I am still new to MixPad, as well as to the whole business of music editing, so I am sorry if my question here comes out as silly or even, perhaps, annoying. On one hand, we can change the volume of the whole track on the panel to the left from it as shown here: https://i.stack.imgur.com/im8fB.jpg On the other hand, we can also change the volume of a clip on a track by choosing the corresponding effect (Fx -> Add Effect -> Volume -> Amplify) as shown here: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Pcz0j.jpg As I have recently learned on this thread, if you apply an effect to one clip on the track, this effect will be applied to the whole track. If so, then I don't see the difference between changing the volume via the left panel and changing it via volume effect. What's the difference between these two? Is it like the volume-effect way is finer? -
I was practicing and created duplicate effect chains. I saved them as a favorite and they are now at the bottom of the effects box in the Video category. FX appears within the clip, so when you press on that and go to the bottom of the box, you can see all the saved effects I made. Unfortunately, I made duplicate effects, too many of them. Thank you in advance, Borate and NationalSolo.

MixPad 5.59, selected a track, enabled the Fx tab, went into the effects selector menu, created a simple effect chain, but IT DID NOT change anything on that track. The user manual gives details about each effect, but doesn't mention how to actually apply this to a selected track? What am I missing here? Many thanks for any help offered here

I'm using 4.33 of VP and have the following 'issue' when previewing my sequence. Having added various transitions to the clips on my video, why (after the initial 100% CPU usage as it presumably creates the preview) does it say "Building preview, please wait" or similar every time that I then watch that video sequence? The CPU is idle (which indicates to me that there is no outstanding work to do) but I hit the space bar and I get that message and the effect (a simple dissolve, a wipe from right) is not shown (I get a frozen image) as that message is displayed. Drives me nuts! Eventually, after several attempts at watching the clip(s) with the transition it sorts itself out (and the final video always seems to be fine) but why this "Building preview" message? Is there anything I can do to assist (I've already reduced the preview resolution to far below what I'd like it to be, to see if it helped - it didn't). Perhaps 4.40 cures this but it's not mentioned on the release notes.

🤔😔 So disappointing, this Desk FX equalizer by NCH. TASK: to control audio output on Windows 10 OS computer using audio equalizer with audio compressor effects ( functions). I though, I have finally found a relatively simple software ( in DeskFX) to control my audio output from windows 10 PC to my amplifier and 7.1 speaker system, BUT... no.... it does not work... The amplifier is OK... I can even set GAIN, but I CANNOT APPLY ANY COMPRESSION to the PC audio output....COMPRESSOR DOES NOT WORK ON THIS software. I cannot compress the audio output from the audio PC card !!!??? I just wanted to control the video scenes, emphasize dialog in movies and in other video recordings, and compress the high dB level of the action scenes audio... I cannot do it with this NCH software. SAD... thank you

Hi. Is there an effect or plugin effect that can fade a color clip to B&W and visa versa? Also is there a transition that fades in and out to to black in a circle shape (like old movies), and can be positioned anywhere in the frame? Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi, I want to make a video for youtube. The video is vertical so I don't want the black bars (right, left) to be shown. Therefore I followed the instructions, duplicated the video, added it in Video Track 1 & Video Track 2, applied the effects Scale and Blur on Video Track 1 (is the lower Video Track). While the Sequence Preview shows the video exactly the way I want it when I'm exporting it to 1080p mp4 it's all wrong! I don't get the result I want... In Clip Preview though I don't see the result I want. I think I'm missing something but don't know what. Any help would be very much appreciated!

Basically, I have installed multiple different typewriter fonts onto my laptop, due to the fact that the standard pre-loaded fonts are, frankly, pretty crap looking if you're trying to make an authentic typewriter effect. Yet, despite the installed fonts showing up in the font list, the text is not being displayed in any of the typewriter fonts upon selecting them, rather, they simply appear in a generic font, Arial, I think. Am I missing something here? Do I have to do something with the fonts in my VideoPad folder to get the text to actually take the form of it?

I've been using Voxal for a bit now and right when I thought I had it figured out, it started to wig out. I have a few of the voices set to hotkeys as I need to switch through them (usually just to and from normal) relatively quickly. Recently, if I change more than twice then all effects drop and the only thing coming through is my normal voice. Voxal isn't throwing any errors either. Nothing shows up in the text box at the bottom. I checked in supported programs to see if it was just Voxal preview that wasn't working but had the same issue. I can't get the voices back unless I close Voxal and ALL programs using my mic and then reopen them both. And let me be clear: I'm not switching back and forth between effects a couple times every second. There is a decent amount of time between the switches and it ends up just going back to my voice. Is there a setting I'm skipping over or something like that? Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm completely lost at this point and any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance

some clips on the sequence I have added the zoom or pan and zoom effect. Now I would like to adjust the color of some clips. when added to the effects on a clip that has already been zoomed it crops the clip to the upper right corner. if I color correct a clip I haven’t already zoomed, everything stays normal. but when added to the clips that I’ve already zoomed, it like crops them again, and leaves a bunch of black space around it. ive tried moving the zoom effect up and down the effects list, it doesn’t help. I’ve tried adding color to the whole sequence instead of individually. It doesn’t help. im fairly new to this, so I’m hoping I’m just missing something simple. PLEASE HELP! I’ve worked hard on this . 😓

