If a sequence clip is open in the Viewer, you can:

• Choose a filter from the Audio Filters submenu of the Effects menu. The filter is applied

to the clip in the Viewer.

• Drag a filter from the Effects tab of the Browser directly to the Viewer.

If you apply more than one filter to an audio clip, the filters are applied serially. In other
words, the first audio filter is applied, and then the resulting audio signal is fed through
the next audio filter, and so on.

If you apply multiple filters to a clip, the order in which they appear in the Filters tab for
that clip in the Viewer determines how the clip sounds. Although the initial order of filters
in the tab depends on when they were applied, you can change the order at any time.

include filters that have been applied to the clip. Instead of pasting the clip, you can paste
only that clip’s filters into other clips that you’ve selected. To do this, you use the Paste
Attributes command.
