Title:
  Multi-track audio editing using key frames (FEATURE REQUEST)

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In terms of audio, I cannot function without
  Multi-track audio editing using key frames(control points)
  (to adjust volume levels)
  At the end of the day, that is 90% of what I am doing with audio in post.
  8% of what I do involves basic EQ. 2% is sweetening and getting rid of audio artifacts hiss.

  As an semi-pro industrial producer and political guerilla
  videographer(taught video production for 3 years full time) paying the
  bills with video for law firms, it's only about the practical and
  getting down to brass tacks for me...and speed. How fast can I turn
  the video around? I need fast basic video, text graphics and audio
  editing functionality which is rock solid that renders immediately.

  There are finer points to the way Multi-track key frame audio editing
  works. The more flexible the better I guess. Also, there seem to be
  numerous video editor conditions that can cause the audio to become
  un-locked or un-synced from the video. That is the worst audio wrench
  in the machinery of turing out video fast.

  This is not strictly analogous but helps to put into perspective what
  I need and expect to get work done. I had done a fair amount of
  amateur/semi-pro linear(tape based) video editing when I got into
  digital video when a relatively inexpensive digital editor as part of
  a firewire system first possible in 1998. I did several paid jobs on
  this system. I could not have done it without "Multi-track audio
  editing using key frames". This was what my system looked like;
  perhaps the first really practical financially feasable for amateurs
  and semi-professional.

  (I will go with any version of the os and editor necasary. I do not
  yet use openshot because I need this feature to exist first.)
