Keyboard Selection of Clips

If Clip List Keyboard Focus is enabled, you can type the first few letters of a clip’s name and Pro Tools will automatically locate and select the clip in the Clip List.

To enable and use the Clip List Keyboard Focus:

1 Click the Keyboard Focus button in the upper right of the Clip List.

 

Clip List Keyboard Focus enabled

2 Type the first or first few letters of the clip to automatically locate and select it. Once a clip is located and selected, it can be dragged to a track.

Keyboard selection of audio clips locates clips based on their clip name, not on the names for their parent audio files or the volumes on which they reside.
