They are located just above the in and out keys, so are easy to locate by feel. The edit functions are intelligent and use the 'smart indicator' in the timeline to work out where to insert, so most of the time customers don't need to place in or out points in the timeline to do an edit. Then customers can change the source tape back to the whole bin by pressing the escape key.Įditing with a keyboard is different to editing with a mouse, so the cut page editing functions have been upgraded to take advantage of the speed of a keyboard. The in and out points can also be used to focus the source tape. Once the in and out points are set, just reach their fingers up to the edit function buttons to perform the edit. Customers can simply scroll along with the search dial and place in and out points anywhere customers want. That's perfect for two handed editing where users are using their right hand for transport control and their left hand is placing in and out points and performing edits. After the edit the viewer will stay in the source tape so customers can move to the next shot faster.Įntering in and out points is the most used function in editing, so the speed editor keyboard includes large in and out point buttons that customers can easily locate by feel. Plus, the current clip is highlighted live in the bin. Simply push the source button and use the search dial to scroll through all their media. Now the cut page has a modern version of the videotape and it's called the 'source tape'.

However old tape based linear editing had the advantage of all media being played from a videotape, so customers could simply fast forward and rewind to see all their shots. That's too slow for work such as TVCs, news, promos and training videos.

Traditional edit software uses thousands of clips to organize their media, so customers need to constantly click and drag clips to edit. This means the editor can work much faster because, unlike a mouse, the DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor has a control for each edit function and can perform multiple tasks at the same time. The DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor, a new keyboard for DaVinci Resolve's cut page that allows a new and dramatically faster editing solution that's a combination of integrated hardware and software.
