So as you can see within our timeline, by default, we have an audio track, which is this area here.

And then we also have an audio track.

But what we can do in Phil Mora is have multiple video and audio tracks, and that can all be managed

with this icon here.

So I can click on this and I can click on Add video track.

And I've added a new video track, obviously.

And I can also add an audio track, and I can just keep clicking these options and adding more video

and audio tracks.

But if I have too many of them and I'd like to delete some, what I can do is I can come back to this

option once again and I can click on delete empty tracks.

And we're back down to our default number of tracks back in this setting.

There is this as well adjust track height.

So at the moment, it sets to small, but there is normal and there's big.

So you can just choose what height you want your tracks to be.

And then there's this option here.

Open track manager.

So if I were to click on this, it gives me an opportunity to create multiple new video tracks and audio

tracks.

And all I have to do is just click old and drag over the figure here with the mouse cursor, and I can

change these figures, or I can just click in here.

And type in the figures manually solicits go for two and then below we have the placement where it where

it's just asking you, Okay, do you want these new tracks above track one or below track one?

And typically I just leave this on above track one.

And the same principles apply as well for the placement for audio tracks as well.

And then you can just click, OK.

You then end up with these extra tracks.

So what I'll do is I'll come back to this setting here, and I'm just going to click on delete empty

tracks.

Now, one thing you can do to add extra tracks is this You can go get your video clips.

Let's just do this.

Let's go get the audio clip and I'll pull it into the default video track.

Then I'll go get the Caterpillar clip and I'll click old and drag and put this just above.

And as you can see, I've just created a new video track and I can just keep adding these videos in

new tracks and new tracks will appear, and the same principle applies when it comes to the audio tracks

as well.

I can go get this song here, and even though this wasn't available in the previous tutorials or you

may have not seen it, it will be available when you actually download these files.

But I can take hold and drag this audio track.

Into the audio track, and if I wanted to create another audio track, I can just repeat the process.

I can click, hold and drag and pull another copy of this audio track, which is a song into another

audio track.

So that's a far easier way of doing this than, let's say I've got too many.

I can just select one of these songs I can press delete.

And looking at my video clips here, maybe I didn't want this clip here.

I didn't want this clip here.

Now I have all of these spaces, but I'm pretty sure you already know what to do.

You can come to the Manage Tracks option here and then just click on Delete Empty Tracks.

So that's how that works.

So next, I'm going to just delete all of this here by selecting all of it.

And I'll press delete, and what I'm going to do now is I'm going to just click hold and drag over some

of these clips here, so I'll do this, I'll bring them all into the default track here.

And I think as well, I will bring in the Caterpillar, the Caterpillar clip, and put this in a video

track above, and let's just do the same, maybe with the Eagle clip as well.

Let's put this over here and then the deer clip.

Let's put this over here now.

Next, I'm going to cover something called auto ripple or what is also known as auto ripple delete.

And here is the setting for that.

So basically, you can just turn it on or you can turn it off.

So I'm going to turn it off by clicking on it and actually goes green.

And with this auto ripple turned off, if I were to select one of these clips and press delete.

You end up with the space where the old clip used to be.

But if I hold down control and present to reverse my actions and then I turn auto ripple on.

Now, when I select this clip here and press Delete, you'll see all of the clips to the right.

Move over to the left.

So they've all moved over to the left, and more importantly, they've all kept their position.

So, for instance, that these two are a good example, they've kept the exact same position.

It's just they've moved over to the left, if you know what I mean.

So that's some pretty handy functionality within Formula A. Especially handy when you have a lot of

clips that you're trying to manage and you find a clip that you want to delete.

So with this functionality, you can just select it, press delete.

And more than likely, you won't have to worry about the placement of the other clips, though obviously

if you have an audio track underneath, you've got to make sure that the audio track is still synchronized

with the video clips themselves.

If that's what you're trying to achieve.
