  • Ripple delete stacked clips

    Posted by Oliver Peters on February 2, 2012 at 1:53 am

    OK, brain fade or I’m missing something. I have 4 stacked clips (primary + 3 connected). I want to do a ripple delete across all clips – video + audio. Old way would be mark in/out, ripple delete. What’s the new way? Right now I’m not finding it and neither the magnetic timeline nor position mode is helping the situation. TIA.

    Select primary and hit delete.

    Unless I’m missing what you’re trying to do.

    [Jeremy Garchow] “Select primary and hit delete.”

    That only deletes that portion of the primary. Not across all clips.

    That’s not what you want to do? Sorry I’m cornfused. Long day.

    You don’t want to ripple the length of the deleted primary clip?

    [Jeremy Garchow] “You don’t want to ripple the length of the deleted primary clip?”

    Think of a quad split. 4 stacked clips of equal duration. I want to simply take 1 sec. out of the middle. (No, I don’t want to use compound clips.) This is a piece of cake in any NLE.

    Got it.

    Skim to in point, command b, skim to out point, command b, delete middle primary.

    Or compound, range, delete, break apart.

    Nope. Doesn’t work. It’s only extracting the middle of the primary, not all 4 clips.

    What’s the command to “Blade” across all clips at once. That would be needed to do this.

    Command-b isn’t blading all? Is the stack dejected when you blade?

    No. Only the primary. What do you mean “dejected”?
