Hi this is Shana Bethune and on behalf of Expert Village and I'm going to talk to you
about using multiple tracks in final cut pro. So final cut automatically sets up one video
track and 4 audio tracks in your time line. If you like to add more audio track or more
video tracks go up to sequence and down to insert track. Here you can select the number
of video tracks you like to add as well as the number of audio tracks. You can also choose
whether the tracks go before the original b-1 track or after. So right now I'm going
to add one new video track so enter 1 and make sure this box right here is checked and
then I click ok. Now down here I got a 2nd video track called b-2. Now if I want to change
the destination of the clip that is in my viewer to the second video track instead of
the 1st video track I move the source from b-1 up to b-2. Now when I add footage it would
appear in the 2nd video track rather than in the first one. When you are working with
multiple tracks it can get very complex. Always make sure that your source control is lined
up with the correct destination control before adding new media.
