Introduction
In this episode, we'll adjust the rise and fall of the music using volume keyframes. The music rises at the beginning, fades down when the speaker talks, and fades out at the end. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe Premiere Pro series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Background music volume is rarely kept flat from start to finish. The music rises when there's no dialogue and fades down when someone is speaking. We control this using volume keyframes on the audio clip's rubber band. The piano music is on A2 under the teacher's interview.
Step 1: Rubber Band Volume
Zoom in on track A2. The white line in the middle of the music clip is the volume rubber band. Currently flat at 0 decibels, so the music competes with the teacher's voice.
Step 2: Keyframe with the Pen Tool
Select the pen tool, then click the rubber band at several points, before the teacher starts speaking, a little after that, and just before the end. Each click creates a keyframe in the shape of a point. With the selection tool, control clicks do the same thing.
Step 3: Lower the Music
Drag the rubber band section between the second and third keyframes downward, until around minus 18 decibels. The music fades down slowly as the teacher starts speaking, so that the voice is clearly audible.
Step 4: Fade In and Fade Out
Add a keyframe at the beginning of the clip, then lower it to the bottom position so the music fades in slowly. Do the same at the end of the clip so the music fades out. Or a quick way, select the end of the clip and press Control Shift for the default crossfade.
Step 5: Crossfade Between Music
Link the jazz music to A2 after the piano music, slight overlap is not needed. Link the constant power air transition from the audio transition between the two. The first music fades out while the second music comes in, without a gap and without a jump. Play through the entire sequence while paying attention to the audio meter.
Step 6: Play the Result
The music fills the opening, fades out when the teacher speaks, then smoothly transitions to jazz music and fades out at the end.
Done!
Done. We have displayed the rubber band volume, created keyframes using the pen tool and control click, lowered the music during dialogue, created a fade in and fade out, and added a crossfade constant power air between two music tracks, and played back the result. In the next episode, we will use essential sound for dialogue. Need a product advertisement video, business profile video, reels and tiktok content, or subtitles for a YouTube video?
