Many thanks for your response. Yesterday I stumbled upon another way.

V4 wipe with composite mode Add
V4 Outgoing with Composite travel matte luma applied
V3 Matte
V2Incoming with Composite travel matte luma applied
V1 Matte

Bonkers but it worked. My client hired another editor today and when she said to him ” It’s working on FCP!” he said “Don’t worry, you can’t blame the editor.” It’s not a bad piece of kit it just a flawed buggy shit piece of software!

Love it!

My spelling is bad I will admit but what conversation are you having?

Hi Kevin

Thank you for responding to my post.

It certainly is a different mind set to an Avid. Normally the matte goes above the outgoing and above that another matte goes above the incoming but inverted (or visa versa).

I have managed to get the wipe to work using a combination of luma travel matte and Image Mask I almost get it to work but I have a black & white layer.

It’s doing my head in. The wipe needs to exit one image and bring in another so the matte needs to be used above each image surely?

Still all at sea so thanks again in advance.

Adrian

This bit I have figured out, neat effects. But which do I apply to what.

V5 Fill travel matte alpha
V4 Matte travel matte luma
V3 Incoming
V2 Matte with travel matte luma
V1 outgoing

This is the order of an avid setup but it isn’t working here and has blown my brains.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Adrian
