Default short cut key customisation fo time stretch?

Any one willing and able to take a look at the short cut key setting?

can you create a short cut for a specific tool now?

like a key for timestretch and a key for select object etc? ( i can sort of do it with keyboard Maestro ) but doing it inside protools would be great!


I'm on 21.12 and would like to move up if those things are working? dont have a lot of spare time but if it could do that I'd be motivated!

cheers

Near as I know PT doesn't do custom shortcut keys.

Yes, in 2022.4 you can make a custom keyboard shortcut for the TCE Trim Tool and all the other tools.

I'm also trying to make a better way to shift between timestrech and smart tool. But I'm having issues. I can't find a way to shift back to default smart tool, after using my custom SC for the timeshift-trimmer. Most optimal would be to just hold down a key to shift to the stretch tool, at the beginning and end of clips, but SC is the second best option and I still can't make that work in a satisfying way. Any ideas are much appreciated. :)

You can do a timestretch/Smart tool toggle key with Soundflow., either as a keyboard shortcut, Streamdeck key or on a surface (Apple/Android)



I'm not sure what functionality you get with the free Soundflow that's now included with PT, but if you go on their site in the 'how to' section someone will get you going.


I guess it depends what version of PT you have if Soundflow is included?

I do this with both a Streamdeck and via Eucon... oh and I also have it in Better Touch Tool.

Key command wise, you can string a macro together to go from the Smart Tool to change the smart tool to have the TCE active by entering,

Command 2 Command2

then to get back to the normal/standard smart tool with

Command 2 Command2 Command 2 Command 7

Hope that makes sense. (can happen instantly using a key macro).
