If you need to nudge those edits without changing the timing of things in your timeline then the trim tool can be the perfect tool for the job. In this helpful tutorial you will learn how the trim tool can be used to gain control over your edits, time edits to beats, create J & L cuts for better audio and video flow.
The tips and tricks covered in this tutorial are invaluable in lots of different aspects of Final Cut Pro X including:
– timing edits with beats
– managing cuts for better dialogue flow
– trimming connected clips
– slipping your edits
