Ducking

Audio ducking

Audio Ducking means to decrease the volume level of specified audio when second specified audio is present. In video editing software, audio ducking is usually used to lower background music anytime a person speaks. When the person finishes speaking, the background music raises again. This technique can be used in any scenario where you want to be heard clearly.
