I do a lot of ripple editing for the dialog work I do for podcasts and these videos. I've recently come up with a way to save some time doing this editing, by making a custom action that trims, jumps back, and plays the edit in context. This saves me from needing to click earlier in the edited track to hear how it flows. I use S to split, A for Custom Trim Left, and Shift-A for Custom trim and preview. Custom Trim left action: - Item: Trim items left of cursor - Item navigation: Move cursor to start of items - view: go to cursor Go to Extensions: Command Parameters and set Seconds (edit cursor) to [1.000] Custom trim and preview action: - Custom: Trim left - Xenakios/SWS: Move left configured seconds - Transport: Play Thanks for watching!
