This selection organizes clips for use with Pinnacle Liquid series 

NLE systems. Products such as the Pinnacle file format were 

created for use with products such as Pinnacle Liquid Edition. The 

Pinnacle file format creates three files simultaneously during a 

recording; an AVI video file and two separate WAV audio files 

labeled as left and right. An additional ALE file for each recording 

session is also created which contains timecode data. This file must 

be kept with the media. 
Once clips have been imported into Liquid Edition, an Index file is 

created on the disk drive for each clip. Do not delete this file since 

it is required to continue work in the particular project.
