Editing
 
 
 

The Editing section explains how to perform various editing functions in Smoke, from making the most basic cuts and splices, creating transitions such as dissolves and wipes, to creating composites through vertical editing.

Basic editing concepts used in Smoke are described, as are some editing interface elements, and instructions for using tools that will come in handy during the editing process.

You can perform editing operations on the EditDesk, on the record timeline, and on the timeline in Batch.

The Editing section begins with Editing Essentials.

Using soft effects, you can create many compositing effects directly on the timeline and view the result without processing. See Soft Effects.

When working with audio, you can perform many of the same editing operations that you use to edit video, such as cutting, trimming, and adding dissolves. A comprehensive set of audio effects tools is available in the timeline, and AudioDesk for mixing and mastering your audio. See Audio.
