Sound that lines up
Synchronize two clips from their audio or record voiceovers over selected footage with background monitoring and mute controls.
Overlays with control
Tune timing, position, size, rotation, opacity, radius and padding, then add fade, slide or pop animation.
Ready for the final cut
Export each cluster as H.264 MP4 from 24–60 fps, at selectable resolutions up to 4K, with destination, filename and progress controls.
02 / THE WORKFLOWFrom loose footage
