Automating Audio Filter Parameters with Keyframes

You can add keyframes for any audio filter parameter, just as you can with video filter
parameters. Unlike with video filter parameters, you can add keyframes to an audio
filter parameter during playback as long as the Record Audio Keyframes button is
selected in the Audio Mixer.

Keyframe Controls in the Filters Tab of the Viewer

To the right of each control is a set of keyframe controls. Like audio levels or stereo pan,
filters can be keyframed to change their effect on your clip over time.

For a detailed description of these controls, see “

Viewing and Adjusting a Filter’s

Parameters

” on page 223.

Adjusting Audio Filter Parameter Keyframes

You can add keyframes to audio filter parameters using the Selection and Pen tools,
just as you would for video filters.

To set a keyframe while playback is paused, do one of the following:

m

Move the playhead in the keyframe graph area of the Viewer Filters tab to the time
where you want to put a keyframe, then click the keyframe button for the parameter
you want to set.
