Edit by transcript
Select words in the transcript and press Delete: they’re cut from the video with a soft fade. Click a struck word to bring it back.
What it is
Studio writes out what you said, word by word, on your Mac. Then you cut the video like a document: select words and press Delete, and that part of the video is gone, with a soft fade at the cut.
Cut words stay in the transcript, struck through, so nothing is lost. Click one to bring it back. Your cuts are kept when the auto edit runs again.
How to use it
Open the transcript
In Studio’s editor, click Transcript in the toolbar, or use the Edit by transcript row in the Edit tab.

Cut them
Press Delete (or click Cut). The words are struck through and that part leaves the video.
