Applying an audio or video effect to multiple clips at once

Hi
Im an AVID user trying to transfer my skills onto FCP.
On AVID, to apply an audio or video mix to a number of cuts at once, you would mark an in point and an out point which encompasses the cuts you want to apply the effect to, then select "apply transition in to out"
Is there a FCP equivalent of this function or is it only possible to apply one effect at a time?
Thanks in advance.

Select the clips and use Modify>Levels. Or the keyboard Control-brackets to go up and down.
For your transition issue you need to do this

  • How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

    How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

    or... you can command click to select all the clips you want to apply the effect to, then double click the effect in the Effects browser. (PS - you can't simply drag and drop an effect on multiple clip selections, the effect will only be applied to the clip you drop it on -- but double clicking the effect will apply it to all selected clips at once.)

  • Best way to apply same effect to multiple clips?

    I have a bunch of short clips in the timeline. I want them all to end with a "fade to black" and I want the audio to fade to 0 db. I know how to do this by applying the "fade to black" and then applying 1/2 a crossfade 0db. Is there a way to apply these two effects to several clips at once? How do I apply the audio and video effects together to a single clip with one move?

    create the effect using the opacity and volume overlays on one clip in the timeline, then right-click and copy. Select (ie highlight) the other clips you want, right-click any of them and choose 'paste attributes'. From the pop up you'll want to check the relevant options, opacity and audio levels, and that's it.

  • How to apply video effects across several clips

    Does anyone know how to apply a video effect across several clips in a sequence, as opposed to doing each clip individually?

    Nest the sequence and apply the effect to the nested sequence.
    You will find links to many free tutorials in the
    Premiere Pro Wiki that will quickly
    show you how things are done in PPro.

  • Applying one video filter to multiple clips

    How do I apply just one video filter to multiple clips on a timeline in FCP7? "Copy and paste attributes" does not give me the control to select just one filter to apply, for example there is a color corrector and sharpen filter in the copied clip and all I want to paste is sharpen.

    Double click on a clip on the timeline that has the sharpness filter with the settings you want to apply to additional clips.
    When that clip has loaded to the viewer, click on the filters tab. You will see a list of all the filters you have applied.
    Now, on the timeline, select all the clips you want to apply that filter to (you can hold down the Command key while clicking on the clips to select multiple clips).
    Once the destination clips are selected, move your cursor to the Viewer window Filters tab display, and click down on the Sharpness filter and drag it to any one of the selected clips on the timeline.
    It will be applied to all clips.

  • How do you apply an EQ filter to multiple clips at once?

    i need to EQ a VO and rather than apply the filter to each clip serparately, is there a way to apply one filter to multiple clips at once?
    thanks
    carl

    apply your eq effect to one of the clips and adjust settings as required, then select every other clip that you want to apply this eq to, and then drag and drop the effect (from the viewer) onto one of those selected clips ... it will apply to all those selected.
    another way, if its the only effect on the clip, would be to apply and adjust the effect, select the clip with the applied effect and press cmd-c to copy, then select all the other clips you want to add the eq to and press opt-v to paste attributes ... in the window select audio filters (only)

  • More than one video effect for same clip?

    Is it possible to apply more than one video effect to the same clip? I know this could be done in previous versions of iMovie, but I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this task in '09!!
    Thanks!

    In general, no, you cannot do two video effects at the same time.
    However, black and white is a special case, because you can achieve this using Video Adjustments.
    You can select Aged Film and then adjust to Black and White in Video Adjustments.
    Try setting the Saturation slider all the way to the left (0%)
    Then, move the Contrast slider to the right until it is around 50%.

  • How to change effects on multiple clips

    Is there a way to change and/or adjust effects/filters on multiple clips at once?  I have added an effect on a scene and I want to adjust the overall level to all the clips, i.e. the amount of the effect applied.
    I highlighted all the clips and made the adjustment in the Inspector, but it only made the adjustment to one single clip even though I selected all.  I REALLY do not want to sit and adjust each one seperately.
    Anyone with an answer?  Thanks

    I am not adding an effect. I am adjusting ONE single effect within multiple clips that have multiple effects. if I just copy and paste it copies ALL the effects, which I do not want, because I have different effects for different clips. i.e. different color schemes etc.
    In otherw ords, I wnat to be able to EDIT effects in multiple clips. E.G, I have added color correction, "looks" filter, etc to multiple clips.  I just want to change ONE of those effects in multiple clips without disturbing the rest of the effects in those clips.

