my bad. I thought it was video post, but it's the curve editer.
(and in the AVA award, it is against the rules to post process in anything other than max)

Here's how to do it

~once you have your animation, go to Graph Editors --> Curve Editor~Then in the left browser area, right click on the sound option, and go to properties
~From the Sound Options, click Choose Sound
~Find your sound that you want

Now I'm not sure how to move this sound to a different frame to start, though i'm sure it's possible and I can look into if you want, but there are two options from here.

~Create Entire Audio including blank space so it will match up with the animation

OR (this is why I was thinking video post)

~You just save a .3ds file of your audio only, no matter the length
~Then in a new file, use video post to add your animation file, and the audio file (choose perspective if thats what you used for your curve editor) and then you can move the audio to wherever you'd like.

I'm certainly free for more help if you need it. I love helping others with max.
