Finalizing the comp

After you have completed a comp, you might want to mix all the unmuted takes down to a new Take lane as a single continuous take.

To flatten all isolated clips in a track

1.	Click the track’s Expand/collapse Take Lanes button to show Take lanes.

2.	Right-click the Comp clip and select Flatten Comp on the pop-up menu.

The comp is mixed down to a new Take lane named Comp. The new take is locked to prevent further editing, and the new Take lane is soloed.

To unlock the clip, select the clip, show the Clip Inspector, and set Lock to Off. For details, see Locking Clips.
