I’ve been using Contour Shuttle’s for years --  works in most anything. Don’t use heavily in AE but do use it for stepping through frames -  use heavily in NLEs. I stopped used JKL when I got my first over 10 years ago. It would be really hard to go back to JKL.

A film is – or should be – more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.

Subject: [AE] [OT] Anyone use a hardware Jog/Shuttle?

 

Hey all I've got a big premiere project and ever since they removed the software shuttle buttons in ppro I've found the J-K-L shortcuts aren't as fast as they are in FCP. With so much footage to go through, I'm considering a hardware jog / shuttle. couple of questions:

- Are there any peripherals that also work with AE? or are specifically for AE? My guess is no. The one I'm looking at has multiple software macro buttons, that may be able to be mapped to AE shortcuts, which would make it worth it. I know my cintiq macro buttons work great in AE for roto, so I don't see why it wouldn't work.

- Do any of you actually use a hardware shuttle? Is it worth it? My concern is cluttering up my desk for something I'll only use sparingly

 

I'm looking at this one, which for $100 isn't gonna break the bank anyway.
