14 DAY TRIAL // Shotcut is a powerful video editor that happens to be open source and free. It's full of cool features, and the developers are constantly updating it. The latest version that was made available, 15.06, is not a big one, but it does feature a few worthy changes.
Shotcut hasn't been around for a long time, despite the version number that seems to indicate otherwise. In fact, the application uses the year and the month to indicate the version, in this case, it's 2015 and the month of June.
Anyway, the previous Shotcut release was a very important one, but the application needed a few more changes, and they have landed a month later.
According to the changelog, a new audio spectrum analyzer has been implemented, the audio Gain filter will now use dB and the log scale, a toggle button has been added to Lock a track, and Insert and Ripple Delete are now able to ripple across all unlocked tracks.
Moreover, the keyboard shortcuts have been modified to adjust the track height with Ctrl+- and Ctrl+=, and a number of other keyboard shortcuts have been added to the toggle track (Mute - Ctrl+M, Hide - Ctrl+H, and Lock - Ctrl+C).
You can download the latest ShotCut 15.06 from the official website, but you might also be able to find it in various repositories.
