Adding an audio clip
To add an audio clip to the StoryBoard, drag and drop the clip from the Clips
bin onto either of the two audio Clips tracks, in the position that you wish.
Aligning an audio clip
To make an audio clip start at the beginning of a particular video clip and
continue for the duration of that video clip, drop the audio clip on top of the
video clip in the video Clips track. The label for that audio clip will appear in
the first free audio clip track directly under that video clip, and it will have
the same start and stop time as the video clip.
Once you place an audio clip in the track, you can move it by dragging it to a
new location in the track.
You can also drag the beginning or end of the track to extend the length of
time it will play (up to the maximum length of the audio clip).
If you want an audio clip to begin at a particular point within your video,
move your cursor bar to the appropriate location, then highlight the audio
clip and press the Tab key. Notice that the audio clip “snaps” into position.
If you want an audio clip to end at a particular point within your video, move
your cursor bar to the appropriate video location, then highlight the audio
clip and press C Tab. Notice that the audio clip “snaps” into position.
