Two video sources with sound tracks may be synchronized automatically via their
audio material. To do this, use the "Align with other audio objects (view page 116)"
function in the
audio objects context menu.
It is also important that you make all effect settings for the output material (e.g. video
or audio cleaning) before the multicam edit on the objects on the source track and on
the master audio track (view page 116). These effects will be transferred to the objects
in the target track with the e
dit. Otherwise, you will have to apply the effects from
every single object to the target track.
You can activate "Multicam" mode with this button or with the "Multicam"
command in the "Edit" menu.
Source tracks and preview images
The assignment of tracks as source tracks for the multicam cut takes place
automatically. A maximum of 9 tracks may be used as source at the same time.
When the multicam mode is activated, the source tracks will be assigned to all tracks
containing video objects starting from track 3.
You can also conduct or change the assignment manually. To do so, right click on the
trackbox of the corresponding track to active or deactivate a track as a source track.
The source tracks are marked using color. This can be accomplished by users if more
than 9 source tracks are used.
For every assigned track, a preview appears in the source monitor, and the frame's
color corresponds to the color of the track, letting you assign each preview image to
the corresponding track.
