About this manual

CatalystEdit is a fast‑cut editing tool for 4K, RAW and HD video, designed by Sony Creative Software. It offers a flexible timeline, multi‑channel audio handling, and tight integration with CatalystPrepare, allowing users to work with high‑resolution XAVC and SonyRAW files as easily as HD footage.

The manual walks users through the interface, project creation, media management, timeline editing, audio track editing, and the rendering/export workflow. It also covers advanced features such as picture‑in‑picture effects, keyframe animation, and project backup handling.
