Switching between two cameras in a multicam sequence is really cumbersome in Descript at the moment:
• ⌥ + B to split timeline
• Click video clip to select
• Click Multicam dropdown menu in "Clip Properties" right sidebar
• Select camera from dropdown
Repeat the above steps for EVERY single time you want to switch camera from Person 1 to Person 2 in an hour-long interview (dozens and dozens of times).
Premiere and Finalcut make this as easy as pressing "1" or "2" on your keyboard, in a multicam
Autopilot

Improve multi cam editing

It would be much better to have multiple scenes as options and then quickly select them by press of a button (and hotkey) as you can in Final Cut for example. Set up scenes once, edit quickly.
