Additional Timeline display options There are several new display options for the Timeline in the Timeline Options tab of the User Preferences window, including: • Show Duplicate Frames: Select this option to mark clips that are used more than once within a single edited sequence. Colored bars appear at the bottom of the clip's video item in the Timeline if that clip has been used more than once. You can adjust the parameters that determine when duplicate frames indicators appear in the General Preferences tab. • Show Audio Controls: Select this option to display the mute and solo buttons to the left of each audio track in the Timeline. By default, these controls are hidden. Audio controls can also be displayed using the Audio Controls button in the Timeline. • Video and audio keyframe editor: The keyframe editor shows you keyframe graphs for motion effects or parameters of filters applied to clips in your sequence. These graphs are identical to those found in the keyframe graph area of the Motion and Filters tabs in the Viewer. You can edit keyframes in the keyframe editor using the Selection and Pen tools. The keyframe editor can only display the keyframe graph of one effect parameter at a time. • Video and audio speed indicators: Speed indicators show you the speed of clips in your sequence using tic marks. The spacing and color of these tic marks indicate the speed and playback direction of your clips. The speed indicators of clips in the Timeline update in real time as you make variable speed adjustments to clips in your sequence, showing you exactly how you're altering a clip's timing. There are no useradjustable controls in the speed indicator area. Audio Outputs tab The Audio Outputs tab contains a list of presets that allow you to define the number of audio output channels that are available to your sequence via external audio interfaces connected to your computer. The selected audio output preset is automatically assigned to all new sequences and projects you create. Each sequence in your project has its own individual audio output settings. After a sequence has been created, any future changes to its audio output settings must be made in the Audio Outputs tab of the Sequence Settings window. Default location of Easy Setup files By default, the files for Easy Setups you create are stored in the following location: /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Custom Settings. New location for third-party presets To install third-party preset files or use preset files that you've moved, you must drag the desired preset files to the following folder: /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Plugins. The next time you open Final Cut Pro, the presets will be available in the Audio/Video Settings window. Preface New Features in Final Cut Pro HD 19
