3:04 Pressing "T" will make your life easier (and your editing faster). Give it a try if you haven't found that out yet. Also, when you delete a selected clip, the timeline should automatically merge with the other clip (l don't know why yours doesn't) 3:12 A friend of mine swears for the "Speed Editor" but l personally think it's not for me. Thanks for taking the time to make the video!
Yes I agree with cozyjetlag. I have seen heaps of videos re Speed Editor but this one is so cleanly stated and laid out. All the facts are visible/understandable in a giffy. Thx Victor
Great demonstration of all the features and how to use it. I enjoyed this video so much better than that other guy who kept rambling on camera how he couldn't find proper instructions on how to use it (turns out it was in Chapter 49 of the Reference Manual).
The fact that it is delivered with DVR Studio makes me hesitate a lot. I mean, I don't need it that much, but it seems very comfortable and optimized as well. And yeah for portability it seems even better than my MX Keys (full size), which I still use for my desktop so no waste in any mean. Still hasitating, but I might give it a shot. It depends on how fast I'll be able to have a BM camera (which also includes DVR Studio, which I begin to really need). Great review anyway ! Thanks
@@victor.melchorfilm I didn’t see that !!! I’ll check out NOW lol I won’t buy it because I chose the Fujifilm XH2, but maybe in a year when I’ll have the money to have two cameras…
Love Resolve and my speed editor, but it's baffling that you can't ripple trim start/end to playhead (q/e in most software). You can custom map q/e on your normal keyboard to this function but the speed editor still takes 2 keystrokes and the wheel to do what a single press of q or e can do on your regular keyboard. Why they refuse to let you remap buttons on the editor is beyond reasoning. Also would be really nice if they added HUI or OSC support to allow it to be used with other software (i.e music production) like has been standard with other brands for many years. I find the closed eco-system quite infantilizing, disrespectful and counter-productive.
How do you do that if you press RIPL DEL you delete the clip below playhead and both clips on the left and right side connect automaticaly together. If I press RIPL DEL I get a empty gap between clips and I have to drag and connect them with mouse.
Thanks for watching! Yes I have actually had a similarly issue, the way to bypass that is to make sure your speed editor and davinci are both up to date and also closing and re opening davinci fixes that issue for me
Ah man sorry to hear that :/One trick I found super helpful even when I don't use the speed editor is keyboard customization! just search "keyboard customization" in the help tab above, and configure your B key to blade, and make Q and W Start to Playhead and End to Playhead. This will basically make your keyboard a mini speed editor I've actually been using those keys a ton
Thanks Aaron! Once you toss your video clip in with the lavalier audio file, select both items right click and you can sync audio by waveform. After that delete the scratch audio, and link your lav audio with video clip then you’re good to go!
I don't agree - the build quality feels pretty good. The only thing missing is clutch on the jog wheel. I've been using it for about 6 months. I haven't noticed the separation of the top and bottom sections. That doesn't sound good.
A great video, thank you. I'm wondering if you can use the speed editor in conjunction with the new easier way to create favourites from in and out points, do you know if this is possible? The reason I ask is sometimes I don't want to dump all of my footage on the timeline, I want to select the call parts in a favourites and then order those in a way that will make better sense and work better than perhaps the order that dumping on the timeline would create. I appreciate you're a busy boy, but if you know about this new favourites functionality, I'd welcome your thoughts.
Hey thanks so much for watching! I’m not familiar if you can use the speed editor with favorites but this video may potentially have your answer! ua-cam.com/video/SRYSwdN8xaI/v-deo.htmlsi=t2HtVVa34LmHA5de hope this helps!
@@victor.melchorfilm i used to have a Editor’s Keys Avid Media Composer keyboard and a Editor’s Keys Final Cut Pro X Keyboard and a Premiere Pro keyboard skin….. nowadays I have customized all 3-4 keyboards into my own set of shortcuts with one hand on the mouse and one hand on the keyboard… I zoom into the timeline with 2, out with 1, and Zoom to sequence with the ‘ tilde key next to 1 , and most functions are on the left side of the keyboard now so I can easily reach them with one hand. But what you did with the jog wheel and buttons I do with J, K, L and I edit with I, O, P (ripple delete clip/section) as those keys are right above j k l and such shortcuts
Hi thank you for this video, really helpful. Can I use this tool for other than speed-cutting? for e.g., adding Video transitions, effects or titles etc?
Hi, thanks for the video :3 I have a question about the included USB cable. Is it USB-C to USB-C or is there any USB-A? Because I would need to buy some cable or adapter in time to use it on my Computer if both sides are USB-C.
You can do similar things with keyboard shortcuts in premiere pro. See my comment to my own comment above. J K L and I O P (extract) or you could buy the “Loupedeck live” and use one of the knobs as the jog wheel (I have that too)
What type of videos do you typically edit? Let me know!

Hey thanks for watching and thanks for the tips as well! Definitely, it’s not for everybody but so far it’s helped speed up my workflow a bit!

