Multi-cam editing (Plus/Premium version) 127

The material from this source will now be inserted into the target track. The new
object ends at the next object. The portion below an existing object is overwritten in
the process.

Overwrite range
You can overwrite a selected area of the target track with one of the source videos.
• At the upper edge of the project window, select an area to edit by determining
the in point by clicking with the left mouse button and the out point by right
clicking. Or use the corresponding buttons in the transport control.
• Click the desired source in the program monitor.

The target track will be overwritten with the video material from the selected source
in the selected area.

Master audio track

Normally, videos in the source track are edited together with their audio tracks. Since
the original sound can differentiate from camera to camera due to different camera
positions, you will probably prefer using either the soundtrack from only one camera
for all settings, or to replace the soundtrack completely (for music videos, for example,
you will use the studio version of the original track).

Right click on the track box of one of the source audio tracks or a different audio track
and select "Multicam: Master audio track" from the context menu to assign a master
audio track for multicam editing. The master audio track will be appear in a dark color.

Now, during every multicam cut, material from the master audio track will be inserted
on track 2, independent of the source track used.

Synchronize video objects using the audio track

Video objects can be synchronized using their audio tracks. This is done by comparing
the audio tracks for similarities. If videos come from the same recording environment,
the same acoustic events will be found on their audio tracks (e.g. the sound of the
clapper board).

Synchronization of multiple objects on one track is possible.
1. On the reference track, select all audio objects that are to act as reference
positions.
2. On another track, select all audio objects that should be moved.
3. Choose the "Align with other audio objects on this track" function from the
audio object context menu.
