But there's one thing in Avenue that doesn't make sense to me. Firstly, I should explain the way I use the software.
I do not use any audio features, I purely mix video. The idea of binding clips to layers seems very restrictive to me, so I have set the global clip targets to 'active layer' (great that this option is there).
But this is where things don't make sense. It really feels like when I click on the active clip in a layer's transport area, this should automatically select it as the active clip for parameter editing, regardless of which deck I'm in. But that is not the case. I have to remember which deck that clip was in, jump to it, wait for all clips to load, then select it again. Even then, it seems that sometimes when I edit the parameters, the edits don't become active until I relaunch the clip. But then sometimes it works straight away? It almost seems like a bug?
Is there something I'm missing?
