Navigating Batch Setups

Batch FX supports nesting of BFX levels. When you create a Batch FX, you can be in any nested BFX level. The BFX View provides an overview of the source clips and different levels of Batch FX applied to a segment, allowing for quick access to any Batch setup.

With the BFX View, you do not have to remember at which level a Batch FX is nested. You have access to all nested levels relative to the main Batch timeline directly from the BFX View schematic. If you create new setups or add clips to a setup, the BFX View automatically updates to reflect these changes. To help keep track of your work, you can rename setups and source clips within the BFX View.

The BFX View is reset if you process a BFX segment through a desktop module.

You can also match any source clip used in a BFX segment from the BFX View without having to go to the actual Batch FX setup.

To navigate Batch setups:

1. Select a BFX segment on the timeline and click BFX View.

   
   

   The BFX View displays a schematic of the Batch FX and clips belonging to the BFX segment. Each Batch setup is represented by a Batch FX icon. Yellow Batch FX letters represent the current setup. An orange border around the icon represents the selected setup or clip.

   An icon with a red border represents a record clip, which may contain multiple soft edits and multiple layers. An icon with a green border represents a source clip.

   NoteBatch FX in containers are grayed out because you cannot access them through the BFX View.
2. To access the setup of a Batch FX, do one of the following:
   • Double-click a Batch FX icon.
   NoteIf the BFX View is crowded, click the minus sign (-) to collapse one of the BFX levels. You can also Ctrl+swipe the bottom of the screen to enlarge the BFX View.
   • Select the Batch FX icon and then click Edit Batch FX.

   The Batch setup appears.

3. When you have finished making changes, click EXIT BFX (n) to return to the previous BFX level, or select EXIT Batch.

   The BFX View displays any new setups or source clips.

To rename a Batch setup or source clip in the BFX View:

1. Select a Batch FX icon or source clip in the BFX View.
2. Enter a name in the BFX Name field.

   
   

To locate a clip in the BFX View from the schematic:

1. Alt+click the clip in the schematic.

   An orange border appears around the corresponding clip in the BFX View.

   NoteTo display the BFX Name field of the clip in the BFX View, click the clip inside the BFX View.
