If you mean the music is playing at the same time people are talking,
then no I'm afraid that's not possible.

Hi, I have made up a movie of an art exhibition opening and there are 2
people talking on the 1st half--intros etc..and I have added music for the
rest of the movie which is panning over the artists work but the background
noise on the clip isloud. Is there any way to turn off the original sound so
that my added music will be on it's own?

No It's not what I was getting at. I filmed the Art opening with the
introductions by the 2 people at the beginning. Iwant to keep the
introductions but Iwould like to turn off the audio of the rest of the film
so that the audio mp3file I have added can play on its own without the
general hubbub in the background. It works fine with the added audio but it
would be nice to be able to turn off the 2nd half of my original filmed
audio. Maybe it is not possible..it seems like such a simple thing that WMM
have not added?

The trick would be to remove the unwanted audio from the original film in
WMM BEFORE you add your MP3 soundtrack. Once the new audio is overlayed on
the old, it's too late.
