Keyboard Shortcuts, enabling


Good Morning Audio!
This morning we learn how to enable keyboard shortcuts… its easy! Pro Tools allows you to “focus” your keyboard shortcuts into one of three different windows within the program. You can focus the keyboard onto the “clip list”, the “groups” pane or within the “track view” or “edit window”. For editing clips with single key shortcuts you’ll want to click on the box labeled A/Z on the top right hand corner of the ‘track view” view or “edit window”.
