Sorry I didn’t post yesterday. I was very busy, but today I will review an awesome product I bought made by Contour. When I went to a film camp in the Summer, I saw they had one of these. I asked them what it did and what it was called. They called it a Shuttle and described it as a multimedia editing tool. They demonstrated it and let me play with it. I liked this so I bought one for myself. There are Shuttle Pros and Shuttle Xpresses. I got the Xpress, but at the film camp they had a Pro. I easily configured this and was using it within minutes. I won’t go through the whole set up process, but you assign the buttons on the device to keystroke commands, or other features in the targeted program. You can use this with any program. It is really a great tool. The Xpress is circular, with a inner jog wheel in the middle surrounded by an outer shuttle wheel. Then there are 5 programable buttons surrounding that. The only different from the Xpress and the Pros (there are two different kinds or Pros) is that they are different shapes and the Pros have more buttons. I highly recommend this product!
