Manually Syncing Clips in the Sync Clips Window
If none of the Sync By tools is appropriate for the clips in your bin, you can manually sync the
clips together by dragging each clip to the appropriate position on the Sync Clips Window
timeline. For finer control, select the clip you want to sync and press the Comma (,) or Period (.)
keys to nudge the clip backwards or forwards by one frame. Shift-Comma (,) or Shift-Period (.)
nudges the clip by 5 frames (default), or by the amount of frames set in the “Default fast nudge
length” setting in the General Settings section of the Editing panel in the User settings of the
Resolve Preferences. Each clip has its own track, and you can enable sync lock in the right-
hand Viewer to prevent accidental slipping.
Once all of the clips in the window are synced appropriately, click the Save Sync button in the
lower right-hand corner of the window.
Using Your Newly Synced Clips
After saving the sync on your clips, a new Multicam clip will appear in the Media Pool. If you
select the Thumbnail View, a Sync icon appears on all the clips you modified. If you want to
modify your sync, right-click on a thumbnail and select Open Sync Group to reopen your clips in
the Sync Clips window. Once you place your first clip on the Timeline as a reference, you are
now ready to use the Sync Bin to edit.

Sync Bin Editing
The core idea behind the Sync Bin layout is that instead of traditionally scrubbing through your
timeline and clips independently, you now only have to scrub through your timeline. In the
Media Pool, all of the clips that exist with that same timecode value will automatically scrub in
sync with the playhead. This allows you to always have the exact clips that will fit perfectly in
your timeline available at your fingertips.
Selecting this mode automatically changes the layout of the Media Pool and the Viewer to
better accommodate multi camera editing in the Cut page.
