PRO X Studio Editor: User Manual Welcome to the Studio Editor user manual. This comprehensive guide covers the core features, modular workspaces, and tools included in the web-based studio suite created by Matthew J. Thomas. Overview & Interface Navigation Studio Editor is organized into four primary workspaces accessed via the top navigation bar: Photo: A raster-based image editor featuring layer management, selection tools, filters, brush engines, and LUT color look support. Video: A non-linear video editing timeline supporting multi-track arrangement (video tracks V1–V3 and audio track A1), transitions, titles, lower thirds, and sequence settings. Audio: A waveform-based audio editor equipped with spectral controls, gain/amplification adjustments, mastering compression, and effects like echo and normalization. 3D: A 3D viewport environment for geometric mesh modeling, lighting control, texture mapping, and scene generation using embedded Three.js architecture. Global Controls Workspace Level (lvl): Toggle between Simple, Advanced, and Pro modes to reveal or hide advanced editing parameters, bitrates, and granular controls. Fullscreen (fsbtn): Expand the application interface across your entire display. Save File (savebtn): Export your active project or workspace export files. 1. Photo Workspace Designed for image retouching, digital painting, and multi-layer composition. Tools & Brushes: Select from brushes including Round, Soft, Airbrush, Pencil, Marker, Calligraphy, Chalk, Spray, Watercolor, and Bristle. Customize size, hardness, and flow parameters. Layers Panel: Create, duplicate, delete, merge down, and rearrange layers. Adjust individual layer blend modes and opacity levels. Adjustments & LUTs: Apply color corrections or load .cube LUT files to grade your imagery. Selection & Filters: Use selection tools with feathering and apply filters such as Gaussian blur, motion blur, glow, denoise, sharpening, vignette, and duotone mappings. 2. Video Workspace A non-linear editor (NLE) timeline built for assembling video, audio, and graphic overlays. Program Monitor & Timeline: Preview your sequence at configurable frame rates. Arrange clips across V1, V2, V3 video lanes and A1 audio lanes. Editing Actions: Split clips at the playhead (S), delete items, or perform ripple edits to close timeline gaps. Project Elements: Add customizable titles, lower thirds, subtitles, and matte color blocks directly into your project bin. Export Settings: Configure output containers (WebM/VP9, MP4/H.264, MP4/H.265 HEVC, or ProRes), custom resolutions, frame rates (24 to 60 fps), and bitrates. 3. Audio Workspace An audio workstation workspace for waveform manipulation and mastering. Waveform Navigation: Open audio files, drag across the waveform to select time ranges, and use precision trim, cut, and silence tools. Effects: Apply fade-ins, fade-outs, normalization, speed modifications, and echo filters. Mastering Rack: Shape your sound using bass/treble shelving, compression threshold controls, ratios, and limiter ceilings before exporting to WAV. 4. 3D Workspace An interactive 3D graphics environment powered by WebGL. Primitives & Additions: Add geometric primitives to your scene including Cubes, Spheres, Cylinders, Cones, Toruses, Planes, and Point Lights. In Pro mode, spawn particle effects like fire, smoke, water, and gunshot simulations. Camera Controls: Orbit: Click and drag inside the viewport. Pan: Hold Shift while dragging (or right-click drag). Zoom: Scroll the mouse wheel. Select: Click directly on scene items listed in the Outliner. Exporting: Export individual rendered frames as PNG images or export 3D models to standard formats like OBJ.
