Clips on timeline
Just started to use FCP and have a simple question.
Need to drag a bunch of clips to the time line, and have the same gap between them. This in order to record it to tape, every clip starts 10:01:00:00, 10:02:00:00, and so on. Is there any non-manually way to do it?
I suspect there is smarter way then go each time to the right place and drag a single clip… -

That is basically it man. Load the clip/sequence you want to put in the timeline into your Viewer. Then type the timecode in point for your timeline (e.g. 10:01:00:00). Then press F10. And repeat.
FYI: 10:01:00:00 will put the clip 10 hours and 1 minute down your timeline. If you need to use 10 as your hour for some reason, go to your sequence settings and change the start timecode for your timeline to 10:00:00:00. Otherwise just use 1:00:00:00 as a starting point, and when you go back to tape set the inpoint on your deck to 10:00:00:00 and things should jive.

You can use a shortcut for entering all those :00.
Just type “period” for each set of double zeros.Kevin Monahan
