Split or cut one or more clips with the Razor tool

You can use the Razor tool to cut a clip into two clips, or to cut across clips in several tracks at once. Splitting a clip creates a new and separate
instance of the original clip, and any linked clips. The resulting clips are full versions of the original clip, but with different In and Out points.

Do any of the following:

To split a single clip or linked clip, select the Razor tool

, and click the point in the sequence where you want to split the clip.

To split only the audio or video portion of linked clips, Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS) with the Razor tool.

To split clips on targeted tracks, click the headers of the desired tracks to target them. Position the playhead where you want to split the
clip or clips, and choose Sequence > Add Edit. Alternatively, press Ctrl+K (Windows), or Command+K (Mac OS).

To split clips on all except locked tracks, lock any track containing a clip that you don’t want to split. Choose Sequence > Add Edit to All
Tracks . Press Ctrl+Shift+K (Windows), or Command+Shift+K (Mac OS). You can also Shift-click with the Razor tool to split all tracks at
the same point in a Timeline panel.

If you want to change effect settings over time, don’t split the clip; you can apply keyframes to a single clip instead.

To toggle between showing and hiding through-edits, choose Sequence > Show Through Edits.

When enabled, all through-edits in a sequence are shown with small white triangles indicating a through-edit.

To join a through-edit, do one of the following:

Select a through-edit and then choose Edit > Clear.

Select a through-edit and then press the Delete or Backspace key.

Right-click (Windows) or Control-click an edit point and choose > Join Through Edits from the context menu.

To remove entire clips, select one or more clips in the sequence and press Delete.

Lift and paste frames

You can remove or lift frames from a specified area of one or more tracks in a sequence, leaving a gap in their place. You specify the area with
sequence In and Out points. If only a part of a clip appears between the sequence In and Out points, that part will be lifted from the sequence
while the rest of the clip will remain. You can then paste the lifted frames anywhere in a sequence.

1. Use the controls in the Program Monitor to specify sequence In and Out points.

2. In the Timeline, click the headers of the tracks from which you want to lift frames to target them.

3. In the Program Monitor, click the Lift button

.

The frames that are lifted are placed on the system clipboard.

4. Click the header of the track into which you want to paste the lifted frames to target it.

5. Move the playhead to the location where you want to paste the lifted frames.

6. Select Edit > Paste.
