Channel panel markers
When you add a marker to a clip in a Channel Panel, behavior can vary depending on the state of the clip and if the channel is in a gang.
If the clip is currently recording, the marker is added and appears on the scrub bar. As the clip continues to record and its length increases, the marker moves to the left on the scrub bar, as its position relative to the end of the clip changes.
You can add a marker to a clip in an individual channel. This includes an individual channel that is not in a gang as well as an individual channel that is in a gang. If you add a marker to a clip in an individual channel that is in a gang, the marker is not applied in the other clips in the gang and it does not appear on the gang scrub bar.
- All channels must be recording, all channels must be cued, or all channels must be playing.
- All the clips in the gang must be of the same length.
- Recording channels must have started at the same timecode value.
- Cued channels must have the same starting and ending timecode values.
If you start your ganged channels recording as one gang record and as long as all the clips continue to be same length during the recording process, you can add a gang marker to all the clips in the gang. These markers appear on the individual channel scrub bar and on the gang scrub bar.
If the clips in a gang are not the same length, you cannot add a marker to the gang. This occurs if you start/stop recordings of individual channels in the gang or if you cue already recorded clips of different length/timecode into the gang.
If you load a ganged clip into the Inspector panel and add a marker there, the marker appears on that individual channel's scrub bar in the gang. However, that marker does not appear on the gang scrub bar, since the marker was not added to the gang.
