Selecting Multiple Clips from Same Angle in Multicam Project

I edit motor sport events using up to 8 camera angles. Once I have edited the multicam I will generally reduce the overall audio level of the entire multicam edit. Invariably certain camera positions will have a higher audio level than others. In FCP 7 I would adjust the audio of one such clip angle, copy the clip, then simply cmd+f and input the name of the angle clips I want to adjust, then paste attributes and select audio as the attribute I want to adjust.
In FCP X I cannot find a way of doing this..... It appears I have to scroll along the timeline and cmd select each clip.... which is a nonsense. I should be able to select every clip of one particular angle. Am I missing something? This should be really easy to select every clip from one particular angle, but I have yet to find a way to do it and it is vital I can do this to save time. Nothing in the help files.

You can't select all the individual clips in the multicam edit.... All of the clips in the multicam are titled the same way...." Multicam xxxxxx". If they appeared as Angle 1, Angle 2, Angle 3 etc. You could select the individual angles as I need to do, but they are not listed that way.
To adjust the audio in the angle editor so that the audio from each camera was the same maximum db level, I would need to be able to "normalise" the audio from each angle to, for example -18db. In FCP X they have removed the normalise audio feature, which is such a nuisance As I used that a lot in FCP 7 to get audio to max at the required level. I can't adjust the audio in one angle until I have them edited side by side and can see the difference in db between them.
Any other ideas?

  • Selecting multiple clips in Imovie for Iphone for plus Ipad 2?

    hi guys first post on these forums i hope you can help.
    I recently downloaded imovie from the app store for my iphone 4 and so far have been really impressed with it. However there is one problem i'm having. I would like to select multiple clips from my camera roll without having to keep going back into the media section and having to scroll down to find the clips for everyone i want to add. Is there a way of selecting multiple clips? any help appreciated!

    There is a way to load multiple video clips at once on iMovie's timeline on the iPad.
    I have been able to load multiple video clips into my iPad's iMovie's timeline at the same time, but this process requires the combined use of iMovie and iPhoto and won't work if you have iOS 8 running on your iPad.
    This is the way I do it.  You create an iMovie project (Movie) on your iPad.  iMovie will show the video clips that you can load to the timeline, but, as you have probably already found out, you can't load more than one clip at a time in iMovie's timeline.  My videos have sometimes 100-200 clips, so loading them into the timeline one-by-one is a very long and tedious process. I do this instead:
    (1)  I go to iMovie and load the first clip on the timeline using iMovie. (This needs to be done to avoid iPhoto importing its background music to your video clips in iMovie.)
    (2) Then I get out of iMovie and go into iPhoto.  iPhoto shows you all the photos, but more importantly also all the videos in your Camera Roll.
    (3) In iPhoto, I select the next video in the Camera Roll (the one right after the clip that I already placed on iMovie's timeline).
    (4) Next, I hit the icon at the top of iPhoto that takes you to the "Share" section (the icon is a square box with an arrow pointing to the top).  This will open a dialogue box that has a section there for "Apps" and you will see the iMovie icon.
    (5) Select the iMovie icon, it will open a dialoge box that reads at the bottom: "Choose Photos...".
    (6) Select "Choose Photos..."
    (7) Now you can select up to 15 video clips in iPhoto to load into iMovie's timeline.  You select each video by tapping it, it becomes encased in a white square and will show a check mark.
    (8) After selecting up to 15 video clips, hit "Next" in the top right corner, you will be taken to iMovie.
    (9) In iMovie, you will be asked to select the project into which the clips are to be placed.  Select the project and the clips will all be loaded at once into iMovie's timeline.
    Repeat the process again each time to load more clips; the process will place each new group of clips on iMovie's timeline right after the previously loaded clips.  When you return to iPhoto, the clips that appear encased with a heavy white border are the ones that have already been placed in the timeline for iMovie; select the next uncased clip and 14 more and load them into iMovie in the same way as described before.
    One word of caution:  This process only works using iMovie and iPhoto together.  iPhoto does not work with iOS 8!  (Thank you, Apple!)  That's why I don't have iOS 8 on my iPad, so, the process works fine.  I hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • How do I select multiple clips in a timeline in the reverse direction, e.g. middle to front?

