On the left of the timeline is a region known as the patchbay. The patchbay enables features specific to each track as described next.
+
\begin{description}
\item[Textbox] for naming the track. The default names will usually be Video \#, Audio \#, or Mixer \# if using the multi-camera/mixer operations. A \# will be designated for subsequent tracks as in 1, 2, 3 and so on.
\item[Expander] which is a down arrow on the right side, is for viewing more options on the patchbay and for viewing the effects represented on the track. You can just click on the expander to expand or collapse the patchbay and the track. If it is pointing sideways, the track is collapsed. If it is pointing down, the track is expanded. Existing effects appear below the media for the track.

\noindent Below the textbox name are several toggles referred to as \textit{attributes} for different features (currently there are 5 as shown in figure~\ref{fig:patchbay01}). If the toggle button is shadowed by a color, the feature is enabled . If the toggle is the background color of most of the window, it is disabled. Click
on the toggle to enable/disable the feature.

Several mouse operations speed up the configuration of several tracks at a time. Click on an attribute and drag the cursor across adjacent tracks to copy the same attribute to those tracks. Hold down Shift while clicking a track's attribute to enable the attribute in the current track and toggle the attribute in all the other tracks. Or you can:
\begin{description}
\item[Play Track] determines whether the track is rendered or not. If it is off, the track is not rendered. For example if you turn it off in all the video tracks, the rendered media file will have only audio tracks. If the track is chained to any other tracks by a shared track effect, the other tracks perform all the effects in this shared track, regardless of play status of the shared track that in this particular case affects the media output but not fade and effects.
\item[Arm Track] determines whether the track is armed or not. Only the armed tracks are affected by editing operations. Make sure you have enough armed destination tracks when you paste or splice material or some tracks in the material will get left out. In addition to restricting editing operations, the armed tracks in combination with the active region determine where material is inserted when loading files. If the files are loaded with one of the insertion strategies which do not delete the existing project, the armed tracks will be used as destination tracks.
+\end{description}
+
+\begin{description}
\item[Gang Fader] cause the fader to track the movement of whatever other fader you are adjusting by dragging either the fader or the curve on the track. It doesn't affect the editing made with menu controls. A fader is only ganged if the arm track is also on. This is often used to adjust audio levels on all the tracks simultaneously. Gang also causes Nudge parameters to synchronize across all the ganged tracks.
\item[Draw Media] determines if picons or waveforms are drawn on the asset in the track. You may want to disable this if you know that the media/format takes a long time to draw on the timeline. By default it is set to on in order to see picons on the timeline.
\item[Don’t send to output] , more commonly called \textit{mute}, causes the output to be thrown away once the track is completely rendered. This happens whether or not \textit{Play track} is on. For example if you mute all the video tracks, the rendered media file will have a blank video track. Mute track is represented on the timeline with a line that has the default color of pink/orange. Use the pulldown View $\rightarrow$ Mute to have the line displayed. It is a keyframable attribute, but Mute track keyframing is a toggle and it has only the two values of on or off. If a track is part of a shared track effect, the output of the track with the shared track effect is overlaid on the final output even though it is routed back to another track (the shared track). Mute track is used to keep the track with the shared track effect from overlapping the output of the source track (the shared track) where the shared track effect is not present.
\item[Fader slider] fade values are represented on the timeline with a pink curve that is keyframable. All tracks have a fader, but the units of each fader depend on whether it is audio or video. Audio fade values are in dB. They represent relative levels, where 0 is the unaltered original sound level, -40 is silence, -80 the minimum value set by default. You can move fader and keyframes down to -80 but the parameter's curve won't go below -40. For your convenience you can set a different fade range with the curve zoom. Audio fader’s main purpose is to \textit{fade out} sound or to lower the sound level smoothly to silence, or \textit{fade in} to make sounds appear gradually instead of suddenly. Video fade values are the percentage of opacity of the image in normal overlay mode, the percentage of the layer that is mixed into the render pipeline in the other overlay modes.
Click and drag the fader to fade the track in and out. If it is ganged to other tracks of the same media type, with the arm option enabled, the other faders should follow. Hold down the Shift key and drag a fader to center it on the original source value (0 for audio, 100 for video).
\item[mixer] in the expanded patchbay for that track designate the multi-camera mixer mode.
- \item[Overlay mode] in the expanded patchbay is used for porter-duff operations and is full explained in Overlay Modes \ref{cha:???}.

\item[Nudge] is in the expanded patchbay. The nudge value is the amount the track is shifted left or right during playback. The track is not displayed shifted on the timeline, but it is shifted when it is played back. This is useful for synchronizing audio with video, creating fake stereo, or compensating for an effect which shifts time, all without altering any edits (figure~\ref{fig:overlay}).

