PRO TOOLS KEYBOARD SHORTCUT NEXT PLAYLIST PRO

This is very frustrating when I use Pro Tools without a C|24 - I know more keyboard shortcuts for Final Cut than I do Pro Tools. As a result, I know very few Pro Tools keyboard shortcuts.

I have become very reliant on the C|24 functions as I've only control surfaces with Pro Tools. Watch my video tutorial to see how I use my Avid C|24 File/Utility - Save, undo, redo and enter).

Then, whilst still holding down Option + Shift, hit the Return key and this will extend that all-track selection to the end of the session. To select everything to the end, hold down Option + Shift and click on the earliest clip you want to move, this will extend the selection vertically across all tracks. The last ones in my selection are when I need to select everything from a certain point to the end of the session, either to close up a gap or to create a gap to insert some content.

Option + Return takes you to the end of the session.Return takes you to the beginning of the session.Option + Tab moves the cursor to the previous edit or sync point.Tab moves the cursor onto the next edit or sync point.Others I use regularly are ones based around the Tab and Return keys.

I have the Keyboard Focus turned on and so my most regularly used shortcuts are R and T for zooming out and in on the timeline.
