Creating split edits
When audio clips are linked to video clips that don’t overlap, cross-fading the audio clips is
more complex than an audio-only cross-fade. The audio clips linked to video clips cannot
be dragged to overlap if the audio clips are on the same track, but you can move the audio
clips onto different tracks. The clip’s video and audio components need to be unlinked so
that you can move or trim them independently.
Cross-fading audio linked to video is useful when performing a split edit, in which a clip’s
video and audio components start or end at different times. In one version of a split edit,
called an
L-cut
, the audio Out point is later than the video Out point, so that you can
continue playing a video clip’s audio after the next video clip’s In point. Another kind of
split edit is an
audio lead
, called a
J-cut
, which you use when you want an audio/video clip’s
audio to start playing before the video In point.
