[@ArtyStuffWithShrikhar]

Can you Help me how to do a hand drawing a plain sheet of paper and reveal the final piece transition if possible would really appreciate it 🙏

[@brycewarriner3204]

Yes can you do a vfx tutorial though

[@MrBertWayne]

Hey Billy, do you narrate WrestlingWorldCC?

[@betonung]

Yes Please

[@hangoutwithsid]

Yes

[@joedesantis9271]

After moving from Premiere to Davinci, I must say this video is one of a few that helped ease my anxiety about the switch! Thank you so much for the info!

[@keithstallworth8593]

I liked and subscribed because you asked and kept it moving. People like it when you respect their time.

[@JohnBradford14]

"There are no shortcuts to success..." I consider "finishing one's work with enough time to enjoy the rest of one's day" to be a resounding success.

[@KatteNissen]

ive learned so much from your videoes!!! keep up the good work!😀

[@RussianPlus]

It’s not helpful to tell people what key YOU mapped it to without telling us the official name of the tool or the default key location. Wtf

[@samuelrajkumar4975]

Yet another valuable video..... Thanks Billy....and I also purchased the 'guide bundle' today...👍🏻.... I have to say I loved "All for His glory....1 Cor 10:31"....❤️

[@amigoimaginario4004]

Thanks for all the info!!

[@FoodfortheSubconscious]

Nice tips again! Thanks team, just what I was looking for.

[@OnTheSamePageTogether]

Yes do a video on the razor device! I just got mine set up and am loving it! I'm gonna download your list so that I can add what I'm missing to my razor device 🤓

[@BillyRybka]

Will do!! Let me know what you think about it!

[@charliecooper3030]

@@BillyRybka Still plan to do the Razer Tartarus single hand video? There a bunch of videos on how to use the Stream Deck and Loupedeck CT, but not too many getting into the actual real world usage of editing videos. They're mostly just going over the functions without actually showing the difference in speed of doing everything with shortcuts and even button macros. Speaking of, have you programmed any useful ones into the Tartarus? (Also, the click funnel link you used for the shortcuts download is trying to force people to sign up for their service now.)

[@marti_abernathey]

What would really be helpful is if you didn't call things like "razor" cut since not all shortcut keys are mapped the same. My default for Razor, for example, was Ctrl-B.

[@CRUZFILMS.]

good explanation of what could be used for shortcuts keys. video would have been great if you showed us where to find these in the "keyboard customization " settings lol feels like you forgot the second half of the video . thanks for the ideas though. struggling to find where to change the clip color customization =D

[@TimetoTalkwithYevgen]

Thank you Billy! And congrats with 100K

[@AntonKrall]

Yes, please make a video on how to made THIS video! That would really help.

[@expatbiker6598]

Another Billy special. Thank you sir

[@animediocrity8779]

Ok letting me download the shortcuts for free has earned you my subscription well played sir.

[@margotunger6936]

Thanks!!! Great video Billy! - BUT I'm new to DaVinci and just messed up my keyboard shortcuts!- Can I reset them??- can't find anything in the interface! Do you have any advice how to fix the problem??

Thank you for the tips

[@fivestarphotography]

You are totally awesome!!!

Your thumbnail guy is killing it! Nice work 😎👍

[@hangoutwithsid]

I'm just overwhelmed with the amount of help you put in this one video.. 🙏

[@Dronerdahl]

Your keyboard short cuts file is perfect and a time saver. Keep up the great videos. Thanks

[@SittingTheApple]

Hey man, I recently started creating content and have found your videos extremely helpful. Thank you for everything you do/have done (are you still making videos?)

[@TeamMalunggay]

I Think this might be the tutorial that I've been waiting for before I jump to Resolve, from using Vegas Pro for years now. I need my spacebar/s/d very easily

[@DirtzEdits]

You've just made my learning process even easier. I really appreciate that.

[@MaikKleinert]

Thanks bro, for all the fantastic shortcuts ;-) Keep up your amazing videos

[@markoboychuk]

Nice tips! One shortcut that I use ALL the time is "Z" to zoom into the timeline and "Shift+Z" to zoom out.

[@markokeskinen4322]

Just use alt+scroll wheel

[@shoe5672]

I'd love to learn how to edit a video like this one 👌🏻

[@commeunvelo]

THANKS!!! Awesome time saver :)

[@jimlafferty]

How do you add secondary shortcuts bound to a key you hit twice? Like your "M" example, double tapping to modify markers... thanks!

[@fateeversor]

this would save alot of my time tq bill

Thank you!! This what I've been searching for! omg you're my life saver dude. You deserve a lot of subscribers and I'm your new subscribers! cheers! mate. Greeting from Malaysia.

[@TailoredTechnique]

how do u edit a football season or multiple scenes to go back and remember each player

[@swaha55]

I am a little confused. Are you saying you changed the default short cuts to new ones that you like better? If so it would be nice if you showed how to change the default short cut to your new short cut/ Also I would like to create a short cut to have the playhead jump to the very beginning of the timeline and to the very end of the timeline. How can I do that?