    I know how to click "a" and select clips in the timeline looking forward, but how do we select multiple clips from a middle point to the front of the timeline?  I don't want to be lassoing -- is there some other way?

    Hi denniscallan,
    Please check the track selection tool. Refer to the link below for more information about the tools section.

  • How do you select/move multiple clips from one timeline to another?

    Has to do with combining multiple edls from Avid - required due to an issue with duplicate reel names in the original Arri footage. I can move them one at a time, but it is very tedious. Is there a way to select multiple clips and move them together?

    Actually discovered the magic of the shift key.
    IRCP Beauty doesn't recognize multiple timelines in a session, so first you have to at least get the footage on multiple tracks in the same timeline. Shift + drag on the track will allow you to move it to another timeline. Also Shift + drag on the center of the first clip in a sequence will slide the entire sequence down - which is how timelines end up getthing offset all the time. Also, if there are multiple tracks in a timeline and some are locked and some aren't, Shift + drag on a clip will slide ALL UNLOCKED tracks in the timeline.
    Finally, Shift + click on either in or out marker moves both points up or down the timeline.

  • Is it possible to select multiple clips and create a sequence from each individually?

    Is it possible to select multiple clips and create a sequence from each individually?  If you select multiple clips and select "New Sequence from Clip" it puts all of the clips into one sequence.  Is there an easy way to quickly perform this on multiple selected clips separately? 

    So now I *have* used Butler with PPro, and it works very well, here's an idea of how to do it:
    Import folder of clips
    Ensure first clip selected in bin and sorted by Media Type
    Most of these commands need shortcuts assigning - mine listed below
    Macro:
    To create seq from selected clip:
      ‘New seq from clip’ (Shift+CMD+N)
    To duplicate this seq:
      ‘Reveal Sequence in project’ (Shift+F) - not strictly necessary as it will already be selected
      ‘Window | Project’ (CMD+9)
      ‘Edit | Duplicate’ (Shift+CMD+/)
    To rename the duplicate
      ‘Enter’
      Various keystrokes to rename as required
      ‘Enter’ - to make name stick
      ‘Shift+Enter’ - to reselect that sequence
      ‘Esc’ - to get out of editing name
    To change resolution of duplicate:
      ‘Sequence Settings’ (CMD+5)
      ‘Tab’ x 3 (to get to H Frame Size)
      ‘xxxx’ (to enter frame width)
      ‘Tab’ x 1 (to get to V Frame Size)
      ‘yyyy’ (to enter frame height
      ‘Enter’ x 2 as prompt will say previews will have to be deleted
    To then find next clip ready for macro to run again:
      ‘Open in Timeline’ (Shift+CMD+O)
      ‘Match Frame’ (Shift+Spacebar)
      ‘Reveal in Project’ (Shift+CMD+F)
      ‘Window | Project’ (CMD+9)
      ‘Down Arrow’ - to select next clip
    I tried it with Butler (manytricks.com - free trial, $20 to buy) and it worked a treat, takes about 3 secs per clip
    AHK (for windows) is at autohotkeys.com and is free.
    You could start making multiple macros - that would enable you to do grade / resize in middle of duplication - and then export etc, but I figure you can figure that out ;-)

  • Is there a way to select multiple clips in FCP 7 and make all of them stereo pair at the same time?

    I know,....  I'm still using FCP 7,  but since there are no forums for this aaplication anymore,  I figured I ask it here.
    I want to select multiple clips on the timeline and make them all stereo pair.  I pressed "Option L", but that does not work.  Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Premiere CC Crashes When Selecting Multiple Clips

    This project was already derailed by multicam, now that I've got my assembly edit ready to go, I've discovered a new show-stopper:  Premiere Pro CC crashes when I select multiple clips on the timeline.  I can't select more than 3 clips at a time, or the entire program comes crashing to it's knees.  Anyone else experiencing something like this?  Can anyone else reproduce this behavior? 
    Here's a video of the experience:
    http://youtu.be/DPOUinOSzDE
    Any word on an update?
    ASUS G75VX
    Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit
    GTX 670MX, 3GB GDDR5
    16GB RAM

    Progress.  I've been able to isolate the problem.  On my timeline I have some "regular" clips and some "merged" clips.  Regular clips are from either source: a Canon 7D (MP4 / MOV) or a Canon VIXIA HF G20 (AVCHD).  The Merged clips are only from the Canon 7D only (for video) and an audio recorder (MP3 at 320kbps).  The 7D footage is 1080/24p.  The VIXIA also shoots in 24p.
    Since "Merge Clips" sync on audio is not working for me, I've employed my former CS6 workflow:
    1. Sync all of the video and audio clips through PluralEyes 3 resulting in a preliminary sequence, "Clips_to_be_merged_sequence".
    2. I work my way through each of the clips, adjusting the audio track(s) for variances in drift between the on camera sound and the audio recorder.  I do this enabling "Audio Time Units", rather than video frames, so I can get extremely acurate.
    3. When I have a timeline full of nicely syncronized audio/video pairs, I merge clips, one painstaking clip at a time (of course I set up a keyboard shortcut for this).  For the merge, I "sync on In points".
    4. The merged clip is added to my project panel.
    5. Now, when it comes time to choose my sound bite selects, I load the merged clip into the Source panel and mark my Ins and Outs. 
    6. Time to create a subclip, of course with the new SOFT handles. (I'VE BEEN WANTING SOFT HANDLES FOR A LONG TIME!!!)
    7. The subclip appears to be properly created and placed into the Project panel.  It even shows the correct duration (i.e. 14 seconds)
    8.  When I drag that subclip onto the timeline it drags the entire length of the parent clip, without in or out points (not just the 14 second subclip).
    9.  I undo and decide to go back through the original clips again; mark ins and outs and simply drop to the timeline (either Insert or Overwrite).
    So in the end, I'm using sections of the Merged clip, but I'm not using Subclips of the Merged clips (because that doesn't work).
    Now, what's happening, though I didn't know it when I recorded the video above, is that Premiere is crashing any time I select both "regular" footage and "merged" footage.
    So, two bugs here:
    1. Can't use Subclips that are derived from Merged clips in ANY timeline.  Once dragged to the timeline it expands to the full duration of the original clip.
    2. Can't select both "regular" and "merged" clips at the same time on the timeline.
    JStrawn (staff) was kind enough to offer to take a look at some small sample files.  But my interview clips are very long, and I'm concerned that if I export them, to make them shorter, they may not actually exibit the problems I'm having on the original clips.
    Anyone else using this type of "Merge Clip" workflow that could reproduce either the subclip-from-merged-clip bug or the mixed-selection crash given the steps above?

  • Selecting multiple clips sealed off by other clips

    Hi,
    Im trying to figure out a way to select multiple clips in a track which is sealed off on all sides by other clips, so I can't just click and drag.
    I want to select the middle clips, without Ctrl+Click on all of the necessary ones.

    Click and Drag  Lasso does the same thing without having to Select a Tool.
    Locking and unlocking is 2 or 3 clicks.  About 2 seconds. You save one click  from not having to select a special tool to do this.
    How fast do you want to be able to do this and what will you do with the time you save?

  • Selecting multiple values from a search help

    Hi Experts
    Anyone knows if it is possible to select multiple values from a search help?
    Thanks
    Gaurav

    Hi,
    You cannot select mutiple values from search help as it is linked to inputfield and hence it will accept single value only. But at the same time, you may able to pass row of values to different inputfields.

  • How to select multiple values from the Parameters in the concurrent program

    How to select multiple values from the Parameters defined in the concurrent program...and i believe multiple selection is not a direct feature of EBS, but is there any workaround solution to acheive mulitple selection?

    I think there's no way to do that using standard feature.
    Some workaround I use :
    1. If the number of selections are fixed, you could use multiple parameters for the same valueset. For example :
    Selection1 : <choose first selection>
    Selection2: <choose 2nd selection>
    ..etc.
    If you don't use it then leave it empty.
    2. Use text varchar valueset and enter it manually and separate by comma (or other value) , eg : selection1,selection2,selection3....etc.

