It feels just like holding the timeline in your hand! Trim keys allow the search dial to be used for live trimming, which is faster because the search dial is larger and more accurate. Unlike a mouse, the machined metal search dial with soft rubber coating allows very accurate search and positioning of the timeline. You get physical controls that you can feel in your hands, making the experience much better than software only editing. The DaVinci Resolve keyboards have been designed in conjunction with the cut page to make editing dramatically faster. But you still get new features in the revised layout, such as a viewer button to allow instant change to full screen view, and it’s even possible to edit from the keyboard in full screen view!

Plus, you get JKL trimming when you want to do playback and trimming via the keyboard and not the search dial. All the standard edit modes are included on the main keyboard. However you still get all the traditional editing features for both the cut and edit pages in DaVinci Resolve, so the core QWERTY part of the keyboard still operates in a familiar way. The new DaVinci Resolve Editor Keyboard also includes a revised QWERTY key layout that’s been updated using feedback from professional editors.
