The "Advanced Tools" sub-menu contains a list of functions that are valuable in specific circumstances.
The available functions are:
•Insert at Sound Level (musical sequences only)
Insert at Sound Level
This command inserts a series of ON effects into the selected area, whose intensity reflects the sound level of the music. The command finds the loudest sound across the selection and uses that sound level as the 100% intensity level. All other effects being added are scaled using that loudest sound.
