    Very cool - nice tip on the Stereo Mixer. I've been using AE for years and never knew to do that.

    Thanks Nick. Always love the way you introduce yourself. Some great tips in this tutorial.

    But I've another great tip for people working with audio in AE.

    If you scrub through your timeline holding the Apple/Command Key (on a Mac) or I'd assume Ctrl on a PC then it allows you to hear the audio as you are scrubbing.

    I often find this invaluable when matching animation to music, and it completely saved my life when working with audio in After Effects.
