Editing a Clip
Edit controls are activated with the
Edit
check box. Several buttons are available to define
the beginning and end of a region within a clip; associated time code displays are also
present.
These non-destructive Mark In and Mark Out trim points can be set to define a portion of a
clip to be played. These “edit pointers” do not create a new clip from the original material;
they act like virtual trims, and material outside of the trim points is excluded, but can be
retrieved by resetting the Mark pointers. After setting the Mark In and Mark Out points,
clips will play between these points. These edit values are saved with the clip.
Edits may be saved to the current clip by de-selecting the
Edit
check box, or choosing
Save
from the clip window
File
menu.
Save As
works to save the edit points to a new clip name,
even if the edits have not been saved in the current clip.
Marking the IN point
Sets the current time code value into the Mark In point time display. The
Mark In
button
can capture a time code value from the clip when it is still, or on-the-fly.
Mark In Display
Displays the time code of the Mark In point. When no Mark In point has been set manually,
this displays the Start of Message (SOM) time code (usually 00:00:00:00).
The values in this display window may be set by two methods:
Enter Mark In point from the keyboard: Use the mouse or Tab key to move between In
and Out fields. When a field is highlighted, enter a numeric value from the keyboard.
Whether a clip is still or playing, press
Mark In
to capture a time code value from the
clip’s current position.
Marking the Out Point
Sets the current time code value into the Mark Out point time display. The
Mark Out
button can capture a time code value from the clip when it is still, or on-the-fly.
Mark Out Display
Displays the Mark Out point time code. When no Mark Out point has been set manually,
this displays the EOM time code (originally the end time of the recording).
The values in this display window may be set by two methods:
