Multimedia editing requires generative models to interpret complex, compositional instructions and modify only the desired elements across modalities, a capability largely beyond existing systems. Current approaches are typically limited to simple, single-attribute edits within one modality, since diverse, high-quality editing pairs are hard to obtain, especially for cross-modal tasks where aligned audiovisual (AV) data is scarce. We present CrossEdit, a unified omni-modal editing model for images, audio, and video that performs AV movie scene edits zero-shot through cross-modal transfer. Our key observation is that complex instruction-following, once learned in any modality, generalizes to others. We exploit the additive nature of acoustic signals to procedurally generate large-scale audio editing pairs with compositional instructions, and show that fine-tuning on this synthetic data and self-supervised AV masked reconstruction, alongside a targeted set of curated cross-modal tasks, induces instruction-following that transfers zero-shot to unseen modality and instruction combinations. To evaluate this capability, we release CrossEditBench, a human-annotated benchmark of AV edits on movie scenes, and propose AV-FES, a metric that jointly scores instruction following and consistency. We show that our proposed techniques improve performance on zero-shot AV movie scene editing, while maintaining or improving performance on lip-synced speech editing and standard image, video, and audio editing benchmarks.
