Scanning picture... very cool tip!

[MIDI Life Crisis]

I'm putting this here because while it is useful to the average DP user, we music and sound-to-picture folks can really make use of this formula:

456+

It took a few minutes to figure out but holy crap, this is going to save me a lot of mousing around.

Hit and hold the numeric 4 key. Instant fast rewind. Now the numeric 5 key -> slow motion rewind. Numeric 6 -> slow forward. Numeric + (you guessed) fast forward.

For placing scene and other markers this is a Godsend! I sometimes have 50-100 or more markers in an hour or two hour silent film. Placing those now is a breeze. Find the spot, then hit CTL-m to place my marker. No mouse needed.

If you are in pause, you return to pause. In play, you return to play.

Loving it! Genius programming!

Thanks MLC! I'm working on an ADR project right now and this will come in very handy.

I have been using this for years (I used something similar with Opcode Vision) - so I kinda thought everyone knew this - I use full stop to return to the marker and 3 to record - and so on....

Just finished the ADR session. Been working since 8am with a couple of short breaks. Your tip sure did come in handy! Thanks again, MLC.

There's a picture on pg. 52 in the DP7 User Guide that shows what the rest of the keys do. I use them all the time.

It's amazing how much we forget over time. Then there's the fact that some of us old coots haven't re-read the manual since DP2. It's good to have reminders sometimes.

Reminder to self...
