# Audio Components and Multicam

## Audio Components and Multicam

Audio Components and Multicam Specify configuration of audio components using the `mc-clip` element.

Overview

Configure the following audio components using the `mc-clip` element:

-     Enabling or disabling the component -     Mute ranges -     Volume and other audio adjustments -     Audio filters

The code listing below is a multicam project example based on the first code listing in the [Multicam Media](/documentation/professional-video-applications/multicam-media) page, with two multicam clips that have reconfigured audio components. The first clip has its audio trimmed at both ends as a JL cut. The second angle in the second clip has its audio muted for 5 seconds in its middle section.

```swift <project name="MyProject">      <sequence duration="40s" format="r2">       <spine>          <mc-clip name="MyMulticamClip" offset="0s" ref="r1" duration="20s">             <mc-source angleID="a1" srcEnable="all">                <audio-role-source role="dialogue.dialogue-1" start="1s" duration="18s" />             </mc-source>          </mc-clip>          <mc-clip name="MyMulticamClip" offset="20s" ref="r1" duration="20s">             <mc-source angleID="a1" srcEnable="video" />             <mc-source angleID="a2" srcEnable="audio">                <audio-role-source role="dialogue.dialogue-1">                   <mute start="5s" duration="10s" />                </audio-role-source>             </mc-source>          </mc-clip>       </spine>    </sequence> </project> ```

As of FCPXML 1.2, `mc-source` elements no longer support audio filters. Instead, you apply audio filters to an `mc-clip` element, which applies the effect to all active audio source angles, or to an `audio-source` element, which only applies the effect to the individual audio source, if active. Existing FCPXML 1.1 projects with audio angles on an `mc-clip` element are converted to 1.2 and later format on import.

In FCPXML 1.6, use the `audio-role-source` element  to apply audible adjustments and audio filters to an audio component identified by its role.
