In to Out Highlighting in the Timeline

All stereo tracks in the Timeline split into two separate mono tracks, with the new mono
tracks added below each original stereo track. . A copy of your original sequence is saved to
your bin as [sequence_name].Copy.[number].
Backtiming Edits
Backtiming an edit is effectively the reverse of the process you normally use for marking
footage: instead of marking from the In points forward, you mark according to the Out points.
For example, you might have a track of audio (music or voice) that ends at a specific point, and
you want to synchronize a video clip to end on a particular clip. You can backtime the edit to
match the end points of the tracks.
Consider the following:
• Your Avid editing application needs only three marks to perform a backtimed edit. The In
and Out points set on the record side always take precedence.
• If you do not mark an In point in the sequence, your Avid editing application uses the In
point and Out point in the source clip (if both are marked) to determine the In point in the
sequence. If you do not set both marks in the source clip, the system uses the position
indicator as the In point.
• If you do not mark an Out point in the clip and an Out point in the sequence, your Avid
editing application uses the end of the source clip as the Out point.
• If you mark Out points in both the Source monitor and in the Record monitor, your Avid
editing application uses the Out point on the record side.
To backtime an edit:
1. Mark In and Out points in the sequence where you want the edit to start and end.
2. Select the appropriate tracks.
3. Load the source clip into the Source monitor.
4. Mark an Out point for the source clip to synchronize to the Out point in the sequence.
5. Click the Overwrite button.
The source material is added to the sequence, with the synchronized ending.
In to Out Highlighting in the Timeline
When you mark a sequence with In to Out points, the system indicates the selection by
highlighting the marked region on selected tracks in the Timeline.