Hey thanks so much Geoffrey I really appreciate it! 🙏

Hey thanks Michael I really appreciate it!! Yeah some videos take like 10-15 minutes to actually get to the point haha!
bro I saw a lot of those speed editor videos but yours helped me the most! finally a good one ha!
Love how you put this review together! Great shots and great info 🔥
Thanks so much!! Looking forward to trying out track club as well 🙌
@@victor.melchorfilm We would love that! Sending you an email :)
Only seeing how fast the basic cutting pprocess is I will definetly order mine soon! Thx
Yes It’s really helped speed up my workflow! Thanks for watching and I’m happy to help 🙌

Hey thanks for watching! Definitely check out the new 6k full frame they released if you haven’t got a BM camera yet!
@@victor.melchorfilm I didn’t see that !!! I’ll check out NOW lol

An alternative or substitute for Speed Editor may be Goodkeypad
Nice!

I just want an ON/OFF switch.
Honestly that'd be cool, esp since it doesn't turn off until after you close davinci
Great video, I think you should hit us with that full tutorial now 😁🙏🏽
Hey thanks so much I really appreciate it! I’ll definitely have to as I get more experience with the speed editor as well!
How do you do that if you press RIPL DEL you delete the clip below playhead and both clips on the left and right side connect automaticaly together. If I press RIPL DEL I get a empty gap between clips and I have to drag and connect them with mouse.
That's one of the features that is really helpful in the cut page!
Very good video man! big up!
Hey thanks for watching Mario! 🙏
Thanks for the video. Can you use the speed editor at all on the Edit tab? Like for scrolling through the video track?
You can scroll through the tab, but majority of the functions are optimized for the cut page currently!
Great jump-start tutorial!
Any idea of why when I hit RIPL DEL it delete all the timeline? I'm in the cut page and doing exactly what are you doing...
Thanks for watching!
Yes I have actually had a similarly issue, the way to bypass that is to make sure your speed editor and davinci are both up to date and also closing and re opening davinci fixes that issue for me
I didn't do enough research and bout the license with reviewing this. So pissed now. Could have saved a lot of money.

Nice video bro! How did you link your external audio with your video so that it’s being cut as well?
Thanks Aaron! Once you toss your video clip in with the lavalier audio file, select both items right click and you can sync audio by waveform. After that delete the scratch audio, and link your lav audio with video clip then you’re good to go!
@@victor.melchorfilm cool! Thanks for the response bro.
Nice video, but the build quality doesn't seem to be up to scratch.
I haven't really tried other editing keyboards, but this one actually feels really nicely built in my opinion!
I don't agree - the build quality feels pretty good. The only thing missing is clutch on the jog wheel. I've been using it for about 6 months. I haven't noticed the separation of the top and bottom sections. That doesn't sound good.
It's actually quite nice and substantial.

@@victor.melchorfilm thank you for taking the time out to respond, much appreciated and best wishes to you and yours.
@@Coatsey007 Of course, happy to help!!
I like it however I use and teach PP, FCP and Resolve and have customized keyboard shortcuts in all to to that similarity and super fast.
Thats really cool! What kind of keyboard?
@@victor.melchorfilm i used to have a Editor’s Keys Avid Media Composer keyboard and a Editor’s Keys Final Cut Pro X Keyboard and a Premiere Pro keyboard skin….. nowadays I have customized all 3-4 keyboards into my own set of shortcuts with one hand on the mouse and one hand on the keyboard… I zoom into the timeline with 2, out with 1, and Zoom to sequence with the ‘ tilde key next to 1 , and most functions are on the left side of the keyboard now so I can easily reach them with one hand.

@@tobiaslofi That's super cool!! I'll have to try out some keyboard shortcuts on my laptop as well!
Hi thank you for this video, really helpful. Can I use this tool for other than speed-cutting? for e.g., adding Video transitions, effects or titles etc?
Thanks for watching! I believe for adding transitions but effects and titles I don’t think you can with the speed editor
@@victor.melchorfilm ok thank you.
Great video, thanks! Liked and subbed ;)
Thanks Kristian I really appreciate it and I'm glad you liked the video! 🙌
Can this be used for multicams? I don't see multiple angles on this video, so I'm wondering if this works for multiple cameras
I believe it does work with multi cams I never tried it but this video seems to answer that question :) ua-cam.com/video/MuA93AJVIgg/v-deo.html
Hi, thanks for the video :3
I have a question about the included USB cable. Is it USB-C to USB-C or is there any USB-A? Because I would need to buy some cable or adapter in time to use it on my Computer if both sides are USB-C.
Of course, I'm happy to help! :) both sides are usb-c so you will need an adapter if you only have usb a but you can find them fairly cheap online!
Okay, good to know, thank you :D
Is it possible to use with Adobe Premiere Pro?
Unfortunately not, as of now it’s exclusive to davinci resolve!
How did you get black magic to send you one of these for free?
They found my channel and saw that I do gear reviews and tutorials and reached out!
@@victor.melchorfilm that’s super cool!!
Quick question: can this speed editor work with other editing programs? I currently use Movavi.
Hey Salrie! Unfortunately it's only compatible with DaVinci Resolve
@@victor.melchorfilm Ah that's ok. Thank you for answering my question. :)
@@Salrie-Antlerhorn No problem!
Does this work for premiere pro
It doesn’t, but I’d definitely recommend switching to davinci as it’s a much better editing software in my opinion!
@@victor.melchorfilm THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK
