Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method comprising: receiving, at a client computing device, user input indicating a segment of a media asset that is to be modified and a modification to the segment; segmenting, at a digital signal processing server, the media asset into a main mix and a segmented mix, wherein the main mix excludes the segmented mix and wherein the segmented mix includes the segment of the media asset indicated by the user input; wherein the segmenting the media asset further comprises generating, at the digital signal processing server, baseline processing instructions corresponding to digital signal processing that is common to both the main mix and the segmented mix, wherein the baseline processing instructions are generated based on data extracted from an edit decision list corresponding to the media asset; processing the main mix at the digital signal processing server, wherein processing the main mix is performed with respect to the edit decision list; receiving the segment at the client computing device in a first transmission sent from the digital signal processing server to the client computing device, wherein the received segment is separated from the main mix of the media asset; modifying, at the client computing device, the received segment based on the modification indicated by the user input, thereby generating a modified segment; receiving the main mix of the media asset in a second transmission sent from the digital signal processing server to the client computing device, wherein the first and second transmissions are distinct transmissions that are initiated at different times; and synchronizing the modified segment with the main mix of the media asset at the client computing device.
