Adobe Premiere Pro enables a great deal of control over visual and audio elements. During the video editing process, it's common to adjust both color levels and audio levels. Premiere Pro offers easy ways to control these levels so you can create the look and sound that fulfill your artistic vision.
1 Color Levels
Adobe Premiere Pro enables you to change both the color levels and the luminance, so you can correct the hue and adjust clips that have too much or too little light. Select the clip you want to adjust and open the "Color Correction" bin, which is located inside the Video Effects bin. Drag the sliders to for the input levels, output levels, and total range of definition. You can also adjust the shadows, midtones, and highlights using the color wheels.
2 Audio Levels
By adjusting audio levels, you can ensure that all of your clips have a similar sound and volume. Open the "Audio Meters" window from the Window menu. Use the "Audio Gain" control to adjust the input level, and use the "Volume" control to change the output volume. To adjust multiple clips at once, hold down the "Shift" key while you click each clip; when you adjust the levels, the changes will apply to all selected clips.
