Final Cut Pro X for Final Cut Pro 7 Editors

Three-Point Edits

• You can perform three-point edits in Final Cut Pro X just as you would in

Final Cut Pro 7. First, set start and end points for the source selection in the Browser.

Then position the skimmer (or the playhead if the skimmer is not available) where you

want your edit to start, and press D to make an overwrite edit.

• To make a backtimed edit, position the skimmer or playhead where you want your

edit to end, and press Shift-D.

• If you select a range in the Timeline, the start and end points of the range provide two

of the points for the three-point edit. When you press D to perform the edit, the start

point of the Browser selection is used as the third point; when you press Shift-D, the

end point is used.

Multicam Editing

Final Cut Pro X has been completely updated for modern multicamera workows.

It has been designed to handle source material with dierent frame sizes, frame rates,

and codecs—all in the same multicam clip. It can also combine the rich metadata

in Final Cut Pro X and your le-based media to sync more easily and accurately

than in Final Cut Pro 7.

• Unlike in Final Cut Pro 7, you no longer need to sync clips manually before making

a multiclip. Select all of the camera angles that you want to place in a multicam clip

and choose File > New > Multicam Clip. Then choose the automatic syncing method

or one of several custom methods if you have a specic way to sync the clips. You can

also use the automatic audio sync technology in Final Cut Pro X to make precision

sync adjustments based on the audio waveforms in the angles of a multicam clip,

even if the clips don’t have matching timecode.

• To view all the angles of a multicam clip, you no longer double-click to open

the multicam clip in the Viewer. You can choose to open the Angle Viewer

(Command-Shift-7) and adjust the display depending on the number of angles

or banks of angles.

• The Angle Editor is a completely new interface that allows you to view the layout

of the clips, adjust the sync and the angle order, set the monitoring angle, or add or

delete angles. These changes aect all the places where the multicam clip is used

in a project.
