What It Does

Three groups of tools. One extension. No need to leave Avid.

Sequence To Text

Parses your sequence into a tab-delimited text file, for easy use in a word processor or Excel. Handy for a quick glance at the cut in text form or when you need a text file for your favorite database.

Marker Check

Compares sequences and reports back what's been removed, added, or modified.

editorial

Marker Forge

Change marker color, comment, or increment across a batch of markers all at once instead of changing one marker at a time.

editorial

EDL List Compare

Compares your EDL against a pasted list, for those times when you're working on a turnover and want to be sure the EDL contains everything on the list.

Summarize Effects

Analyzes the sequence for any effects on clips, reports what's present, and optionally creates markers with all the effect information and parameters.

vfx

Handle Calculator

Takes the guesswork out of how many frames a shot needs. An easy-to-use calculator with all the fields you need to get the right number.

vfx

SubCap Maker

Simple way to take your sequence markers and turn them into a subcap-compatible file.

vfx

SubClip It

Batch-creates subclips from markers and renames them from an extensive set of parameters.

Bin/CSV Merge

One part bin mixed with one part CSV equals a tool for when you have data in a CSV you want batch-added to a bin column.
