Chapter 1 Introducing Aurora Edit LD
Tour of the Aurora Edit LD Keyboard
With Aurora Edit LD, you use a regular keyboard that you use with your PC. Another
Grass Valley product, Aurora Edit, uses a color-coded keyboard to allow faster
editing than using a mouse allows. Some of these color-coded key functions are
available in Aurora Edit LD.
While you can access Aurora Edit LD functions with the mouse, you may want to use
the keyboard for faster editing. The keyboard is divided into these areas:
Group of Colored Keys Description
Dark purple Set and control Mark In and Out Points.
Light purple Act as deck controls for playing sequences.
Blue Activate corresponding Aurora Edit LD tools.
Light Blue Zoom the view in the Timeline and select clip tracks.
Brown Select different edit modes and copy marked footage to the Timeline.
Avocado Green Control movement within a clip.
Bright green Send open sequence to a destination, perform fine tuning editing functions.
