SINGLE-MACHINE EDITING
OVERLAY FROM CLIPBOARD
Overlay is similar to PASTE in that it pastes over any existing material at the point of pasting but,
if there are any gaps in the material being pasted, these are 'transparent' and will reveal any audio
'underneath'. For example:
Compare this with PASTE where the gap in the pasted material 'obscures' the material beneath it.
When using PASTE, the area 'underneath' the gap being pasted over would not be heard whereas
with OVERLAY it would.
The OVERLAY function is accessed from the second group of edit functions shown when the
MORE (F6) key is pressed on the main edit page. Pressing MORE (F6) followed by OVERLAY
(F4) will display this screen:
As with paste, you may overlay material from the default clipboard 0 or from clipboards 1-9.
EXECUTE completes the action and closes the screen. If you are not sure of the clipboard you
have selected to OVERLAY, you can press PLAY to audition it prior to committing it.
OVERLAYING TO OUT AND SYNC REFERENCES
You may overlay referenced to the source material's SYNC or OUT points simply by pressing
SYNC or OUT prior to pressing EXECUTE (see PASTING TO SYNC OR OUT REFERENCES for
a detailed description of using the SYNC and OUT keys for back-timing as the function is essentially
identical even if the end result is slightly different).
