Dragging several clips into the Timeline as one contiguous series of edited clips:
1 Change the sort order of the Media Pool’s browser area to put the clips into the order
in which you want them to appear. In Thumbnail view you can use the Sort Order
menu, but in List view you can click the header of any metadata column to sort by that
column’s data.
Using the Sort Order menu to change the
sort order of clips in the Media Pool
2 Use the Media Pool thumbnails, the Media Pool List view Filmstrip, or the Source
Viewer to set In and Out points to define the part of each clip that you want to edit into
the Timeline.
3 Select the Media Pool clips you want to edit into the Timeline by dragging a bounding
box, Command-dragging multiple bounding boxes over different sets of clips, by
Shift-clicking a range of clips, or by Command-clicking individual non-contiguousclips.
4 Drag any of the selected clips to the desired position in the Timeline to perform
anoverwrite edit.
The clip(s) you drag overwrite whatever other clips they overlap in the Timeline.
Multiple clips dragged from the Media Pool will be edited in the order in which
they’resorted in the Media Pool, using each clip’s In and Out points.
It’s possible to edit audio clips into the Timeline so that each clip’s timecode lines up with the
Timeline Ruler. This can be useful if you’re organizing multiple source audio recordings that you
want to synchronize together on multiple tracks.
Dragging multiple clips to edit them into a track at their timecode positions:
1 Select the Media Pool clips you want to edit into the Timeline by dragging a bounding
box, Command-dragging multiple bounding boxes over different sets of clips, by Shift-
clicking a range of clips, or by Command-clicking individual non-contiguous clips.
2 Hold Command-Shift down, and drag the selected clips into the track you want them to
appear, to perform an overwrite edit.
Each clip edited into that track appears at the same timecode position as its embedded
timecode. This means that if you were recording time-of-day timecode, each clip will appear on
the Timeline at the time it was recorded. A series of clips recorded during hour 10 through 13
will appear distributed throughout hours 10-13 on your timeline.
