Avid has a nasty habit of being really careful with drive space, so media that is not needed will not be digitized.<br />As a result of this, each audio split will generate a new clip.<br />Now this used to be a good idea in the old days, but since drives are cheap now we prefer speed.<br />This is where ALE cleaner comes in.<br /><br />Have a look at the simple sequence here, one shot with one cutaway. Left is the bin with the decomposed sequence,<br />right is the amount you have to digitize if you use ALE cleaner.<br />Main features include<br /><br />What it does is checking for overlap.<br />If there is overlap in either video or audio, it will combine the clips into one bigger clip.<br />No need to rewind, preroll and capture almost the same piece of tape again.<br /><br />It does more. It gives you instant feedback over the amount of material on each reel, and an estimation of the total job time.<br />(Based on the amount of reels, total duration, winding and preroll time.)<br />So before lunch you'll know which reel to insert...<br /><br />It will give you all audio tracks, no matter if the original sequence contained just one.<br />So if you need to go back to the other channel, it's as easy as a match frame, no need to go back to tape again...<br />Also, there is an option to load video and audio on every clip, so you've got everything there is on tape on every cut right under you fingertips.
