Re: After a year has perception of FCPX changed?

[Jeremy Garchow] "HS"Don't even know what "linked slection off" is" Say what??? Dude, you'll love it."

Just tried it and yes it's very handy. Here I've been manually unlinking for years and this was under my nose all the time.

Just to elaborate, once I'm past the assembly stage I never use linked clips. Even with linking on, after you cut a clip into different multicam angles only the first cut stays linked to the longer audio underneath. I can't imagine a scenario where it is useful to keep that sort of L cut linked, and it's a PITA when you want to add a video dissolve and now suddenly you have an audio dissolve as well, or when you want to change audio sources and only later you realize you've changed video sources for some clip 20 seconds down the timeline without realizing it.

Anyhow, thanks for the tip, one less thing I have to do.
