Clipchamp - Adjust and Detach Audio in Clipchamp Tutorial

Adjust and detach audio in Clipchamp opens by showing how to manage volume on the video’s original track, then mutes the video to add a separate audio layer with a lower volume for background music. It demonstrates detaching audio from a clip via the timeline or right-click, creating a new track, and resetting voice levels. The guide also covers noise suppression on a standalone track and notes potential naturalness loss from frequency edits, while suggesting quiet recording as best practice.

especially when it comes to controlling the volume.

00:00:09

Let's look at an example.

00:00:15

Here we can hear that the effect is combined with the video's original audio track

00:00:20

and the overall volume is much too high.

00:00:24

The first thing I can adjust is therefore the volume.

00:00:28

I select the relevant track or tracks and use the

00:00:31

volume slider in the property panel on the right.

00:00:38

That's better,

00:00:39

but I wanna change the video's background music while keeping my sound effect.

00:00:44

First I'll mute the original video by clicking the speaker icon.

00:00:48

I then add a separate audio track from my media

00:00:51

with a slight overlap and lower its volume.

00:00:54

Let's see what it sounds like.

00:01:03

Now let's look at a 2nd example

00:01:05

where the audio was recorded in a very noisy environment.

00:01:09

This is a clip champ voice recording

00:01:11

with a lot of background noise.

00:01:15

We can clearly hear the banging sounds in the background.

00:01:18

I can make several adjustments with this recording.

00:01:22

I separate the audio from the video of

00:01:24

the captured media using the detached audio option,

00:01:28

which is also available by right clicking the clip on the timeline.

00:01:33

I now have a separate track containing the recorded voice

00:01:37

and another containing the video.

00:01:39

Be aware that separating the audio also adds the extracted audio track to my media.

00:01:44

In addition,

00:01:45

the voice volume has been reset to 100%,

00:01:49

so I'll adjust it again.

00:01:51

A standalone audio track can also benefit from the noise suppression option.

00:01:56

That's exactly what I'm interested in here,

00:01:58

so I'll enable it.

00:01:59

Let's listen to the result.

00:02:01

This is a clip champ voice recording

00:02:03

with a lot of background noise.

00:02:08

Indeed it works,

00:02:09

but be aware that depending on the audio track,

00:02:13

some frequencies may be suppressed,

00:02:16

making the results sound slightly less natural.

00:02:19

The best solution is still to record in a quiet environment whenever possible,

00:02:24

separating the tracks also allows me to remove the video

00:02:28

while keeping the voice track,

00:02:30

for example,

00:02:32

to introduce another character.

00:02:35

This is a clip champ voice recording

00:02:37

with a lot of background noise.

00:02:40

Very good.

00:02:41

Although Clipchamp doesn't provide native lip sync functionality,

00:02:45

it's audio editing and management options

00:02:48

should be sufficient for most situations.
