STUDIO
LIQUID
Select tab, open directory
In Studio, you first select the relevant tab and
then display the Open dialog box from Windows.
With Avid Liquid, you can fill any Rack with any
clips. You alone determine the structure.
Displaying audio files
Studio has a separate Album tab for audio files.
Avid Liquid has no such tab but you can, of
course, create Racks specifically for audio files as
described on the right.
Creating Racks
Clips or All tab:
Right-click in the left-hand area of the Project
Window to display the shortcut menu and select
New Rack.
Naturally, you can also use an existing Rack (see
“Importing objects” below).
Naming Racks
You can immediately name the newly created
Rack, or right-click an existing Rack and select
Rename.
Importing objects
Menu bar > File > Import > Media.
The possible formats are listed in the File Type list
box.
Now select the files you want to import. The clips
then appear in the currently selected (flashing)
Rack.
Linking, copying and moving
These are three types of import. Copy creates a
copy of the media file in Avid Liquid’s media
directory (recommended).
6 Importing Clips, Titles, Graphics and Stills
Avid Liquid lets you import clips in a variety of formats. You can use Racks to organize your Project:
Title Rack, Audio Rack, Sound Track Rack, Video Rack, etc.