\section{Two Screen Editing}%
\label{sec:two_screen_editing}
-This is a fast way to construct a program out of movie files. The idea consists of viewing a movie file in one window and viewing the program in another window. Subsections of the movie file are defined in the viewer window and transferred to the end of the program in the program window. Two screen editing can be done simply by using keyboard shortcuts. To get familiar with which keys to use, move the mouse pointer over the transport panel and a tooltip appears, showing what key is bound to that button.
+This is a fast way to construct a program out of movie files (in other programs is called \textit{three points editing}). The idea consists of viewing a movie file in one window and viewing the program in another window. Subsections of the movie file are defined in the viewer window and transferred to the end of the program in the program window. Two screen editing can be done simply by using keyboard shortcuts. To get familiar with which keys to use, move the mouse pointer over the transport panel and a tooltip appears, showing what key is bound to that button.
To begin a two screen editing session, load your media resources by using the main menu \textbf{File pulldown} and choose \textit{Load files}; make sure the insertion mode is set to \textit{Create new resources only}. This insertion strategy is to ensure that the timeline stays unchanged while new resources are brought in. Go to the Resources window and select the Media folder. The newly loaded resources will appear. Double click on a resource or drag it from the media side of the window over to the Viewer window.
\paragraph{Copy} The copy icon, or shortcut letter “c”, copies the selection into the copy buffer.
+\subsection{Use Case – Working with Sequences}
+\label{sub:use_case_working_sequences}
+
+\textit{From the Viewer to the Timeline with the sequences imported \r
+in a Master Project.}
+
+A convenient methodology for working on a Master project along with 1 or more previously saved Sub projects or \textit{sequences} use case is described here. A sequence is an edited assembly of audio and video clips generally consisting of a series of videos that relate to the same activity. This use case explains how to work this way and some things you need to be aware of.
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+ \item First load your Master project, which you worked on and saved earlier as an \texttt{.xml} file, using an Insertion strategy of \textit{Replace current project}. Generally this Master project consists of media with any of the attributes of clips, autos, possibly keyframes, and effects. You will see your project on the main timeline and the Media files that are part of this Master project will be displayed in the Resources window in the Media folder.
+ \item Previously you may have also saved a Sub project, which will now be referred to as a Sequence, as an \texttt{.xml} file that may contain any of the same such things: media, clips, autos, keyframes, effects. Second you will want to load the Sequence using an Insertion strategy of \textit{Create new resources only}. When you do the load, this Sequence will show as a file in the Resources window in the Clips folder. The actual media will show in the Media folder.
+ \item Now Drag and Drop the Sub project from the Clips folder to the Viewer.
+ \item Set In and Out Pointers in the Viewer to the region of interest in the Sub project and in the Timeline of the Main window of your Master project, move the cursor position to where you would like to insert this In/Out section.
+ \item Click on the \textit{Splice (v)} button in the Viewer to insert this section into the Master project timeline. All of the attributes of the selected Sub project section will now be inserted in the main timeline to include the autos, keyframes, effects, and labels.
+ \item Alternatively, if you click on the \textit{Overwrite (b)} button in the Viewer, you can see the Sub project In/Out section in the timeline, but without its autos, effects, keyframes, etc. If in the timeline there were some autos, effects, and keyframes in that Master project, they will be in effect for the new section.
+\end{enumerate}
+
+You can see the advantages of using Splice versus Overwrite to either insert (splice) with all of the attributes of a specific section of your Sequence or to overwrite without the attributes to allow for the smooth operation on the timeline by retaining the timeline’s attributes at that point.
+
+NOTE: for correct operation of this use case, you should have the same (or more) number of tracks in the Master project as you do in the Sequence. To avoid having to know how many tracks you need, you can use the Nest feature as described in the Nesting section (\ref{sub:nesting}).
+
\section{Cut and Paste Editing}%
\label{sec:cut_paste_editing}
\paragraph{Split --- blade cut and hard edges:} You can cut the tracks into 2 pieces on the timeline by putting the hairline cursor on the place you want to do a cut and then using the character “x” or the scissors tool (figure~\ref{fig:cut}).

Cinelerra fills out the audio and video tracks below the dragging cursor with data from the file. This affects what tracks you should create initially and which track to drag the media onto. To drag and drop a file on the Program window, you need to create on the timeline the same set of tracks as your media file.
-When you drag your chosen media from the media folder to the timeline, your mouse pointer will drag a thumbnail and, once over the timeline, the outline of a white rectangle, as big as the edit you are going to have appears. Drag the media to the desired position of an empty track of the timeline and drop it. If there are other edits on that track, when you move the white outline over an edit, you will see a bow tie symbol $\rhd\lhd$ appearing at edit boundaries. If you drop the media there, the new edit will start from the edit boundary indicated by the center of the bow tie $\rhd\lhd$.

