Performing an Insert with Transition Edit
The insert with transition edit is a quick way to do an insert edit that includes the default
transition between your new source clip and the clip before it in your edited sequence.
When you first install Final Cut Pro, the default transition is a 1-second cross dissolve. For
more information on how to choose a new default transition, see
An insert with transition edit is exactly the same as an ordinary insert edit, but it places
the default transition into your sequence, centered on the edit point.