  • Exporting multiple clips from one sequence as separate files.

    Hello fellow editors!
    I have about 100+ video files that I want to cut into shorter clips, edit a bit and then export in a Final Cut friendly format (currently they are AVCHD mts files) to send it to my friend, who is putting the whole movie together.
    I dont want to use Final Cut for this ( I cannot, I have a windows machine) and I was hoping to work with premier CC and media encoder CC.
    There is a way of putting all clips in one sequence and then nesting each one, then you can send them to Encoder CC and it will render them as separate files - thats is just not very productive, nesting clips one by one and it takes forever for Encoder to import sequences.         
    I was wondering if there is a better workflow? I heard that Final Cut has shortcuts to do this very easily, you just click on all those clips in sequence and "batch export" them, which puts them in some place as separate, already cut files.?
    Anything? I love premier, let my feelings be justified!)

    Kevin Monahan ...
    Lucid George is right ... select one trimmed clip, File->Export->Media, you can choose whether in-out or entire clip.
    Select MORE than one clip, you get a completely different export box ...
    These two selections were "exported" from that bin created by dragging the trimmed clips from the timeline to a new bin ... I don't know what else one is supposed to do. You can't even select multiples clips and batch sub-clipping, which would at least cut the steps down.

  • How to select multiple clips???

    I am a very avid iMovie user and now this new version has me so confused. I have the basics down, but I can't figure out how to select all clips and dump them into the "timeline" area. I can select them one at a time and place them in the assembly area but that takes forever on a one hour soccer game. Anyone figure out how to select multiple clips or all clips at once?
    Thanks ahead of time.

    Weird seeing this question today after I dealt with this yesterday. I did a movie yesterday that was multiple clips. I was able to select all clips at once and drag the entire thing up to the top window. I just tried to do the same thing again after reading this question and for the life of me, it will no longer allow me to click and drag to select them all. I wonder if this has something to do with the fact that all 10 or so clips I was able to highlight before, were all parts of the same clip when filmed (they were split into individual segments when imported). When I try to combine two clips that are not filmed sequentially, it will no longer allow it. The help menu says nothing about this. All it says is you need to click on the first clip and hold the mouse down and drag it to the end and it will select all. That is not working.

  • Can I somehow let the user select multiple images from device?

    Is there any way to let the user select multiple images from the device media gallery?
    The CameraRoll only selects one image. And the FileRefernceList doesn't show thumbnails (so you have no idea what you are selecting).
    Is there a way, or maybe some sort of workaround, for this? Is there a way to maybe "read" the users gallery on the SD-card and output your own gallery that the user can select from?
    I'm developing towards both Android and iOS so cross-plattform is a must.
    Thank you guys

    +1 to this question. I'm looking to do the same thing but haven't had any luck yet.

  • Select Multiple Tracks from Library

    When I am Rippinga CD to My Library, I can click on "Edit", right click and click on "Get Info.", and modify the "Genre".
    When I open a CD from the Library, and click on "Edit", I can't "Select All", and "Get Info", I can't seem to change the Database.
    Is there a way to select multiple tracks from the Library, and change the data?

    It should be the same way you select multiple items in just about every application. Select any item. Hold SHIFT and click another item to select that and all between it and the original. Hold CTRL to toggle the selection of individual items, adding or removing them from the selection.

  • How can I select multiple clips in the event browser?

    I can't seem to figure out how to do something that should be pretty simple. I want to select multiple clips in the event browser that aren't next to each other. Right now it's only letting me select the two clips with every other clip in between. Is there a keyboard function that will allow me to deselect the clips in between while leaving the two on the outside selected? In Apple's finder you can do this with files by holding down shift-command while clicking on the ones you want. Or is there away to rearrange clips in the event browswer?
    I'd like to be able to create a multicam clip, but there is always going to be other media in between the clips I want to combine, so how can I select only the clips I want?
    Thanks!

    Holding the Command key should let you select non-contiguous items, just as in the Finder.
