Prepareing Multiple Clips Using Batch Capture (For Non-digitized Clips)

By placing clips one after the other on tracks, you create a project.
Instead of repeating the process of placing clips, you can prepare in advance the clips that you will use in the project and place them on tracks at once. If the source data is not yet digitized, do a batch capture. If the source data is already digitized, store the clips in the Bin window and place them on tracks from the Bin window.

In the Batch Capture dialog, you can list up a group of clips, select the needed ones, and use them to create an clip.
  1. Play back the source data in the source monitor, and define the clips you will use by setting In and Out points.
