Again, thanks for this. I shall try this with the next one to be built

Thanks. That's sort of what I am doing, it was just that last close zoom that was / is evading me. I am running a video of a set of around an hour, and replacement audio that I tried to start around the same time, but which is never exact and is then run through a mastering suite for level & fine tune. I lined up the start pretty well, but the closer in I could get the easier it is to match the waves. Then I throw in cutting bits of dead time between songs for guitar changes out and because I cannot select both video and replacement audio before splitting deleting a snippet and shuffling back I end up having to resync the tracks. Still I am in a learning curve at the mo & I'm sure I'll get there sometime

Noob question and I did a search but did not find and answer to what I want. Basically I am editing videos of various bands I play in, and as part of that edit process I and replacing the camcorder audio with better recorded and mastered audio from another dedicated digital recorder. To do this I am looking for spikes on the two wave forms from the original and replacing audio track and then dragging the new into line. To do this I have been zooming in on the timeline, but it is that last little bit whether using the NUM + key or the slider or + magnifying glass. I always seem to go from not quite in enough to far to far in. Is there a key combination, say Ctrl and + that will allow for a finer zoom?

That is particularly vexing as I have the same problem. Means I need to run a conversion (that takes forever on vids of gigs where the set is an hour long )
