Identifying a Synchronization
Point
The Pro Tools Identify Sync Point command lets
you identify a specific point within a region for
audio spotting purposes.
Imagine the following sound effects spotting
scenario: You have a single sound effect that
consists of a creaky door slamming shut, fol-
lowed by a few seconds of ambient reverbera-
tion. The slam portion of the effect—which you
must precisely match to picture—occurs neither
at the very beginning of the audio file nor at the
very end. It is somewhere in the middle, making
it tough to spot. In this scenario, use the Iden-
tify Sync Point command to create a point in
the region and synchronize that point to a
SMPTE frame.
To create a sync point in a region:
1
Do one of the following:
• Click with the Selector tool at the point in
the region that you want to synchronize to
a SMPTE frame location.
– or –
• Press the Down Arrow key while playing
back.
2
Choose Region > Identify Sync Point. The cur-
rent SMPTE time is automatically entered as the
SMPTE location for the sync point. A small
down arrow appears at the bottom of the region,
with a vertical, light grey line indicating the lo-
cation of the sync point.
For more information on Sync Points, see
“Sync Points” on page 434.
