• Keep your editing flow tight and your work intact.

FAQs

Will scrubbing change my clip length or timing?

No. Scrub only shifts which part of the source video plays. Your clip stays the same length and in the same place on the timeline.

What's the difference between Scrub and trimming?

Trimming changes how long a clip is. Scrub changes which part of the source plays inside that clip, with no impact on length.

Can I scrub a clip after I've swapped it?

Yes. Scrub is the perfect pairing with Smart Bulk Swap when you want to fine-tune the moment after a quick swap.

Can I undo a scrub?

Yes. Use Undo to step back, or jump back into Scrub and reshift until it lands right.
