So why are you stuck using your hands?

FCP-X running on an iPad - with a small bluetooth keyboard in play - gives you a simple travel system that could do basic rough cuts incredibly well.

My wife is doing a rough cut of a string of interviews in FCP-X right now destined for a client window dub. That means opening each card, using I and O to mark very rough in and out points on each clip in the Event Library, hitting E to append each select to the magnetic timeline - and moving on.

It's super efficient. Much quicker than Log&Capture, drag to a timeline and trim the head and tail of each clip.

It's the kind of editing prep task where the magnetic timeline really shines.
