Can I add background sound to capture DV ?

[ddinc]

When capturing DV with Adobe Premiere the background music
which I had recorded with the built in camcorder mic.
to the second audio channel on the tape disappeared.
How can I add background music,without erasing original sound ?
During encoding or DVD authoring?
I wish to add several mp3 files.

In Premiere you can just add another audio track with your music and adjust the volume to suit, then encode.

Most DV camcorders have a mixer in the menus to mix stereo pair A against stereo pair B. In all cases the mixer works for analog audio out. In most cases it also works with DV PCM audio out (12 bit Mode). Higher end camcorders have a 1/2 vs. 3/4 audio switch.

Thanks for the quick answer.
But being a newbie could not find how to do it
on Premiere(1,5) ???
Created another audio track but there is no menu to import
any music files

Audio is just another asset for the bin. Read the manual, it's all in there.

Turn the camera audio to the B track and capture audio again. If you can't get to it over the IEEE-1394 port, capture the analog output. This is a camcorder issue. Premiere has no way to capture both audio pairs in one pass.
