The Timeline tool in Add Audio mode differs from Video Editing mode. We'd like to draw your attention to the fact that AVS Video Editor offers you the opportunity to edit audio track you want to include in your project with advanced AVS Audio Editor.

AVS Video Editor allows you to apply one or several audio tracks to your media file. For convenience of use you can change the sequence of audio reflection or resize them at the Timeline. It's possible to create one track using fragments from several tracks. For that use drag-and-drop method.

Note: this is how the way of displaying the whole audio track differs from the trimmed one.

Whole Audio Track
Trimmed Audio Track

At each audio track reflected at the Timeline you can see envelope that depicts the volume control. You can regulate it differently according to your project's details. To add a control point to the envelope, double-click within the envelope line (where the mouse cursor changes to a hand) and drag the control point to the location where you want it. To move a point on the envelope, click and hold the point and drag it to a new location.

Note: in case you move the point more than 20 pixels over the track line up or down, the point will be deleted. You can use this feature to smooth transition between two tracks. When the mouse cursor is located over a point, you will see it change from an arrow to a rhombus.

It's a nice idea to use markers in file editing. It will help you designate specific cursor positions to make editing process more effective.
