Jump to next track - keyboard shortcut ?
 

After years of doing my orchestral arrangements in Logic, I finally decided to give it (another) try in Protools.
Unless I'm missing something, I can't see a way to jump to the next track/prev with a keyboard shortcut (without having a control surface) ?

Anyone ?

In Keyboard Focus ( Option/Command/1) You can use :/; (DOWN)and P (UP) to move to and from selected regions across tracks. Tab to move forward from region boundaries and tab + shift to select region. When cursor is on beginning boundary, you can Shift/Option/Return to select beginning to end of project.

Hope this helps:-)

Not quite.
What I'm trying to achieve, is actually selecting the prev/next track. Not jump between regions; let me clear my scenario :
I have created allot of midi tracks, each directed to a different articulation on other PC machines (running GigaStudio etc...). I now want to go thru my midi tracks with a keyboard shortcut. sort of what you would use the arrows in Logic....
To manually select each track with the mouse, is a real creative killer...
I am aware of the fact, that if one had a control surface, you COULD do that. but obviously - I am looking for a shortcut for those without a control surface ;)

Thanks

The shortcuts bradysound mentioned will do exactly what you want if you also have "link track & edit selection" activated (icon next to "link edit & timeline selection" and "mirrored midi editing" icons in the edit window).

Either that. Or you activate the Track Number under the Menu "View" and use the shortcut for selecting the track:

CMD+F and then enter the track number.

Thank you all.
Both methods seems to work.

Isn't command+F crossfade window?

Correct.
It was CMD + OPT + F

Ups,

my bad. It used to be Cmd+Option+G. But that was then used for region groups - and as noone actually cried out loud when they changed the shortcut, I think nobody actually uses the track number function. At least I don't know anyone who does.
