Most useful keyboard shortcuts.

[mlemos]

I was just re-reading the Windows Shortcuts pdf file and it's incredible how many there are.
I have used most of them before but not often enough to have them really sink into memory.

I have printed out the entire pdf before and hung it in the studio but it slowed me down because I spent too much time searching for the shortcuts.

So, what are the shortcuts that you guys use all the time?

Thanks,
Marc

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I think you meant WIN+CTRL+ALT.

A good one to remember is that WIN+ALT is the modifier for working with multiple selected tracks without having to group them.

A good undocumented one, is WIN+CTRL and click on the track name, mute, fader, pan fader in the edit window to change display modes.

My favourite.. or the one I use the most:

CTRL+Z

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">In PTLE 5.1.1 I use Ctrl-right click to inactivate plugs very handy to free the cpu.
Ctrl-left click is bypass.

Ctrl+1 (in numeric keypad)- Hide transport
3 (in numeric keypad) - Record

I seem to have developed a compulsive

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">thats why there is the auto save.
I have mine set for every 5 minutes, saving the last five sessoion saves separate... which is cool.

go to setup->preferences->operations.

you can set it to every minute if you'd like...

i have the MS Optical mouse which has 4 buttons + wheel. i have the far left button programmed to Ctrl+[ for zoom out and the far right button programmed for F5 for zoomer tool. it makes editing soooooo fast...

another favorite is Alt+Shift+3 for consolidate regions.

and also .1. for go to memory location (where 1 is the marker number).

then there is the all time favorite - in fact, the reason i bought PT - Space for play and Ctrl+Space for record... how much easier does it get? (i don't want to hear about the numeric keypad, ok?...)
