Which statement about applying an effect to multiple segments is true?

• A. You must apply to each segment individually
• B. You can only apply to adjacent segments
• C. Only one segment at a time can be selected
• D. You can select multiple segments and apply by double-clicking an effect in the Effect Palette

Answer: (D)

When applying an effect to multiple segments, you batch the work by selecting several items and applying the effect in one action. In Media Composer, you can select multiple segments in the timeline (adjacent or non-adjacent by using the usual selection methods) and then double-click the desired effect in the Effect Palette. The effect, with its current settings, is applied to all the selected segments, saving time and keeping those clips consistent. This approach isn’t limited to a single segment or to adjacent segments, and it doesn’t require applying the effect separately to each clip. If you need different settings for different segments, you’d apply the effect to each one individually.
