Next Generation Editing Experience
The DaVinci Resolve keyboards have been meticulously designed to work seamlessly with the cut page, revolutionizing the editing process by making it significantly faster and more intuitive. By providing physical controls that users can feel in their hands, these keyboards enhance the editing experience far beyond software-only editing. Unlike a traditional mouse, the machined metal search dial, complemented by a soft rubber coating, enables precise search and positioning within the timeline, mimicking the sensation of actually holding the timeline in your hand. Furthermore, the inclusion of trim keys allows the search dial to be utilized for live trimming, offering a faster and more accurate alternative to traditional methods. Editing and trimming with the search dial introduce users to a whole new way of working, defining DaVinci Resolve as the next generation of editing tools.
Three Models to Choose From
DaVinci Resolve presents users with three distinct models of keyboards, each tailored to specific editing needs. The DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor offers a compact design with a large search dial and essential editing keys, enabling wireless use for enhanced portability. In contrast, the DaVinci Resolve Replay Editor is specifically crafted for multi-cam editing tasks in news cutting and live sports replay scenarios, providing rapid camera selection and editing capabilities. Lastly, the DaVinci Resolve Editor Keyboard offers a full-sized, premium metal QWERTY layout, featuring a metal search dial with clutch, along with extra edit, trim, and timecode keys, suitable for flush mounting installation.
Search Dial Control for Precision Editing
The inclusion of a search dial in the DaVinci Resolve keyboards elevates the editing experience by establishing a physical connection to the edit that surpasses the functionalities of a typical computer mouse. The search dial's machined metal design not only offers a weighted feel but also enables rapid movement along the timeline. More than just a navigation tool, the search dial doubles as a live trimming mechanism – a simple press of a trim button transforms the search dial into a large adjustment knob for real-time, precise trimming, a feature that quickly becomes indispensable once experienced.
Intelligent Keyboard Edit Modes for Effortless Editing
The keyboard edit modes featured in DaVinci Resolve have been intelligently crafted to leverage the speed and efficiency of keyboard editing. Enhanced functions like Smart Insert eliminate the need to switch to the timeline by smartly locating the nearest edit point, simplifying the editing process. Options like Append to End facilitate rapid editing by adding clips seamlessly to the timeline, while Ripple Overwrite enables quick shot replacement and adjustments to timeline durations. With features like Close Up, Place on Top, and Source Overwrite, the editing workflow becomes more streamlined, allowing users to perform complex editing tasks with ease.
Search Dial Live Trimming for Precise Cuts
The DaVinci Resolve keyboards offer a high-quality search dial that enhances the precision and speed of trimming shots. By transforming the search dial into a trim control, users can select various trim modes with one hand and adjust trims with the other, resulting in a fast and accurate trimming process. The smart indicator in the timeline ensures users are informed of the edits being made, facilitating a seamless editing experience. This innovative approach to live trimming with the search dial introduces a whole new level of efficiency to the editing workflow.
