Switching between both modes is done by clicking on the title in the top menu bar, but it can create confusion, especially if you’ve worked with multiple layers. This is where you can edit using multiple layers of both audio and video. If you’re familiar with other video editors, this is the interface which you might more easily recognise. Thankfully once you’ve dragged the effect onto your clip, you gain access to all the sliders you need to customise it.īut if you need even more customisation options, that’s where the Expert interface comes in.

You actually have a good range of tools to use, but the interface feels dated. String them together, add transitions and effects, it’s all very simple and straightforward. There, each clip, no matter how long, is represented by a rectangular thumbnail.
