Speed bump: Adjusting raw clip volume and understanding gain
Premiere has a unique ability to adjust the clip's volume in mass before it's handled anywhere else. And that's called gain. Taking a look inside a Premiere, I can click on any clip. For example, I'm going to open up this music. And I can go up to clip audio options and choose gain. It's G for gain. And whatever I do with this, for example, take the gain down 10 decibels, when I say OK, you can see the waveform actually change. Now this is a really powerful capability because you can do this on a massive clips at once. And you can use something that's normally forbidden by most of my sound mixers which is normalize. So I have, for example, all of these machine clips some of which are truly, truly loud. And if I hit the letter G, I can set up adjust in the gain from wherever it is, I can say normalize each and every one of these to minus 20 decibels, making them all generally quiet. This is a phenomenal way to quickly fix before you mix and to do things in mass. Now, all of these have…
