Once a movie has been opened in a project, you can use the Import Audio from Movie or Export Audio to Movie command, found in the File menu. After the audio has been imported, you can edit the video dialogue, record Foley, and add music with Logic Pro for Mac audio processing and editing features.
You can export audio from your project to the movie file itself, effectively overwriting the original movie soundtrack. You can also export the project audio between the left and right locators to a shortened version of the movie. This is useful for sending a preliminary mix of your soundtrack or demos of small cues and parts to other members of the production team, for example.
You can adjust the audio level and output device in the Video project settings. See Movie settings in Logic Pro.
In Logic Pro, select the audio track or tracks you want to use.
Do one of the following:
Choose File > Movie > Import Audio from Movie (or use the corresponding key command).
Control-click anywhere in the Movie track, then choose Import Audio from Movie from the shortcut menu.
Click the required checkboxes in the dialog, then click OK.
The selected audio tracks are bounced to one or more audio files, and placed in the Project Audio Browser. A new audio track is created for each movie audio track (when “On separate tracks” is chosen in the dialog), and the imported audio from the movie is added to the track (or tracks). The embedded audio is automatically muted and audio playback occurs from the Tracks area. The movie name is retained and used for the resulting audio file (or files).
If Cycle mode is turned on, Logic Pro exports only the project audio and section of movie between the left and right locators. Otherwise, the exported movie contains the project audio that is encompassed by the start and end points of the movie.
In Logic Pro, do either of the following:
Choose File > Movie > Export Audio to Movie (or use the corresponding key command).
Control-click anywhere in the Movie track, then choose Export Audio to Movie from the shortcut menu.
Type a name in the Save As field, then choose the location where you want to save the movie.
Choose the audio format, sample rate, and bit depth from the respective pop-up menus, then click Save.
Select the checkbox in the Enable column for each audio track of the original movie you want to include in the new movie, then click OK.
