Avid Media Composer 6™ Support

JLCooper has converted all of Media Composer’s keyboard shortcuts into Built-In Commands..

In the JLCooper Avid keyset, the display is set to show button labels. The top row of App buttons is used
for selecting various windows or panels, and the second row is for choosing tools. In the second bank, the
top row is assigned the editing commands, Cut, Copy, Paste and Undo.

There is some room for customization. Many of Avid’s commands do not have keyboard equivalents, and
Avid leaves it up to the individual user to customize them using the Command Palette and the Keyboard
Settings panel. If you have added custom keyboard shortcuts to your Media Composer settings you will
probably want to add matching Keystroke commands to your Avid MCS5 keyset.
