• Adjust the speed of your clip or freeze a single frame: Version 2.0 adds the ability to individually adjust the speed of your clips. If you need a segment to last a little longer, or want to demonstrate a time-lapse of your screen recording, you'll find the new high-quality video & audio speed adjustments a powerful addition to your toolbox. Version 2.0 also lets you freeze a single frame of your video, to adjust to the pace of the audio, for example.

• Productivity: New keyboard shortcuts for resizing the timeline, zoom in and out, nudging clips and time overlays all make for a streamlined timeline. More context sensitive menus, support for the multiple selection of media sources and new track-pad gestures will keep you editing faster than ever.

Audio Waveforms

• ScreenFlow will now visualize the waveforms of any content with audio in your presentation (including QuickTime based media), making it easy to find peaks, remove coughs, pauses and other slip-ups.

Markers
