It's worth reading through the manual to learn useful tricks, such as how to easily create J-cuts and L-cuts, which let you start or end the audio a little before or after the scene, respectively. Those are the sort of professional capabilities that set Premiere Elements apart. Drag a line on the timeline's video tracks to adjust the opacity of a clip. We wish the timeline also offered simple rubber-band audio-level adjusting, as in Apple iMovie.
