Maybe sometimes an improvement but nothing compared to real controllers.” Watching people adapt MIDI controllers to apps not designed for them seems clumsy to me. “Until you use a well laid out ergonomic controller with dedicated self labeling buttons and an awesome jog shuttle, you poor keyboard, mice and even pen/tablet editors just don’t know how much more comfortable, fun and fast properly designed controllers are.

Until you use a well laid out ergonomic controller with dedicated self labeling buttons and an awesome jog shuttle, you poor keyboard, mice and even pen/tablet editors just don’t know how much more comfortable, fun and fast properly designed controllers are. I am so looking forward to using the Fairlight controller and mixer panels with Resolve 14 however.

I had just swapped from using CS6 as a tool with Resolve to just finishing in Resolve and doing basic editing so I never got the software to make it happen. Not many people know that Premiere can be controlled by the Fairlight Xynergi controller. I asked Fairlight at one stage if they were interested in bridging their control hardware with an NLE. With Resolve, I have been using the Tangent and although it is not as well laid out as the Tangent implementation in Color, it sure beats grading with a mouse. After the jog accuracy of the Fairlight though, the jog wheel was sloppy. With Color I then bought the Tangent Wave which made grading a whole lot faster and more accurate, as well as ergonomically better. The jogging was hopeless but having a few extra dedicated buttons helped a bit. I tried various things like the Contour Shuttle. I still feel the same about all NLEs driven by ASCII keyboards and mice. When I went back to grading I started with FCP4.5, I immediately thought the keyboard mouse interface was just awful. My DAWs of choice, dSP and then Fairlight were built around custom hardware controllers and mixers. Ideally I would love for Keyboard Maestro to directly recongize these buttons and allow me to switch macro groups for the buttons directly so I didn't have to maintain two softwares as I switch from computer to computer.I’ve had control surfaces where possible for decades. I really miss a lot of things about the version 1 shuttle pro software though the new one does have some new benefits though it lost more funcationality than it gained IMO. I set up my bottom left button (Shuttle Pro 2 button 12) to switch between settings that way depending on the workflow I am in it will switch between different macro groups.
That way you get several layer of actions out of the buttons. Name the macros with numbers to have further subgroups for actions if you need to go deeper.

I would like to just be able to sync my setting from Keyboard Maestro as I go from room to room and not constantly have to update export and import using Shuttle Pro's settings as well when I go from studio room to room.Īnother idea since I am so allergic to the mouse is to set the macro group to "Always Active" and then asign the top 9 buttons to numbers 1 - 9 and use the bottom 4 buttons to open different Keyboard Maestro conflict pallets. Is it possible to have Keyboard Maestro access the buttons directly without having to manage key commands in two different places? This was another one of those QuicKeys things that was kind of nice. Using this technique, I've basically quadrupled the number of programmable buttons on my ShuttlePRO - even more if I want the palettes to get longer. So basically, I click a button with a finger with my left hand, move the mouse just slightly with my right hand, click a mouse button, and that's all it takes! My hands never have to move to the keyboard. So when I click the button on my ShuttlePRO that is mapped to F2, a short palette appears directly under my mouse with 3 or 4 items in the palette. I set up a KM palette group with 3 or 4 macros in it (to keep it short), and I configure it like this: So my general workflow is to put my right hand on my mouse, and my left hand on my ShuttlePRO v2:Įven though the ShuttlePRO has a lot of programmable buttons, I still end up wishing I had more. There's a lot you can do in FCPX with keystrokes, but ultimately, editing videos is usually a mouse-intensive activity. When I am editing videos using Final Cut Pro X (FCPX), I try to keep my hands off the keyboard as much as possible.
