Comp

Use Comp to blend two inputs and their mattes. The type of composition is determined by the selected blending mode.

To access the Comp menu, use:

• Batch, then select a node from the Node bin.

• Timeline, then use Batch FX (see Creating Batch FX).

• Timeline, then add Timeline FX from the Effects ribbon (see Adding Timeline FX).

• Tools, then select from the menu (See Accessing Tools).

The Timeline FX pipeline uses:

• The upper track as the primary clip and matte (optional) that comprise the foreground of the composition.
• The lower tracks as the secondary clip and matte (optional) that comprises the background.

This node accepts:

• The primary clip (Front) and matte that comprise the foreground of the composition.
• The secondary clip (Back) and back matte (optional) that comprise the background.

Tip: The default inputs for the foreground and background can be switched using the Swap Inputs button in the Comp menu.

This node outputs a result and an output matte.