  • Apple custom effect to multiple clips

    Just received an extremely helpful type a bit ago and I'm hoping to capture lighting in a bottle twice.
    I've done multiple Google searches on the subject but always came up empty. I'm looking to apply a custom effect to multiple clips at the same time (a link to a photo example is at the bottom of this post). Does anyone know a way of accomplishing this feat? It would increase my productivity ten-fold!
    Thanks

    Apply all the effects you want to one image in the timeline.
    Select that image, right click and select COPY.
    Now, select ALL the other images in the sequence, right click and select PASTE ATTRIBUTES then select the check boxes that apply to the effects you wish to transfer.

  • Add effects to multiple clips

    Hello
    I'm wanting to add effects to multiple clips (more specifically sharpen and color correction)
    I select all the clips and drag into the viewer, but the effects only apply to the first clip. How can I easily have the effects apply to more than one or all clips in the timeline.
    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Here's how you do it:
    1. Apply the effects to one clip.
    2. Copy the clip
    3. Select all of the other clips you want to apply the same effects to
    4. Go +Edit > Paste Attributes.+ (I believe the command is Option-V)
    5. Check the filters box.
    6. Click OK.
    Hope this helped,

  • Disable Effects across multiple Clips

    Hello. I was wondering if there was a way to disable/enable effects across multiple clips. I have done all the color correction/grading and have decided to cut another version. Unfortunately the effects I have added all need to be rendered. I want to turn off the effects do the edit, and turn them back on after I am complete. Is this possible? Thanks, Jeremy

    Hi -
    Here is a solution I use, but it has one weird step in it that I am not sure is just a quirk of my system . . .
    Open the Sequence Settings.
    Click on the Render Control Tab.
    Uncheck the Render & Playback - Filters CheckBox
    Click OK.
    Now, on my system, in order to not display the CC filters I've applied I have to do these little extra steps:
    Switch the RT playback control to Safe RT, then back to Unlimited RT.
    Now the sequence plays without displaying the filters.
    To restore the effect of the filters, you reverse the steps-
    Open the Sequence Tab.
    Click on the Render Tab.
    Check the Render & Playback - Filters Checkbox, then click OK.
    and again, don't know if this just my system but -
    Switch the RT playback control to Safe RT, then back to Unlimited RT.
    You'll see your Color Correction again, and it will need to be rendered.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I undo the Ken Burns effect for all clips at once (instead of pulling up each clip individually)?

    Can I undo the Ken Burns effect for all clips at once in iMovie (instead of pulling up each clip individually)?

    Yes, you can select multiple clips then Adjust, Crop, click on "Fit".

  • Applying effects to multiple clips or an entire sequence on a separate video track

    I'm looking for an easy way to apply effects on a separate video track.  In AVID I would just drag and drop the effect preset onto a blank layer.  Or if I wanted the clip to affect just a few clips, I would add two edits (similar to razor blade) on a separate video track and drag the effect preset between those edit points.  Is there a way to do this in Premiere Pro?  Running CS 5.0.4.  Thanks for the help!

    Well, depending on what you want to do, you might actually be able to use a clip instance of one sort or another.
    One option is Transparent Video (File > New > Transparent Video); by itself, Trans. Video doesn't do anything, but some effects can be applied to it and will generate an output. This doesn't work with all effects, so you'll have to experiment. Check here for more: Create a transparent video clip
    Another option would be to use a Color Matte (File > New > Color Matte) or Black Video (File > New > Black Video) clip. These do have an effect by themselves, so you could apply any effect you wanted to them, and then possibly use a Blending Mode to apply it. Black Video is common for this purpose, with something like the Add mode. Again, not perfect, but it will depend on the effect you're trying to achieve.
    Unfortunately, we don't have anything like AE's adjustment layers in Premiere Pro. That would solve your problem, quickly.

  • How can I/Is there a way to: apply a preset effect to multiple clips?

    I will be editing a music video from this weekend in Premiere Pro CS4, is there a way I can paste a custom preset to multiple clips (selecting hundreds) without clicking each one and pasting/dragging?
    If this can be done it's going to save me hours and hours of work!
    If I try at the moment by CTRL clicking a few clips is only pastes/drags into 1 of the clips, not all of them!
    any help would be appreciated

    Yes, see the section
    Copy and paste clip effects and
    Apply effects to clips in the Premiere Pro Help.

  • Applying Effect to Multiple Clips?

    Hi,
    Is there a way within Final Cut Express to apply a single effect such as Chroma Keyer to multiple clips? I've seen this done with Final Cut Pro but can't seem to replicate it in FCE.
    Thanks for your help.

    You do it exactly the same way you could do it in FCP. Drag the filter onto multiple selected clips, or copy a clip with the filter and use the paste attributes function.