I want to change the hue of a video with the tempo of a song. Currently, I split video clips up so that their duration is a multiple of the duration of a musical "measure", and then I make a template with hue such that transitions in hue occur at the beat of the song. Then I save it as a template. Every song has a different tempo though... Using the GUI is really tedious and repetitive. I would like to make a simple CSV file (with google sheets or excel) with time, parameter, and value columns. Perhaps there's a good way to manipulate the "curve handles" with the CSV too, but I won't ask for that much. Obviously, importing CSVs could be useful for several video effects' parameters, but the most useful for me would be "Motion" and "Hue." I don't want to sound naive, but this can be achieved pretty easily, right? I'd gladly pay a reasonable fee to upgrade to get these features.

I was experimenting with Wavepad and must have changed settings somehow. Now when I record, it sounds very muffled. Is there a way to display what effects or properties were used in the file so that I can troubleshoot? Or is there a way to return Wavepad to normal recording setup? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Does VP offer an easy way to place “idea bubbles” over a person’s head in a photo image or video clip? Any way to do this? Size it? Place it? Then have it show then go on precise cues? Thanks!

When I add a video effect it doesn't save and I don't know why. I add an effect to a clip then save it and then when I open VideoPad Video Editor again it's gone. Is anyone else having the same problem?

I was trying to make a count down timer for the start of my live streams. Is there a timer effect that I could use in videopad, or any other ways other than changing each frame? My YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVz1QN79z6ePut0RQiQIjPg

So i am currently using VideoPad to make a short film for school and its turning out really good thanks to VideoPad! However there is one re-occurring issue that i just can't seem to fix, and is really frustrating because it shouldn't be happening at all and i cant seem to figure out why it's happening! Basically some of my clips simply are not rendering my effects for the entire portion of a clip. I'll play a clip in my timeline and the effects that i have placed with it (such as Vignette, tint and color adjustments) only show for a quick second and then disappear for the rest of the clip. This is a big problem because it causes the whole portion of the video to bounce back and forth from having the effects show, to having them not show, which looks really bad. I could really use some help on how to fix this, as it is really frustrating to deal with. Nate

Hi, I'm editing a movie but some parts are very dancing. I want to solve this using Stabilize Video but the button is blind. How can I make it clear so I can use it? Grz, Marc

Hi there! I enjoy using MixPad, but one detail drives me crazy: While working on a project, the effects that I have added to my tracks, and that are from VST plug-ins, will sometimes "reset" all at once. By "reset" i mean that the settings I have chosen in the effects window will disappear, so that there is no setting. - The "native" effects do not reset ... it's only the effects I have added to MIxPad via VST plug-ins (and all of them at once). - While my chosen settings are "erased", the little box that shows whether the effect is active, remains checked. - The reset does not seem to be linked to anything, such as saving the file or exporting the file. It seems to happen randomly. Have any of you guys had the same problem?

Hi, new user here. I searched everywhere but couldn't find it... I have still pictures on the time line. When adding a video effect on a photo, like PAN&ZOOM, the effect will take as long as the clip takes. What I am trying to achieve is the zoom effect to take 3 seconds, while the clip is shown for 6 seconds. Is that doable? Kind regards, Johan

It would be cool if we could apply video or audio effects to an entire track, add polygon masks and adjust keyframes whenever possible, instead of just being able to apply effects to individual clips.
-
Could the scale effects be improved to be more precise? Specifically, making the numerical scaling in the video effects that of at least three decimal numbers instead of just two (eg: X.XXX instead of X.XX), as trying to scale some footage to match other footage isn't as precise as I'd like. Don't know if this would also require the position effect to be improved the same way.

So I recently found voxal and I really like it much like all the other NCH programs that I have but it's missing a few VERY important features. One being an "auto-tune" effect (but I currently don't need that so that's fine) and the other being a "glitch" effect. What a glitch effect would look like would be random/periodic audio stutter mixed with random/period pitch fluctuation (meaning that your voice would kind repeat in a frantic manner and while doing so your voice may rise or lower a bit in pitch then return to normal till then next random moment that the glitch effect takes effect). I would assume it would have a frequentcy option for how often you want it to happen and a strength in htz for how strong or weak the stutter would be and 2 more gauges for how powerful the low pitch would be and one for how powerful the high pitch would be. The end product could sound something like this:

I'm having the same issue with transparent images automatically having a black background applied to what is transparent when applying visual affects. I'm on windows 7 with videopad v5.03.

I am trying to add a motion blur effect to my video. I have put the video in the timeline, and then I open the effects panel by right-clicking on the video in the timeline (not in the media window) and clicking "effects". The effect window open fine, I am able to add my motion blur, adjust keyframes, and everything seems to work. I can clearly see the motion blur in effect in the clip preview (my links to pictures won't accept), but when I try viewing it in the sequence editor, it doesn't look like there's any motion blur beyond what comes with the camera. Is this just a visual bug and the rendered video will look fine, or is there something else wrong that I need to fix? Thanks
