Hello All,
I'm a recent convert to Avid Media Composer. Trying to learn it because I'm really getting frustrated with Adobe Premier. I've made the decision to jump with both feet into Avid because I need something better.
But, all that aside, describing my problem is easier done with a video:

I didn't annotate the video, but the gist is, I cannot get the video from the source monitor to take a new track on the timeline. The first try is with source tracks linked to V1 and A1 and A2. The behavior is as expected. The second try is with source monitor linked to V2 and A3 and A4. It is my understanding that this should insert the marked clip into V2/A3/A4. But it doesn't. It puts it in V1 the same as before. So what net effect did the linking have ??
The last try is by clicking the insert button. At which I get an error message saying that there is insufficient source material to make the edit.
What Gives?? There must be some very basic element I'm misunderstanding here.....
