Mapping 3 items to my keyboard in MC 7?
Hello,
New AVID Editor here- FCP 7 guy – but was wondering if I could choose one button on my Keyboard for V1, A1&A2 and another button for V2, A3 & A4?
I know numbers 7,8,9, etc. work but I usually do my A-Roll in V1, A1 & A2 and V2, A3 & A4 for B-Roll and would like to keep it going that way. To simply hit one button and select/deselect only certain tracks would be ideal.
Again I am new to AVID and just used the default buttons in FCP 7 so IF this can be done Please let me know.
Thanks All!
Lee.

Dont think Ive ever seen or heard of any way of mapping this type of multi function to any 1 key (ie V1 A1 A2 to 1 keystroke)

i use a G13 for this type of mapping. (build your own macros and assign them keystrokes)

The G13 is an older model device from Logitech. It has about 4 rows of buttons, with each row having about 8 buttons. (Mine is at work right now, so cant count the buttons). It also has 3 available “sets” of buttons. Basically you get around 70 or so buttons you can program with macros. Your macro can be anything you can imagine doing with a keyboard. (Multi keystrokes with an unlimited amount of presses can be recorded) In your instance you would go to program mode, press your desired hot keys and stop the recording. I use it more for Resolve than Avid, but i do have a few items programmed into it for Avid.
I think they run about 60 or so bucks.
