Understanding MultiRez and Proxy Editing

MultiRez (a term derived from “multiple resolutions”) lets you create a master clip that is

associated with multiple media files of different resolutions. For example, you can use the Avid

Interplay Low-Res Encoder to simultaneously capture a single master clip that is associated with

both low-resolution and high-resolution media files. MultiRez also lets you capture an audio clip

with more than one sample rate.
