Working with Audio in
Montage Themes
When working with Montage Themes you may notice that some of
the drop zones have an audio symbol and some do not. This varies by theme and template. Here is an example of a drop zone with an
audio symbol in the upper-right corner.
What this means is that the audio portion of any video in
that drop zone with be included in the Montage template’s audio. Note that once a video is added to the drop
zone that supports audio, the waveform for the Montage clip now reflects
this. See the following screenshot, the
previously flat waveform now shows where the audio occurs.
If you want to mute the audio for a specific drop zone,
simply click on the audio symbol to that is has a slash mark through it.
Adding Custom
Audio to a Montage Theme
There is no tool in the Montage Theme itself to add custom
audio that will play during the Montage clip; however it can be done in a few
simple steps by editing in the Timeline.
To have your own audio play during Montage template, simply
add the desired audio clip to the Sound Effect or Music Track directly below
the Montage Clip in the Timeline. See
the image below for an example:
In this example the new audio added with play as well as the
audio supplied with the video that was added to the Montage drop zones. If you only want the new audio to play and do
not care to hear the audio from the added video in Montage, just mute the audio
the Montage Properties as described above.
