Final Cut Pro 7 Tutorial - A Simple Shortcut For Editing Pics/Clips To The Music/Beat

This video shows you one way of editing pics or video to the beat. This video IS NOT a how to on how to time actions in a video to the beat. That is more advanced and takes you into a whole new world of timing and retiming. This is about timing your edits to the beat meaning your CUTS are edited to the beat not the actions in the clips.

how did you select just the audio?

[AppleShakeGuru]

@NakedJKid hold the option key and select it.

Awesome, however i would recommend showing the waveform in the timeline

[AppleShakeGuru]

@danonabouncycastle thats up to you. I didnt need the wave form because i was doing it by ear. Lots of people use the waveform but i just keep it off for tutorials lots of time to save on system resources.
