Timeline & Deliver
Cut the chosen takes in the browser, then render masters, hand the edit to Premiere, Final Cut or Resolve, and collect approvals with review links.

- Tracks V1–V4 for picture, A1–A8 for music, VO, effects and ambience, and T for titles.
- Assemble lays every shot in board order with its chosen take. A shot without a take stays in place as an offline clip.
- Move, trim and split clips, add dissolves, and undo.
- Every edit is saved as a new timeline version; masters and exports always name the version they came from.

Deliver → Masters renders a timeline version on the server: ProRes 422 HQ and DNxHR HQX for post, a preview proxy, and the animatic. A source clip that cannot be read renders as black or silence and is reported, like media offline in an NLE, instead of failing the whole master. A failed render can be retried.
