Chapter 6, Setting Up Realtime Effects with Adobe Premiere
Previewing your effects
There are several ways to preview your effects:
•
Preview entire effect Click the Preview button at the bottom of the
page, or press
ALT+SPACEBAR.
• Preview from Positioner Press SPACEBAR. To stop the preview, press
SPACEBAR again.
• Preview a specified range To highlight the range you want to preview,
SHIFT+drag on the Ruler. Click the Preview button to view the range
you’ve specified. To clear the selected range,
CTRL+click the Ruler.
• Scrub through your effect Drag the Positioner through the section of the
effect you want to preview. You can also
ALT+drag the Positioner to
render-scrub your effect (same as when you render-scrub the Timeline).
•
Toggle track state for previewing By default, the track state is set to
preview all tracks every time you open the
Matrox Effect Setup dialog box
(that is, the effect track,
Transform track, and Crop track). You can switch
between previewing all tracks, one track only, or without the current effect
by toggling the track state as follows:
$ Preview current track’s effects Click the Toggle Track State button
on the toolbar once (or press
CTRL+F2) to disable all tracks except the
current track. Use any of the methods for previewing your clip. Your effect
is shown with only the settings of the highlighted track applied. For
example, if you want to add a colored border to your advanced DVE, but
the transform and crop settings are obscuring the clip, click the
Toggle
Track State
button to see the advanced DVE without the transform and
crop settings.
$ Preview without current effect Click the Toggle Track State button
on the toolbar again (or press
CTRL+F2) to disable all the tracks. Use any
of the methods for previewing your clip. Your clip is shown without the
current effect applied.
¦NoteClick the Toggle Track State button again to return to the default
track state (that is, previewing all tracks).
•
Preview current source only Click the Solo Mode button on the toolbar
(or press
F2). Only the source for the effect that you are currently editing is
previewed. All other effects on your clip and all other sources on the
Timeline are ignored. If it’s not possible to preview all sources in the
segment you’re editing, solo mode will automatically be set and the
Solo
Mode
button won’t be available. This would happen, for example, when a
segment contains too many layers, or contains a Premiere software effect
(and you didn’t choose to ignore these effects as explained on page 53). To
see the segment with all applied effects, use the render-scrub feature
