Multiple Clips and Groups
It is possible to group multiple Clips together by holding down [Shift] or [Ctrl]/[Command]
while selecting them. You can then save them as a "selection group" so that later you can
easily select all Clips in that Group with a single click. You can even nest Groups inside each
other. See Groups for more information.
Playing back and using effects
Playback in the Audio Montage works in much the same way as in the Audio File Workspace.
There are however some additional points to note:
Audio tracks are normally routed through the Master Section
This allows you to add global effects to the Audio Montage or use the Render function to
create a mixdown Audio File, separate Audio Files in the case of a multichannel Montage or
an intermediary Basic Audio CD. You can also choose to route the audio from a track to the
nearest track above for use with Clip effects that allow modulating audio inputs (such as the
Ducker plug-in). The routing is done using the "Route to" options on the Track context menu.
Effects can be added to Clips or Tracks
Each independent Clip and/or audio track in the Montage can be independently processed
by up totenVST effect plug-ins. Effects are configured either as Inserts, when all sound is
processed by the effect, or as Send effects. See Effects for more information.
Using markers in the montage
Markers work in much the same way as in the Audio File Workspace however there are some
additional functions available that are useful for working with Clips. You can for example, bind
a marker to a Clip so that it moves with the Clip. For more information use "What's this?" or
see "Using markers in the Audio Montage Workspace" in Markers for more details.
Mixing down – The Render function
The Render function in the Master Section allows you to "mix down" the whole Montage (or
sections of it) to a single Audio File, or to several files in case of a multichannel Montage. It
also allows you to render to a basic audio CD or CD image and cue sheet, or even a new
Audio Montage. This can be useful for example when you wish to "print" any effects to file.
The Render function can be used in many ways:
It's useful if you want to burn a CD from a CPU-intensive Montage, as it allows you to
first render all track and Clip effect processing to recreate a new montage and then
burn the CD in a second pass.
Surround channels can be rendered as multiple files, retaining the stereo/mono status
of the individual surround channels.
