Avid Xpress Pro Media Composer and Match Frame
Using Match Frame in the Avid editing software is a part of my daily workflow. Being able to find the exact frame in my timeline and reload that frame back into the source menu is very important for many reasons. The most common us is applying a Motion Effect to an exact point in my sequence.
To use the Match Frame feature:
1. Move to the frame in your sequence that you want to match.
2.Make sure you select the correct track for the frame that you want to match in the Track Selector panel.
3. Click the Fast Menu button, and drag to tear off the Tool palette.
4. Click the Match Frame button on the Tool palette.
This loads and marks the source clip in the Source monitor or a Source monitor.
I use this button so often in my daily workflow that I mapped it to my F6 button on my keyboard. Match Frame is a very powerful tool in the Avid Xpress Pro and Media Composer.
