Use the Export EDL menu to save an EDL for any clips that you select in the clip library. When you save an EDL, you can use one of the following methods:
When you generate an EDL, you create an EDL from a clip in the clip library in any of the supported industry standard formats (such as CMX3600, Sony™ 9100, GVG). These files are made up of metadata only.
A clip may contain a number of audio tracks. However, this depends on the EDL format that you generate. When a format uses only two audio tracks, the other audio tracks are disabled.
In the process of outputting an EDL, you actually output the media used to build a clip to the clip library or to a VTR. This is useful for quickly dumping source clips onto a tape. You can also output an EDL in order to conform a program on another system to perform the final colour grading. In this case, after the colourist has completed work and created a new graded tape, you can recapture the graded material into a final colour-corrected clip using the output EDL.
