  • linking video and audio clips / deleting clips

    Posted by Andrew R. on September 26, 2006 at 6:04 pm

    Does anyone know of a way to link audio and video clips on the timeline? Meaning if I move the video clip, the audio clip would stay with it. Also how about a way to delete a clip without having to do it twice. It seems when I delete a clip it removes attributes of it first then the clip the second time. Using AVID Xpress Studio Pro on a pc.
    Any help or advice would be great.

    Thanks.

    Can’t think of an obvious way of keeping audio clips stuck to their corresponding video clips apart from the obvious, ie hilighting both the audio and video tracks. Sync liock may help you here though it can have adverse knock on effects.

    To delete a clip why not hit mark clip then lift or scissors. The need to double delete is essential so that you have the option of removing effects/automation etc without deleting the actual clip

    Thanks for the tip, I’m still getting used to AVID on a PC, coming from FCP on a Mac.
