Clip customization

Last updated: 31 July 2026

Customize each Clip in its properties: choose a layout, set the audio volumes and playback speed, and add intro and outro fades.

Select a Clip by clicking its timeline element. Its properties appear next to the preview.

Layouts

For each Clip you can choose from five layouts: camera overlay, spatial, side-by-side, camera only and screen only. Rapidemo animates the transitions between layouts automatically.

Some layouts are only available if you’ve recorded your camera.

Audio volumes

Each Clip has its own microphone volume and system audio volume. Lower a Clip’s microphone gain to soften a loud take, or mute the system audio for a section where your computer’s sounds would distract.

Playback speed

Speed up boring sections, for instance while you’re typing or waiting for a progress bar. Change the playback speed in the Clip’s properties; each Clip’s speed is independent. See speed up a Clip.

Intro and outro fades

Each Clip has intro and outro durations that control the fade timing at its edges, up to 2 seconds each.

Camera per clip

The camera’s position and scale can be set per Clip, so the overlay can move out of the way when a Clip shows important content behind it. See the camera overlay layout.
