Found a cool tool to convert audio to keyframes.

It's a little convoluted and I haven't tried it myself but someone made a series of tools allowing you to convert audio to keyframes and apply those keyframes to effects.

I know Premiere and After Effects has this built in and I've put in a feature request.
