Multitrack Sequence Editor The sequence editor allows you to edit, mix, spot and bounce audio files on 8 stereo tracks. It compares to"sequences" in Avid's AudioVision. Use sequences to build a "big" explosion out of six individual sound effects or compare music edits in sync to a QuickTime video e.g.

• Spot a sequence to multiple tracks in Pro Tools maintaining the edits
• Save, load and catalog sequences on disk or in the database
• Sequences can be searched and auditioned like audio files
• Sequences only reference audio files (local and network drives)
• Bounce a sequence to mono or stereo audio file
• Bounce a sequence and drag'n'drop it to an Avid bin
• Pitch control a sequence

Project Management Developed with the help of Mark Mangini, one of the leading figures in Hollywood sound editing, the NetMix Pro Project Manager provides sound supervisors and editors with access and search capabilities for multiple projects simultaneously. The Project Manager allows you to organize sounds by project, reel, scene and spot.

“The sound editing process is all about pulling together thousands of bits of minutiae to create a finished whole,” said Mangini.  “I use NetMix Pro for creative and organizational details; I input the sound script, because the Project Manager enables you to break this down into reels, scenes, spots.That’s the first step.  I have a sketch pad, so that whenever I have an idea, I can include it.  I want ADR for a particular line; I heard a sound in the library and I don’t want to forget it.  The Project Manager becomes my audio sketch pad for the entire movie.”
Mark Mangini, Sound Supervisor - Oscar-nominated hands and ears that made films such as ‘Aladdin,’ ‘Star Trek IV,’ and ‘Fifth Element’

Features:

• Organize sounds using a hierarchical structure : project-reel-scene-spot
• Cut, copy and paste sound(s) or complete spots, scenes and reels
• Completely searchable by any field and any level: project-reel-scene-spot
• Transfer sounds of spots, scenes and reels to Pro Tools
• Visual transfer flags
• Print reel cut lists, pull lists
• Add custom fields
• Use individual comments, regions and pitch for every single sound.

Though originally developed for sound supervisors, the Project Manager is a great way to organize audio files for any industry professional:

• Organize sound effects and music you used for commercials, TV shows
• Create cue sheets for music reporting
• Organize sound effects, music, ADR for games by levels e.g.
• Pre-select sound effects and music for a project just using a laptop e.g.
• Select music tracks for a project adding personal notes
• Search for music or sound effects you have used in past projects

Because the Project Manager is completely searchable, you can search for audio files, you have used in previous projects. You can just search the current project or all projects.

"I frequently need to search my current project or all of my projects.  I remember, for example, that I had a great gun shot for Bruce Willis in the film ‘Die Hard,’ and I want to be able to search for ‘Bruce Willis Gun Shot,’ audition the sound effect, and copy it into my current project.”
Mark Mangini, Sound Supervisor

The Project Manager is using the multi-user NetMix Server database to enable sharing of projects and even simultaneous access to projects.

QuickTime SyncAudition NetMix Pro can playback any QuickTime compatible movie file. Using a professionally designed transport control, you can select any scene in a QuickTime movie and play (a) the Waveform Clip Editor or (b) the Multitrack Sequence Editor in sync. Loop the selected scene and you can audition different music tracks or sound effects in sync to picture.

A great feature not only for clients, who cannot "imagine" how a music track fits to picture without actually seeing it.
