Scrub/Shuttle Wheel
The Scrub/Shuttle wheel is used for scrubbing,
shuttling, defining regions, and other edit oper-
ations.
The two switches directly above the wheel, la-
beled SCRUB and SHUTTLE, choose the mode of
operation. The Scrub/Shuttle wheel can also
control external devices.
Using Scrub Mode
To use Scrub mode:
1
Press SCRUB while Pro Tools is not playing or
recording.
2
Navigate the scrub point to the start or end of
a current selection by pressing PREVIOUS (for
start) or NEXT (for end).
3
Rotate the Scrub wheel clockwise to scrub au-
dio forward, or counter-clockwise to scrub back-
ward.
The scrub start position will be the location of
the Edit cursor when a waveform selection ex-
ists, or the location of the Playback cursor loca-
tion if there is no current selection.
The distance the Scrub wheel travels determines
the length of the audio scrubbed, and wheel
speed determines Scrub speed. During Scrub
mode, the REW and FFW LEDs are lit (just like
the Pro Tools on-screen Transport).
To scrub starting from the Selection End:
■
While pressing OPT(ALT)/ALL, press SCRUB
to begin scrubbing from the selection end posi-
tion.
To scrub with “finer fixed” resolution:
■
Press the (CTL) switch while scrubbing to
engage fine-resolution scrubbing.
To exit Scrub mode:
■
To exit Scrub completely and return to normal
operation, press the SCRUB switch or any of the
Transport switches.
■
Exit Scrub mode by pressing the Space bar on
the computer keyboard, typing (CTL)+“.” (pe-
riod) on Control|24, or pressing the ESC/CAN-
CEL switch. You can also exit Scrub mode by
switching to Shuttle mode.
Scrub and Shuttle modes temporarily sus-
pend cursor and transport functions.
