**UPDATE** - Toggling the timeline snapping is defaults to the "N" key, not to "S" like I had mentioned in the video. That is from my custom layout.

If anyone wants the notes:

Vertical scroll wheel - scroll wheel
Horizontal scroll wheel: command + scroll
Vertical Zoom (track size): shift + scroll
Horizontal Zoom: option + scroll

Arrow keys help move playhead
For a full second (shift + right arrow)
Down arrow: end of clip
Up arrow: Start of clip
To nudge a clip to the right by one frame: period
-To the left: comma
-To go five frames add shift plus period/ comma

Turn Snapping tool on and off by using S
Use snapping tool to move clip by a frame at a time

Trim mode: automatically moves clip so it puts it against where the edit was
To go back to regular mode (selection mode) - V

To enable or Disable Clips: D

Cut where playhead is: command + b
Ripple Delete: shift + delete
Ripple Trimp to right of playhead: shift+command+]
Ripple trim start to playhead: shift+command+[

To paste settings onto another clip, hit command+C then highlight desired clip to paste and hit Alt+V to paste specific attributes

Temporarily unlink clips: Option + Select

Use Auto Track Selector to turn off so all tracks don’t get impacted by edit

Select clips forward one track: Y
Select clips behind playhead one track: Command Y
Select clips forward all tracks: option + Y
Select clips back all tracks: option + command + Y

Retime Controls: Command + R then move playhead where you want and drag cursor to it
R = change clip speed

Some cool functions are:
1) Power Bins. They are really powerful. Allowing you to put your frequently used media into it, like memes, music, and sound effects. In a new project, you then pull the folders into the project master folder and are now able to search everything. It is much much faster than having to search everything in the windows file explorer. The structure could look like this:

Master
- audio
- footage
- memes
- music
- sound effects
- stock footage

Having the footage in its separate folder makes the project explorer look really clean.

2) Adjustment layers can be amazing to save time. Not just for color grading but I also put effects on them. For example, if I have static footage where I want to add a little movement I put camera shake on the adjustment layer do my settings once, and then put the adjustment layer into the power bin so I can always reuse it.

3) If you have effects you frequently use with similar settings use the ability to save to make presets.

I need to make a cheat sheet and post it above my monitor. These tips are extremely helpful.

Organization is key!! 😂 I set all my clip colors to the number keys and F keys so when I’m cutting I just press one button and it automatically colors that for me. I have a system with those and when I review clips I know which color is used for what. Especially if you have gaming clips.

You simplified so many things I've been looking for in other videos in less than like 30 seconds each. Idk why other people are so long-winded. Thanks homie!

[renatugaming]

My favorite way of cutting is switching the split and putting the keybind to s.
It's real fast and simple for me, hopefully this tip helps others out.

One of the things me and my coworker hot keyed is "Auto Align Clips By Waveform" and "Unlink/Relink Clips" Toggle. Super helpful if you're making a lot of short videos with external mic audio.
Also, keep premade intros and outros in a master bin if you're working across different projects!

If you want to reset the transform options after you moved something around (zoom, moved up, etc) when a clip is selected, double click the option you want to change. Example being if you want to reset the zoom, just double click the word zoom and it goes back to its original position.

New to the program, I've learned so much in this short video. Well made, like super well made. No unessary fluff, just what you think would be helpful, and examples on how it's used. Masterful.

[onepercentile]

Practically fantastic! You covered all the mostly used bottle-neck bypassing editing tricks of Davinci Resolve. I'm super stoked to put them into practice. Thank ya D!

[rosyamya]

You literally saved me. Every other video I watched was just confusing and they were rambling, but you actually showed how to PROPEPLY use it! Tysm!!!!

[CameronLawson]

As a longtime user of Final Cut Pro X just beginning the transition to Davinci Resolve, this video is INCREDIBLY helpful. Resolve seems so incredibly intuitive, but from a completely different angle than Final Cut.. hence the re-learning process. Thank you!

[robertolanga]

Thank you for doing this video! Awesome tips, definitely going to start using some of these.

[mysidia]

That ripple trip to start/end is HUGE. Thank you!

[ChristianTapper]

Amazing video and super helpful. Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

[gamerstroveTV]

Just stumbled onto this video and damn, thank you so much! Been trying my best to learn this program and it's progressing slowly but nicely and this video really helps out 💪

[johnmaciel]

You just helped increase my video editing by at least 3x. Thanks for making this video!

[deannorthcott]

this video is awesome!! exactly what new editors need to know, thanks so much🙏

[BigBangMemo]

I loved this! Thank you so much, I'm sure I'll be coming back to this video a lot to revisit those shortcuts!
