Capture Tab
The Capture tab is where you enter all of the descriptive information about a clip before
you capture it. Entering descriptive information about a clip is also known as logging.
Capture Bin Controls
Use the Capture Bin controls to choose where clips are stored when you capture them.
 Capture Bin: This button contains the name of the bin in your project where logged
clips for captured media are stored. There can be only one capture bin at a time, no
matter how many projects are open. When you click this button, the bin opens in its
own window; if the bin is already open, that window moves to the front.
 Up: Click to move the capture bin up a level from the currently selected bin. For
example, you could switch from a bin to the bin that contains it. If the current
capture bin is at the highest level, clicking this button assigns the project itself as the
capture bin.
 New Bin: Click this to create a new bin inside the currently selected bin, and set it as
the capture bin.
