Scrub Wheel in PT

[spock999]

I can`t figure out WHY Pro Tools use the wheel the way it does. In all the DAW that I tried so far, you turn the well it move, you stop moving it stop and it`s the same in forward or reverse. Why does PT need to make it complicated, I understand the scrub function and all that, but why not just default to a regular movement ?

Thanks

So what problem are you having with the scrub wheel? I can vari-speed scrub forwards and back, and switch it to variable speed shuttle mode. So what do you call "regular movement"?

Thanks Wizzoboy for the reply and sorry for the delay, bussy in the Studio

What I call "regular movement" is just a quick forward and backward movement to place the playhead where I need it like in Cubase. In ProTools If I just spin the wheel nothin append I need to click on SCRUB but then I get a really SLOW movement I don`t need to ear the sound I just need it to be QUICK and RESPONDING

Thanks again for your time

You need to use the wheel in Shuttle mode. An in-depth explanation of its' setting is on pages 621 to 624 of the reference manual.

And if none of the above helps, tell us exactly what you are using as a scrub wheel

Thanks for your time and help

I`m using a Mackie Control Original (See Pic) in both Cubase 9.5 and Pro Tools 2018 and all I need is the same basic fonction in Pro Tools that I get in Cubase

At thre moment without doing anything else then turning the wheel I get about 2.5 mesure on Evry turn EZ and fast on the other end in PT I don`t use it at all

Thanks again
