Sync and adjust angles and clips in the Angle Editor
At any time, you can open multicam clips in the Angle Editor to adjust the synchronization and
the angle order, set the monitoring angle, or add or delete angles.
Note: When you open any multicam clip in the Angle Editor (whether from the Browser or the
Timeline) you are actually opening the parent multicam clip. Any changes you make in the
Angle Editor are propagated to all child clips of that multicam clip, in every project. For more
information, see
Create multicam clips in the Browser on page 331.
You can use the Angle Editor to edit the individual clips inside a multicam clip (similar to
how you can edit the contents of a compound clip). The many changes you can make in the
Angle Editor include basic edits and trimming as well as effects you would normally add in the
Timeline, such as color corrections and transitions.
You can copy and paste clips in the Angle Editor. Clips are pasted sequentially as overwrite edits,
and in the monitoring angle only.
Tip: Before you edit multicam clips in the Angle Editor, duplicate them in the Browser to
maintain clean backup copies.
You cannot cut and switch between angles in the Angle Editor. You also cannot connect clips,
solo clips, use the Precision Editor, perform ripple deletes, or use the Detach Audio and Break
Apart Clip Items commands.
