Morphology

recut = recut (transparent) = re + cut

The noun is a standard zero-derived use of the verb meaning the product or result of recutting.

Etymology

Recut as a noun comes from re- 'again' plus cut 'to cut', and it names a new version of a film, song, or work that has been cut again. That's why a recut is an edited version with changes from the original release.
