does anyone have their keyboard remapped to look like AVID?
I want to remap my FCP keyboard to mimic the AVID keyboard setup. Has anyone done this already, and can give me the keyboard layout preference file, so I don’t have do it key by key?

Actually, I’ve remapped the Avid keyboard to mimic the FCP setup.
How times have changed.

There’s been many threads about this remapping topic.
I think the general consensus from those having worked with FCP for a long time is: DO NOT try to remap the FCP keyboard to mimic an Avid. When I first switched, I confess that I remapped by keyboard. Then, as I became more familiar with the “logic” behind FCP’s key arrangement, I realized that I was only slowing my adoption of this new language (FCP). So, now, my advice is DON’T DO IT! Better, buy an color coded keyboard with all the new keys and just look down until you learn them.
This is much like trying to learn a foreign language. The best way to do it is by immersion. The longer you spend trying to “translate” the longer it will take to learn.
