Step 3: Edits (3-Point Editing)

Unlike drag-and-drop NLEs, Edius thrives on keyboard shortcuts. Here’s a short but powerful EDIUS 7 tip

• I and O set in/out points in the Source Player.
• F9 overwrites to the timeline.
• F10 inserts (ripple edit).
• Alt + Scroll wheel zooms in/out of the timeline.

Step 2: Ingest (Source Browser)

Use the Source Browser window. It looks like a file explorer but shows thumbnails of video files. You can right-click a clip and select "Add to Bin" or "Add and Transfer" (copy to a local folder). I and O set in/out points in the Source Player

System Recommendations (general)

• Multi-core CPU (quad-core or better), ample RAM (16 GB+ recommended for HD; 32 GB+ for heavy multicam/4K), a modern GPU supported by Edius for GPU-accelerated effects, and fast disk storage (SSD) for media and scratch files.
