Adding background music

[mavnick]

I am having a senior moment, but I know I was able to do this at one point. I am working with Edius 4.0, I have my video with audio tracks on A1 and A2. I need to set some background music without disturbing the original audio. When I drag the music to the timeline it oblitirates the original audio. Even if I select say A3 to drop it in it automatically goes to A1 and A2. What am I doing wrong?

Have you patched channels 1 and 2 to audio tracks 3 and 4? If they're still patched to 1 and 2 it will want to put them there. Or load your music into your source monitor, select track 3 and cut it into place, avoiding the drag and drop issue.

I think that you have to clear the audio track mapping...
