First of all, you have to launch iMovie 11. And then please drag and drop a video clip that you want to apply audio effects to the project. If you have already had it in the project, just click to select it. You can also select an audio clip. But, you should pay attention that when you choose a video clip you can only modify the audio effect in the video itself, not that one you added to the videos. Next please move your mouse over the clip that you’ve chosen and hit the gear on it. A drop down menu appears. Choose the “Clip Adjustment” option.

Note: You may encounter compatibility issue when open video clips in iMovie since there is a limitation on format compatibility in iMovie. So, if you are unlucky to suffer this, you are encouraged to convert them to iMovie formats with Video Converter. How about the audio compatibility issue when adding a sound clip to your project in iMovie? In this case, you need the Audio Converter (or Audio Converter for Mac) to convert the original audio file to another format well-supported by iMovie like MP3.
