Placing Your Sound On Your Timeline

To place the audio in your scene, you're going to create a new layer. Rather than drag and drop the audio file onto a keyframe as we normally would, however, instead you're going to click on the first frame in the layer, then go to the Properties taskbar at the bottom of the screen. To the top right you'll see a dropdown that says "Sound" and, in the options, "none". If you click on that, now, it should expand to show a list of all audio files in your library--mine only shows one, because I have one file: jeffbeck.mp3. Select that file.
