Understanding Layers

Layers are essential for organizing and displaying multiple media elements in your composition. Layers can be set to send content to specific screens.
  • Layer Functionality: Each layer can hold one piece of media or effect at a time. Multiple layers are needed to play multiple files simultaneously.

Blend Modes

Blend modes determine how layers interact visually. Basic Blend Modes are modes like add and alpha. They are used for putting text over backgrounds or other simple tasks like that. Try various modes to make unique visual effects.

Layer Controls in the UI

Managing layers effectively requires understanding the controls available in the UI.
  • Targeting Layers: Click a layer to target it in the layer pane for adjustments.
  • Auto Sizing Options: Layers can auto-scale media to fit the layer dimensions.
  • Visibility and Solo Options: Use 'B' to skip a layer briefly. Use 'Solo' to isolate it. Use the 'X' button to clear the layer.
  • Sliders: Control video and audio levels directly from the layer controls.

Transport and Transition Controls

Transport and transition settings are crucial for smooth playback and transitions.
  • Access quick transport options for layers. But, consider hiding them to avoid accidents. This is especially true for the speed slider.
  • These controls set crossfade times for transitions between clips. Once set, hide these controls to prevent unintentional adjustments.
