Automatically adjust the synchronization of a multicam clip
The instructions below describe two automatic methods for synchronizing angles in a
multicam clip.
1 To open the Angle Editor, do one of the following:
Double-click a multicam clip in the Event Browser. Â
Control-click a multicam clip in the Event Browser or the Timeline and choose Open Â
in Angle Editor from the shortcut menu.
2 In the out-of-sync angle, click the pop-up menu to the right of the angle name and
choose one of the following:
 Sync to Monitoring Angle: This option opens a two-up display in the Viewer, showing
the frame at the skimmer position on the left and the frame at the playhead
position of the monitoring angle on the right. In the out-of-sync angle, skim to a
frame and click to sync the angle to the playhead position. All the clips in the angle
move together to align the frame you clicked with the playhead. To close the two-
up display in the Viewer, click Done.
 Sync Angle to Monitoring Angle Using Audio: This option compares the audio
waveforms in the selected angle to the waveforms in the monitoring angle, and
then moves the clips in the selected angle to synchronize them with those in the
monitoring angle. This is the same audio sync technology that you can use to
automatically analyze and sync clips together into a compound clip.
Note: Some audio recordings are not suited for use with this feature. Choosing
this option may result in long processing times during which Final Cut Pro is not
available for editing.
Adjust the order of angles in a multicam clip
You can adjust the order in which angles appear in the Angle Viewer and the
Angle Editor.
Note: If you’ve already started a multicam edit on a multicam clip in the Timeline,
changing the angle order does not aect which angle is chosen for each cut and
switch edit.
1 To open the Angle Editor, do one of the following:
Double-click a multicam clip in the Event Browser. Â
Control-click a multicam clip in the Event Browser or the Timeline and choose Open Â
in Angle Editor from the shortcut menu.
