Using Group Modes to Control Which
Grades Ripple and Which Don’t
When you create a group and then select any clip that is a member of that group, additional
Node Editor modes become available that let you apply multiple levels of grades to the clips in
that group.
Available options in the Node Editor
modes drop-down
For clips that aren’t grouped, two dots at the top of the Node Editor let you switch between Clip
and Timeline modes via a single click. If you’re working on a clip that’s part of a group, four dots
will be displayed to allow fast access to the Pre-Clip and Post-Clip Group modes as well.
Four dots at the top of the Node Editor let you
choose which mode you’re working on
Node trees you create using the Group Pre-Clip and Group Post-Clip modes automatically
ripple changes to every member of a group. Node trees created with the Clip mode are specific
to each clip. Node trees created with the Timeline grade affect the entire Timeline, all at once.
Combining node trees made using these different modes makes it easy combine clip-specific
changes with group-wide changes that make grading faster.
 Group Pre-Clip: Node trees assembled in this mode affect every clip in the group
simultaneously. Pre-Clip adjustments are useful for creating an overall grade that you
want to use as a starting point for the scene, such as when you need to normalize a
group of log-encoded clips in a specific way, or when you want to create a base grade
that generally improves every clip in a scene.
 Clip: The Clip grade corresponds to the local or remote version associated with
that clip. Node trees assembled in the Clip mode only affect the specific clip that’s
selected. All Local and Remote versions you create are in Clip mode. Clip adjustments
are useful for matching clips to one another in a scene, doing clip-specific secondary
adjustments, or making any other sort of adjustment that you only want applied to the
current clip, rather than to the group as a whole. Clip adjustments are applied after Pre-
Clip adjustments.
