cinemasetfreeEditor personalities
Choose your NLE and the shortcuts, trim behaviour and segment-drag semantics all follow that application's factory defaults. Premiere is the default. The setting follows your account, not the machine.
The four
| Personality | What you get |
|---|---|
| Premiere Pro | The house default. Premiere’s factory keyboard and its trim and drag semantics. |
| Final Cut Pro | Final Cut’s bindings and its magnetic-timeline-flavoured behaviours. |
| Avid Media Composer | Avid’s keyboard, including its distinct approach to trim modes. |
| DaVinci Resolve | Resolve’s edit-page bindings and behaviours. |
Factory defaults, including the missing keys
Each personality reproduces its application’s factory defaults, not an improved version of them. Where an application has no binding for something, neither does CinemaCutter. A missing key is part of how an editor feels, and synthesising one would make the personality subtly wrong in a way that’s worse than an absence.
Personalities are data, not forks: the same editor, reading a different keymap and a different behaviour profile. So a fix or a feature lands in all four at once.
The choice roams with your account, so the editor on the desktop app and the editor in a project tab behave identically. It falls back to local storage when offline.
