Smooth
By default, the interpolation affects the curve only after each key. However, if Smooth is enabled, the
interpolation inuences the curve before and after each key, resulting in a smoother motion.
New Track > Sound
When you render a movie le, CINEMA 4D does not include sound. To add the sound to the rendered
movie, render the sound and use a video editor to combine the sound with the movie.
This command creates a new Sound track and sequence for the object selected in the Timeline. Using
sound sequences, you can apply AIFF or WAV sound les to any objects. You will need to do this if
you want to use CINEMA 4D’s 2D and 3D sound rendering features.
If you intend to use 2D sound rendering you can adjust the volume and balance of any sound sequence
by adding keys to the sound sequence (in a similar way to within video editing programs). When
you add a key (Ctrl-click on the sequence as usual) a dialog will appear in which you can change the
volume and balance values (see below). Once you have added a key, a black curve will appear below
the sequence (when it is unfolded) to show the changing levels.
Attribute manager settings
When you select a Sound track or a key in a Sound track, the properties for the sound or key will
appear in the Attribute manager.
