User Manual

Roll
When this key is pressed and held, it lets the user trim the nearest transition point (as shown by
the Smart Indicator), and roll the edit point back and forth between the clips by simply rotating
the Search Dial. The trim point is highlighted in green. Release the key to confirm the edit.
SLIP SRC (Slip Source)
When this key is pressed and held, it allows the user to slip the footage of the clip to the left of
the Smart Indicator back and forth by moving the Search dial. A four way multiview will show the
In and Out points for both source and destination clips as you slip. The clip that will slip will be
highlighted in orange. Release the key to confirm the edit.
SLIP DEST (Slip Destination)
When this key is pressed and held, it allows the user to slip the footage of the clip to the right of
the Smart Indicator back and forth by moving the Search dial. A four way multiview will show the
In and Out points for both source and destination clips as you slip. The clip that will slip will be
highlighted in orange. Release the key to confirm the edit.
Trim Editor
This button near the Timecode keypad places the Cut page into the Trim Editor mode in the
Viewer. The current transition point is highlighted in green. You can navigate from transition
point to transition point in the Timeline by rotating the Search dial. Pressing the U key will cycle
through the edit point types for your trim.
TIP: It’s important to remember in using the Trim tools that the playhead position over a
clip is not a selection. Only the Smart Indicator will determine where the In/Out points
are set for trimming. If you find you are often misjudging the Trim points, a press of the
Up Arrow or Down Arrow will likely get you where you want to be.
Transition Keys
This set of keys provide immediate shortcuts to the most commonly used transition commands.
