Program Monitor during a ripple or rolling edit

tively moves the edit point between clips, preserving other clips’ positions in time and maintaining the total duration
of the sequence. Pressing Alt when you begin to perform a rolling edit ignores the link between video and audio
(known as an L-cut or J-cut).
In this rolling edit, the edit point is dragged earlier in time—shortening the previous clip, lengthening the next clip, and maintaining the
program duration.
A ripple edit trims a clip and shifts subsequent clips in the track by the amount you trim. Shortening a clip by ripple
editing shifts all clips after the cut back in time; conversely, extending a clip shifts the clips that follow the cut forward
in time. When you’re making a ripple edit, empty space on one side of the cut is treated as a clip and shifts in time
just as a clip would be. Pressing Alt when you begin to perform a ripple edit ignores the link between video and audio.
In this ripple edit, the edit point is dragged earlier in time—shortening the preceding clip and the total program duration.
