The Batch module is made up of a schematic where you assemble a process tree, bins where you select the nodes for your process tree, multiple viewports for viewing changes in-context, and various sets of controls for performing Batch FX operations on clips and nodes.

You access Batch from the EditDesk record timeline. You can bring a source into a BFX level, leaving its soft effects on the EditDesk record timeline, by clicking Pre. Or, you can bring in sources after they were modified with soft effects by clicking Post. See Creating Batch FX.
