Fast Forward Through Timeline

AlanC wrote on 2/26/2004, 5:04 AM

Is it possible to fast forward/reverse play through the time line?

I found this a useful feature in Studio but haven't figured a way to do it in Vegas.

Can it be done?

yes you can by using the scrubbing keys J K L
L for fast forward
K for Pause
J for reviewing

press K with L for cueing forward
press K with J for cueing backward

Thanks Woofer,

I must get round to reading the manual one day (or week).

Scope for a keyboard overlay perhaps!

Grazie,

I don't know how you find them. (Well I suspect that you use the web but you know what I mean).

See the trouble is, you rarely use the keyboard in Studio. The only shortcuts I remember are Ctrl/Alt/Del which I used a lot!

If you'd rather use the mouse, there's also the scrub control -- it's the slider below your track list. Also, you can scrub (move quickly forward or backward) directly on the timeline itself using the mouse and your CTRL key..

See page 54 & 55 in the manual.

If you want to go real fast, use your mouse above the timeline like you are selecting a region. It will allow you to zoom through the timeline. Then just deselect the region when you are where you want to be.