[@WANNADOITALL]

I second this, also i guess you can jump to the head by pressing the up arrow key and to the end by pressing down arrow key.

[@marti_abernathey]

You first have to figure out what he's called something, in the DR world's lexicon. He called it a multi-layered "cut"", but it's using the razor tool. If you click on Davinchi Resolve in the toolbar, you'll see that there's a keyboard customisation tool that you can find what the actual bindings are, and what they're called.

[@ruelparyag9314]

Subscribed a while ago. Really helpful stuff here

[@kristaylor7119]

Hey Billy, what font, titles pack are you using. The titles are pretty cool in this video.

[@HariPsrajagriha]

Great 👍 Thanks Bro ❤️

[@tbmcqueen4259]

It would be helpful if you shared what the actual Resolve commands these correspond to. For instance, what you call "Default Transition" is "Add Transition," so if you search for "default," it won't come up. In order to set up your 'M' for "Marker" command, you have to search for "blue" or w/e color marker you want, (and granted that's Blackmagic's fault for not including menu/submenu titles in the search, but...) and I still don't know how to set up the 'MM' keystroke. Also, I went to download your settings file, and it says "Just type in your email and I'll send it..." but there was literally nowhere to enter an email address. Not sure what that's about. Anyway, these were good shortcut ideas! Thanks for sharing them.

[@JohnCena-jp4ee]

BILLY! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me a plugin like video copilot saber plugin but not for after effects but for da vinci, i trying my best to do the neon trace effect, please reply or make a video on this

Totally!!!

[@beatbox_bros]

3:30 this function is available in Premiere, its just not a default shortcut! Otherwise great video!

[@sikanorakzai80]

Love your videos

[@toolsontech]

This is a game changer for me, I'm a gamer, I should know that I want everything on the left side of my keyboard. Modified all my shortcuts based on this idea but using WASD as a movement base. Epic stuff. This little video probably just saved me days of my future life!

[@BBWinner48]

Great tuts, slowly switching from PP to DR17, is there an equivalent to "Automate to timeline" in DR17?..( been with PP since 1999, FYI).

[@GruberAG]

Will be nice cheat sheat in some graphic type for first help until remember all ;) Tnx for video!

[@dariuscitu7980]

Yeah man I would love to see your process for editing that! 2:06

Hey Billy, thank you so much bro! Editing became 30% easier with your shortcuts

[@eloyguisande]

Is there a way to change de Ctrl+wheel to zoom to JUST wheel? im so use to it on sony vegas, and seems SO much better to me. Thanks! (in edit tab)

[@BadRadBR]

I'm just getting to learn Resolve 18 Studio and I just want to check. Your video says 'Resolve 18' but you're actually using 'Resolve 17'. Are both versions the same?

[@CreativePhilosophy_]

I reeaaaallly wish Davinci could change speed ramps default to Retime Speed and not Retime Frame. That would save me so much time! Great list mate.

[@BillyRybka]

RIGHT! THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!

[@idginfinityduskgames6068]

Yeahh.. have the same problem

[@PeeJ_ENT]

Hey I would like to know which command in the keyboard customization preferences is the ripple cut controls you showed in shortcut 2

[@BillyRybka]

hey, its called ripple left to the playhead. You can download my presets and check them out and make your own :)

[@jsleger3404]

@@BillyRybka I'm on Mac and I don't see "ripple left to the playhead"

[@hangoutwithsid]

Thanks a lot

[@gizmobrain]

Hi Billy. I am unable to get the "Add Subtitle" shortcut working. Every subtitle I want to add, I right click on the track at the playhead and click on Add subtitle. Moving back and forth from keyboard to mouse is really frustrating while adding a lot of subtitles to my video. Is there a bug in the Ctrl + Shift + S add subtitle keyboard shortcut? Are you able to use it?

[@warrenbrotherstudios2166]

Cmd+ b also splits

[@aiyarose]

what do you mean when you say "I set it up as ESC, or I set it up as A" for example when I hit A nothing happens, to select all clips to the right. The shortcut I was using for that is ALT + Y ... so, my question is, is there a way to set your own shortcuts? And that is why a lot of these you mention don't work for me, because I didn't set it up like that? THANX

[@DmitrysGarage]

You have to edit them yourself, CTRL-ALT-K will let you edit the shortcuts. The problem is he sort of made up his own names for some of the functions so it may take a bit of hunting around to find the specific stuff you want to do.

[@aiyarose]

@@DmitrysGarage thank you for taking the time and explaining this! 😊

[@virtualcommunitytheatre]

This is going to save me a lot of time! Thank you so much for this wonderful video. Please keep sharing your great video editing tips!

Loved the level up mate, so stealing that 😂

Haha do you mean?

[@jeremiahcastro6334]

Shortcut #5 is actually in Premiere Pro as well, I used it all the time. In Premiere, it's called "Close Gaps".

[@jayco10125]

I have your s set you a key on my mouse next to my thumb, I have delete set to the other button next to my thumb, I have another button on my mouse that when I move the mouse to the right while holding the button to select everything to the right and same for the left when I move it left, I have the colours on my numbers as well and it helps to have RGB keyboard so I can see what colour is each etc. most of my other keybindings are very similar o you. Good video btw, keep up the good work.

