Adding Video Sources to Aurora Edit
Before using footage from a particular source, you need to add the source to the
Aurora Edit source list. Aurora Edit pre-installs two sources for you — a video
source and a clip source:
• The video source, usually a tape deck, allows you to record footage directly
into the Timeline or Bin.
• The clip source allows you to edit a clip as a Timeline source directly in the
Bin, which is useful for large clips so you don’t have to go back and forth
from a tape deck. You only need one clip source; you don’t have to create a
new clip source for each clip you want to use.
