1. From the EditDesk, enter the clip library into which you want to capture a clip.
2. Click Input Clip or press F9.

   The Input Clip menu appears.

To access the Input Clip menu from the EditDesk:

   When you capture clips to the EditDesk, it is a good idea to save them to a clip library immediately.
