Performing a Video Mixdown
Video mixdown allows you to combine several tracks into a new master clip.
You can use video mixdown after you have finished building your sequence and want to make it into one piece (for example, a standard opening to a program). It can be useful for a complex sequence you need to use repeatedly or if you want to add a motion effect to an entire sequence.
Video mixdown is similar to the Collapse feature; the difference is the end result.
 | |
With the Collapse feature, you collapse the tracks into a Submaster
effect. After you collapse the tracks, you are still able to step in to the
Submaster and work on the individual elements.
|
| |
With video mixdown, your end result is a new master clip made up of
all the tracks you built on different layers. Those tracks become one
clip; you cannot step into the sequence or separate the tracks to work
on them.
|

| 1. | |
Select the Record Track Monitor button in the Track Selector panel for
the highest track you want to include in the video mixdown.
|
| 2. | |
Mark an IN point and an OUT point around the area to mix down.
|
| 3. | |
Select Clip > Video Mixdown.
|
| 4. | |
Select a target bin and a target drive for storing the new master clip,
and then click OK.
