10 Keyboard Shortcuts Worth Mapping

      10 Keyboard Shortcuts Worth Mapping


Search for these in the Keyboard Shortcuts window, then drag the command to the shortcut key you want to map it to. When finished, you can save your custom keyboard layout preset for future use.
1. Your first step after creating or opening a new sequence should be to check your Sequence Settings. Why not map a shortcut for it?
2. Just as Zoom to Sequence zooms you all the way out, Zoom to Frame will zoom you all the way in to the frame level. Mapping this to Ctrl+\ (Cmd+\ on Mac) is easy to remember if you already use \ for Zoom to Sequence.
3. If you cut a clip in two but don’t remove any frames, that’s called a through edit. Join All Through Edits will rejoin any through edits in your selection.
4. Adding keyframes for audio volume or video position can mean a lot of clicking with the mouse – unless you map the Add or Remove Audio/ Video Keyframe commands.
5. Show Audio Time Units lets you zoom in – and adjust edits – at the subframe level in your Premiere Pro sequence. Map this command, use it, and watch the time indicators at the top of the Timeline panel change. This is a lifesaver for music edits.
6. The Move all Video/ Audio Sources Up/ Down commands work on your source patching, at the far left of your timeline. With these you can easily control where your video and audio clips go, when you cut them into your sequence.
7. If your V1, A1, A2, etc. source patches get out of control, reset them with the Default Source Assignment command.
8. Paste Attributes (for Motion, Opacity, Effects, etc.) is mapped by default, but Remove Attributes is not.


9. Select Nearest Edit Point a Trim In/ Out, Select Nearest Edit Point as Roll, and Select Nearest Edit Point as Ripple In/ Out are indispensible for trimming faster. Instead of hovering over a cut with the mouse, you can instantly select the type of trim you need to do (regular, roll, or ripple). These work on all active tracks.
10. You can replace a clip in the Timeline with a new one from the Source Monitor or a bin, retaining any effects, animation and other adjustments you’ve made to the original clip in the Timeline. Replace with Clip From Source Monitor, From Source Monitor Match Frame, and From Bin are the replace edit commands you can map.
