# Adjusting the audio level of an individual clip

1. In the Timeline, select the clip you would like to adjust.
2. Go to **Window** on the menu bar and select **Audio Clip Mixer**.
3. Play the clip in the Timeline to monitor the audio levels in the Audio Clip Mixer. The audio track names in the Audio Clip Mixer correspond to the audio track names in the Timeline (A1 in the Timeline is A1 in the Mixer, etc.)
4. To adjust the audio level of the selected clip, click and drag the track’s Fader in the Audio Clip Mixer. (Note: audio levels should generally be between -12 and -6 db.)
5. To exit the Audio Clip Mixer, go to **Window** on the menu bar. Choose **Source Monitor** and select your clip from the fly-out menu.