[@BillyRybka]

Awesome man! Thats really great! I have the same things with my delete button and the Backspace button. they are both on my thumb! Thanks!

[@IKanFlyDrones]

What’s the font you use for the words that pop in and out. Thank you!

[@Rood67]

Pretty good video. Casey Farris did one like this, but he showed how to do the changes in the keyboard setup under DR preference. Because some of the things in the preferences are worded weird. The Q and W I’ve tried to set to a new keyboard preset, and change the default by adding these to Ctrl-Shift-[ and ] respectively, but they never work. S works great though. I have a Razer Nostromo that I was considering setting up to emulate the default keyboard shortcuts. The Nostromo has a wheel, and I was going to set that to J and L for replaying faster forward and reverse. Also, I use the Razer Hex (I think the newer model has a different name). This mouse has a side plate with seven buttons on it. I set this up for MMO gaming, to access game attacks on different toolbars along with the Nostromo. On my Hex, 1 is Shift, 2 Alt, 3 Ctrl, 4 Shift-Ctrl, 5 Shift-Alt, 6 Ctrl-Alt, and seven is for a game specific function but could be set up for a DR function. The Hex mouse wheel also registers left and right tilt. This is normally for scrolling up and down in a webpage or document. While writing this reply, I thought that would be good for jumping left and right to the previous or next cut point / b-roll / marker / etc instead of mousing up under the preview and clicking |>| By default Ctrl-M inserts a marker and opens the pop up window to change the info for the marker. Please consider your offer to show how you use these to speed up your work flow.

[@sorenballegaardmusic]

YES this is exactly what I need! That amazing shortcut - selecting forward! Life saver and time saved!!! Thanks 1Mill great inspiring videos!

[@darrenferony9769]

Billy is the Shepard guiding all of us to the Davinci Resolve promised land 🙌🏼 Seriously though man if you make a titles and text pack that would be incredible. No one is selling great modern text assets yet for Davinci. Your call out titles are good but they serve a very specific purpose. Peter McKinnon and Matti sell their motion graphics title packs for premiere pro and they are amazing but I haven’t found anything like that for Davinci. You helped me immensely in transitioning over to Davinci bro! Keep up the great work and seriously think about making a great motion titles text pack I think they would be amazing for Davinci editors!

[@Taytexas]

Jayaretv definitely already has some great modern text packs for alot of different situations

[@darrenferony9769]

@@Taytexas his packs don’t compare to Peter McKinnon’s. They are good but not great. Jay is great but the packs for other NLE’s are way better DR needs variety

[@Taytexas]

@@darrenferony9769 others been out for far longer and imo jararetv text and effects packs are just as quality and more customizable with the node format in davinci fusion page

[@darrenferony9769]

@@Taytexas personally not an expert in fusion and thats on me, Jay is great but I still think DR needs more creators to put out user friendly packs. It’s so much easier in premiere and final cut. I guess it’ll just take time. Billy can definitely make an amazing text pack I’m sure

[@Taytexas]

@@darrenferony9769 fully agree fusion needs more creators to unlock the full potential of the possibilities. Not much out there on specific needs.

basically moving the premier pro shortcut to davinci...would be good if you show the shortcut setting name, as some of them aren't exact the same as you said in the customization

[@NoxorionZ]

Do you know the name of the shortcut configuration to move between diferents timelines?

[@grahamcohen3850]

Best shortcut is jkl. I wouldn’t change those as they are pretty much standard. I do like some of these though. Great tips. Especially for the novice editor. One thing I would do though in your videos is to ensure you include the Mac shortcuts. All of these u mention are PC based. Never once did u mention cmd +. Also the Razor keypad u mention is PC only. You might want to let your viewers know that. If they take your word as gospel and go out and buy it and not check the sys rec’s on it they might be a tad upset if they are Mac users. Just reminding u not to forget the Mac peeps out there. Good video though. Keep it up.

[@BillyRybka]

As mentioned the reason why I changed it was so I dont have to move my hands around and have to look for JKL. Macs have a control key as well. I didnt realize that the razor keypad was only mac. thanks man!! really appreciate you telling me that stuff

[@alexandrumacedon291]

i think it's counter intuitive or better yet more confusing to add the commands for mac, they always confuse people. mac users should know their alternative commands, since mac is made by apple and is just 1 company, whereas windows is sold on all kind of pc's aka the rest.

[@rantonuccio]

[@ekphotography]

Any way of making a keystroke to automatic reduce speed to 40% ??? Please tell me there is, I hate haveing to right click, click retime and choosing some no normal % or dragging out my clip to 40%. I cannot believe this is not an option, specially when the proper % to slow down 60p clips is 40% and not the options like 50% in that drop down.. WTH? And how about removing all attributes from a Clip like in FCPX Shift command X? And in FCPX if I option click a whole category Like color or transform it select all this attributes I want. Not having to individually click each box in a section. Is that possible? Thanks!!
