Modifying and Removing Filters

To modify filters in a sequence, open the clip to which the filter is applied in the Viewer.

Note: Filters can be added to clips even if the clips aren’t in a sequence. If you want to
modify or remove a filter for a clip in a sequence, make sure the sequence clip is open in
the Viewer, not the master clip from the Browser.

To view a clip’s filters in the Viewer
Do one of the following:

µ

If your sequence clip is already open in the Viewer, click the Filters tab.

µ

Double-click the filters bar in the keyframe graph area of a clip in the Timeline. The clip
opens in the Viewer with the Filters tab in front.

If a sequence clip was open in the Viewer with its Filters tab in front, a new sequence clip
opened in the Viewer will also appear with its Filters tab in front.

Using the Filters tab, you can make adjustments to the parameters of individual filters.
Because filters vary widely, see

“Applying Filters to an Audio Clip”

for general guidelines

on how to use specific filters.

In addition to adjusting individual settings for each filter, you can also enable and disable
the filters without removing them from your clip, rearrange their order to modify their
effects, and remove them from your clips.

To enable or disable a filter

µ

Select or deselect the checkbox by the filter name in the Filters tab. If you deselect the
checkbox, the filter is disabled but not removed from the clip. This is a useful way to
preview different combinations of filters without constantly applying and removing the
same filters.

Because filters are applied serially, if you apply multiple filters to a clip, the order in which
they appear is very important. (See

“Applying Filters to an Audio Clip.”
