Keyboard Shortcuts to Move Quickly Between Clips

When color correcting one clip to match another, it’s helpful to quickly flip back and
forth between multiple edit points in the Canvas. This allows you to compare the clip
being color-corrected to the clip being used for reference on your external broadcast
monitor. Because your external broadcast monitor is showing you the most accurate
representation of your clips, this is an important process. By rapidly flipping back and
forth between the corrected clip and the reference clip, you can easily spot the true
differences between the clips.
