Apple Final Cut Pro 7 - Manual (Page 585)

• Razor Blade All: Cuts all clip items on all tracks at the point where you click in the
Timeline.
Before
The Razor Blade All tool
lets you cut clips across
all tracks.
After
Using the Add Edit Command to Cut Clips
The Add Edit command in the Sequence menu (Control-V) is similar to the Razor Blade
All tool, cutting all clip items in the Timeline at the current position of the playhead.
However, only clip items on tracks with Auto Select turned on are cut.
It can be very handy to use the keyboard shortcut for the Add Edit command during
playback of your sequence, so that you can make cuts as the playhead moves along the
Timeline. Each time you add an edit during playback, a red marker appears at the position
of the cut you just made. When playback stops, each of these markers is replaced by a
cut.
To cut all clip items at the playhead position
µ
Choose Sequence > Add Edit (or press Control-V).
Note: Only clip items on tracks with Auto Select turned on are cut.
