Using Markers in Multiclips
Here’s another new marker feature in Final Cut Pro 7.
Another new use for markers is with multiclips.
Before creating a multiclip, you can review the individual clips you are about to edit. Add markers and marker comments. Assign colors to indicate something special about that marker.
Then, when you build the multiclip, the individual clip markers are retained in the multiclip. If a portion of a clip that contains the marker is edited into the final version in the Timeline, the marker appears as well.
You’ll find this tip useful if you use your markers for making notes about a particular portion of a clip.
