I have done what the manual suggested but am having a lot of issues with reducing sound. I have one piece that needs reducing. I eventually worked a fiddly work around to complete tthis project. But it took time. None of what the manual said worked. I used ctrl U but could make it stick at the lower level. All help appreciated.

PS if you can get closer to Customer Service than I can please give them a kick in the proverbial. There is a purchasing problem which they have failed to resolve so far and they don't seem interested in fixing it so I can upgrade. Their communication is snail pace and very frustrating.

Maybe I did not understand your question.

The Ctrl + U volume control or speaker button is the output volume for speakers, there is no issue with editing.
To change the volume of a clip as a whole, in the timeline, drag the sound line up or down.
If you want to adjust the volume on specific parts of a clip, hold the Ctrl key while clicking the sound line, a white ball appears, drag to adjust to that position.

Another way to adjust, select the audio in the timeline, click the Keyframe button, in Volume you can make fine adjustments. XEON-E5-2680 v4 / Mem. 16GB DDR4

Thank you. There is no line to move. I wanted to reduce the volume for one clip.

Thank you. I think it maybe because I am using a lot of Video Collage on this one. Would that be the reason and is there anything I can do because there is audio.
