Re: [FCP-L] Was Murch, now Avid/FCP

Did you try this? You could test it in a minute. It does not take you to the out point. It will take you to the next edit or the previous edit just like the up and down arrows, but it does not go to the out point of a clip.

AFAIK there is no function in FCP that can be mapped to do this.

All the best,

Tom
