The Cut page Editing tools

This key selects the In point of a clip or timeline. Double press this key to clear the In point.

OUT

This key selects the Out point of a clip or timeline. Double press this key to clear the Out point.

SMART INSRT

Automatically inserts an incoming clip at the playhead or selected In point on the selected track, pushing all clips to the right of the edit point forward to make room for the incoming clip.

In the Cut page, it automatically inserts an incoming clip at the closest edit point to the playhead (as shown by the Smart Indicator) on the selected track, pushing all clips to the right of the edit point forward to make room for the incoming clip you’ve inserted to Track 1. Because this is a smart operation, you are prevented from inserting a clip at any arbitrary frame; incoming clips are only inserted at the closest previously existing edit point.

The position of the playhead is ignored; incoming clips are always placed after the last clip of the selected track in the Timeline.

RIPL O/WR (Ripple Overwrite)

At its simplest, Ripple Overwrite substitutes a clip in the Timeline with an incoming clip on the selected track. Place the playhead over the clip in the Timeline you wish to substitute with the one in the Source Viewer and press this key. This will automatically move all clips that are to the right of the affected clip in the Timeline either forward to make room, if the incoming clip is longer, or back to eliminate gaps, if the incoming clip is shorter.

CLOSE UP

Lets you edit a clip into the Timeline as a zoomed-in close up to make up for a lack of actual close ups that would have been shot with either longer lenses or by moving the camera closer to the subject. This function is particularly useful when you’re working with 4K media in a 1080 timeline, or 8K media in a 4K timeline, which enables you zoom into existing wide shots to create medium shots, or medium shots to create close up shots, with no loss of quality.

Performing this edit adds the incoming clip as an approximate 20% to 40% zoomed close up and also performs a face detection. If a face or faces are found, it automatically re-positions the face top center in the frame. You can always reposition the close up manually using the Sizing controls in the Inspector.

How this key works depends on the mode that is active in the Cut page.

Source mode:

— The selected clip in the Source Tape view is edited into the Timeline as a close up, with duration based on the In and Out points set in the clip and the Smart Indicator on the Timeline.

Timeline mode:

— The clip under the playhead has a Close Up applied to it and is copied to the track above it, with a 5 second duration starting from the playhead position.

Live Overwrite mode:

— This will perform a Close Up on the selected camera as it’s overwritten into the Timeline.

— The LED on this key will then illuminate to show you that this mode is armed.

In the Edit page, how this key works depends on if you are in the Source or Timeline Viewers.

Source Viewer:

— The selected clip in the Source Viewer is edited into the Timeline as a close up on the next highest track. The duration is based on the In and Out points set in the clip, and inserted at the playhead position on the Timeline.

Timeline Viewer:

— The clip under the playhead has a Close Up applied to it and is copied to the track above it, with a 5 second duration starting from the playhead position.
