then the audio or the voice starts after that. So in my voice starts, I want the music to slow down a little and go down and not be quite as loud. So let's go ahead and do that. So what I'm going to do now is I'm going to click on the music track or audio track to you'll see it selected music and then I'm going to click this box here called ducking. Yes, it's called ducking. It's awesome. Now under ducking, you've got a few options. You'll see this one here. It says duck against dialogue clips. This is why we went and created the tagging on the first and the second clip here. So it knows that these audio track one is a dialogue clip. So I'm going to go ahead and increase the sensitivity a little bit and then watch this. I'm just going to leave it as is, but do note. You can adjust the amount you duck it. You can adjust the fade and all these other things. But the main point is is I'm just going to click on generate keyframes and now watch this. It's automatically done and if we zoom all the way in real tight here, you'll see the music is set at the regular interval and that one right when the dialogue starts right here. It goes down. Let's listen. Hello, everyone. Welcome back to hear that that was all there is to it. So literally go ahead and try that out adjust these sensitivities and these dials as needed. That's how you duck audio and Premiere Pro like a boss. Thanks for watching.
