The Monitor Panels

The monitor panels are where you view video clips and edited video sequences.

The left screen is the source monitor, which allows you to preview clips and make adjustments before adding them to the timeline.

The right screen is the program monitor, which shows you the active timeline.

Controls under each monitor allow you to scroll through the video and set edit points.

In the top right corner of the monitor panel is a fly-out menu containing numerous additional viewing options, including technical monitors.
