Chapter 7 Using the Multitake Editor 257
Reordering Takes
You can vertically rearrange the order of takes in a multitake clip.
To rearrange the order of takes in a multitake clip:
1 Click the track header of the take you want to move.
2 Drag the take vertically to a new position in the list.
Example: A Multitake Editing Workflow
The following example demonstrates how you might create a comp from multiple
takes of an ADR session using the Multitake Editor. In this case, there are four takes of
the same line: “Would you like to try a sample of our organic Peruvian blend?”
To edit multiple takes of a line of dialogue using the Multitake Editor:
1 Select the multitake clip in the Timeline.
2 Control-click the ruler at the top of the multitrack Timeline, then choose Cycle Region
from the shortcut menu and Create Cycle Region from Selection from the submenu (or
press Shift-A).
3 Click the Multitake Editor tab to open it.
The comp track and, in this example, four take tracks, appear in the Multitake Editor.
4 Click the Solo button on the Take 1 track and click the Play button to listen to the first take.
Take 1 plays.
5 Repeat this playback for each take to familiarize yourself with how they sound.
6 Optionally, you can choose to add a take from the original sync-sound production audio
to use a guide track. (See “
Slipping Take Regions ” on page 255 for more information.)
7 When you are ready to make the first cut, click the Blade tool in the upper-left corner of
the Multitake Editor (or press B).
In this example, Take 3 contains the best version of the first few words (“Would you
like to...”).
Drag a take track header
to a new position in the
list.
A blue bar indicates
where the take track will
be positioned.
