Overview of the Multitake Editor

You can think of the Multitake Editor as a simplified multitrack Timeline that is focused
entirely on the contents of a single multitake clip. In the Multitake Editor, you can audition
and choose which take will be used for each section of dialogue. The top row in the
Multitake Editor is the comp (or composite) track. This track represents a combination of
all of the edits that you make in the Multitake Editor. The other tracks represent individual
takes. You use the Blade tool to split the takes into regions. Use the Selection tool to
select the active take for each region. Use transition points to adjust the timing and to
create crossfades between the selected portions of takes.
