Re: [Avid-L2] Re: How do you stop Avid adding new audio tracks?

 

If you are just match framing so you can Find in Bin from the source monitor you can save a step. Hit Alt+Find in Bin from the timeline. It shows the shot under the play head on the highest activated track. No need to match frame. And if you find yourself using it a lot add the Alt modifier in the control panel to your Find in Bin shortcut. Saves you a keystroke then.

Thanks chaps. Thought there might be an easy answer that I had missed in my 20+ years of editing. Old dog, new tricks etc!


Why am I match framing? Really?

OK, so you have a shot in the timeline and you know there was another good shot nearby in the same clip. Match frame back to the clip and scroll around until you find it. Is that a good enough purpose. I probably do this a couple of hundred times a day. (Match Frame mapped to F3 Match back to Bin is Shift F3)

I normally group all my rushes clips into Sequences (GV's House, CA's Car etc.) and it would be great if Avid would first match frame to that Sequence and then to the clip. But hey ho!
