How can you adjust audio levels for a clip in the Timeline?

Adjusting audio levels for a clip in the Timeline can effectively be accomplished by modifying the audio gain or utilizing the audio track mixer. When you modify the audio gain, you are essentially changing the overall loudness of the audio clip, which allows for precise control over how the audio will sound in the final mix. This is particularly important for ensuring that the audio is balanced relative to other audio elements in the project.

Using the audio track mixer offers another layer of control, enabling you to manage levels for multiple audio tracks simultaneously. This tool provides a visual representation of the audio levels and allows for real-time adjustments during playback, making it easier to achieve the desired sound mix.

While other methods, such as applying audio effects or changing clip speed, can influence the audio characteristics, they do not specifically adjust the overall audio levels in the same way that gain modifications and track mixers do. Hence, focusing on audio gain and the audio track mixer is the most direct and effective approach for adjusting audio levels within the Timeline.
