Unlinking Audio from Video

[Deadhorse]

I have some other video files, but i cant seem to be able to edit the video without effecting the audio, and it is the audio that i want to keep the whole audio without editing it. How can this be done?

Deadhorse,

Take your unedited video+audio into Premiere as-is. Export the audio-only to a separate file. Import that new file and put it on, oh, Audio 2. Then either delete the Audio 1 track that came with your video or mute that track.

Edits to the video won't affect the audio in Audio 2.

Cheers,
Edward

you can unlink you Video from your audio by right mouse clicking on your video & selecting unlink audio & Video

if you only want to affect your Video with cuts and new scenes but want to keep the overall length sync to the audios length, move your Video after unlinking to Video 2 the audio will stay in audio i. After cutting the bits from the original vid drop the new video onto vid 1b ,& move it until happy with the result, mute its audio

I use this method when using 2 cameras on the one subject and want to alternate between the 2. the 2 audios can make it easier to sync the 2 videos by matching the peaks of the audios