Drag the media to the desired position of an empty track of the timeline and drop it. If there are other edits on that track, when you move the white outline over an edit, you will see a bow tie symbol $\bowtie$ appearing at edit boundaries. If you drop the media there, the new edit will start from the edit boundary indicated by the center of the bow tie $\bowtie$.
Since the mouse pointer is in the middle of the white outline, when this rectangle is bigger than the visible part of the timeline, it is quite cumbersome to precisely insert it for long media. Lengthening the duration visible in the timeline by changing the sample zoom in the zoom panel will reduce the size of the white rectangle, making a precise insertion possible.
\noindent When you drag and drop edits within the timeline:
\begin{itemize}
- \item If you drop an edit when bow ties $\rhd\lhd$ are shown, that edit will be cut and pasted starting at the edit
- boundary indicated by the center of the bow tie $\rhd\lhd$. Following edits on the same track will move.
- \item If you drop an edit when there are no bow ties $\rhd\lhd$ shown, the original edit will be muted and pasted
+ \item If you drop an edit when bow ties $\bowtie$ are shown, that edit will be cut and pasted starting at the edit
+ boundary indicated by the center of the bow tie $\bowtie$. Following edits on the same track will move.
+ \item If you drop an edit when there are no bow ties $\bowtie$ shown, the original edit will be muted and pasted
where you dropped it. No edits will move. A silence will appear in place of the original edit.
\item If you have more armed tracks on the timeline than in the asset you are dragging, only the following
edits of the tracks affected by the drag and drop operation will move to the right. This will cause loss
Attaching transitions to multiple selected edits via the Video or Audio pulldowns is also available. The new transitions are attached at the start of the edits, and will replace any existing attached transitions.
-\subsection{Copy/Paste Behavior}%
-\label{sub:copy_paste_behavior}
+\subsection{Grouping edits}%
+\label{sub:grouping_edits}
Cinelerra recognizes as a group, the edits of different armed tracks that have aligned beginnings, regardless of whether they have the same source or aligned ends. You can drag these edits around on the timeline to construct your movie by rearranging scenes. If more than one track is armed, Cinelerra will drag any edits which start on the same positions the edit the mouse pointer is currently over. \\
Another method of Grouping of edits is performed as follows:
\item You can see which parts of that particular media are already used so you do not reuse that same
piece again.
\end{itemize}

\paragraph{How to do a J-cut or L-cut} A J-cut is a split edit film editing technique in which the audio from a following scene overlaps the picture from the preceding scene, so that the audio portion of the later scene starts playing before its picture as a lead-in to the visual cut. An L-cut is a different split edit film editing technique in which the audio from preceding scene overlaps the picture from the following scene, so that the audio cuts after the picture, and continues playing over the beginning of the next scene (figure~\ref{fig:j-cut}). To do either a J-cut or an L-cut, you first shorten the first or second video a little. Then you block the audio tracks from changing by disarming the appropriate tracks. Finally use \textit{One Edit (roll)} the cutting edge off the videos. Moving to the right creates a J-cut and moving to the left creates an L-cut.

They look like tags and the letter E on the menu bar and are oriented forward/backward. These same buttons can be used to \textit{cut} from the insert pointer to the previous or next edit/label when the \texttt{ctrl+alt} keys are both pressed when the buttons are used. They \textit{snap} off the media instead of doing the standard re-positioning. This is useful to minimize the number of operations necessary to cut between edits/labels.
Instead of using the edit panel buttons, you can more easily use the following keyboard shortcuts to perform the same functions:

+\begin{description}
+ \item[Example 1:] You want to make a flashback/rewind at the end of your video\rthat represents a quick summary of the entire video in black and white. On\rhe timeline, you have 60 seconds of edits with clips, cuts, zoom in, zoom\rout and any other edits. Now you want to get this 60 seconds "compressed"\rto 10 seconds, play in reverse, and in black and white at the end of your\r
+ video.
+ You would copy the 60 seconds in a clip, nest the clip in the Clip folder\rof the Resources window and drag it to the timeline. You will see only a\rclean clip without all of the edits that were used to create it because\rnesting display a clip without having to actually use the Render menu.\r
+ Now you can add a Reverse effect, Color3way plugin for black and white, and\ruse the Speed auto to get the 60 seconds down to only 10 seconds.
+ \item[Example 2:] You are working on a complex project with a team in a separate\rlocation. You create some sub projects, i.e. sequences, that you or the\rteam will use in the Master project to merge the sequences in the right\rorder and to make the final color correction steps.
+\end{description}
+
+In each of the examples you can see the benefit of nesting to create clean\rlooking timelines because of the automatic rendering capability of nesting.
