Hi
This a problem I came across but in fact I hadn't found the correct place to click on.
Yes, you can "Unlink" the sound from a clip in the sequence line and move it about, leaving the clip mute. But as I found, you can't copy/paste it anywhere else. What you may think is now an independant sound file isn't, it is still associated with the parent clip. If you delete the clip, your carefully unlinked and repositioned sound segment will also be deleted.
To create a separate sound file from a clip, you right click the clip in question in the Media list, window not in the sequence line. You will then get the option in the contextual menu that appears to "Save audio track as a separate file".
If you take this option the audio track will appear in the media list window as an mp3 file and at the same time will be automatically saved to the folder on your PC that holds the original video clip.
Hope this helps

Thanks, Sounds simple enough. But, After right click on file in media list the context menu doesn't give me the option to save as separate file. The options it gives me are, Add item(s)to Sequence, Remove Item(s), Add file(s), Stablize Videos, Remove item, and File details. I do have the paid for version of VideoPad Video editor.
