Hi Hugo,
You know, to be honest, I'm not sure. In theory, the key commands should work the same; it's just that the keys are in different places on the keyboard. I think you'd just need to try it and see.
In any case, using the US set of key commands is just a suggestion. You don't have to. It's just that I make references to key commands for certain tasks throughout the videos. So, if you are using different key commands, that's fine, but you need to be aware of that and understand that the key commands I mention in the videos won't be the same as yours. And that's perfectly fine for experienced users. My suggestion in the Introduction video of using the default US key commands was geared more towards new users.
Okey, thanks.
I am following the video's now and the key commands are not the same, but I can easily look them up in the key commands window.
I am noting down the biggest differences in a pages document.
Some differences are a bit disturbing like stop, play and pause behavior. I will post my findings when this is all clear to me.
Although I am what you can call a reasonably experienced "basic" DAW user I was extremely frustrated with inconsistencies in workflow in Cubase, the DAW I am used to.
Most, if not all tutorials on Cubase do not train you in using the key commands at all. They all suggest you have "a look into the key commands and learn them by heart" and to "set up key commands for the functions you use the most". That is not teaching (in my opinion, I am a (music) teacher myself)...
That's a bit like saying: look; these are the components of a car, put it together to your liking and then drive...or: if you want to hit the brakes with your nose, go ahead. hardly pedagogical...
I know key commands can be very "personal" and most DAW's have different default commands to do exactly the same thing.
But to "learn a workflow" I think it's better to stick with what is offered in the beginning and maybe afterwards customize them to your liking when you know exactly what you want to achieve (and how you want to achieve it).
Hence my preference for your tutorials, hehe, very key commands- centric.
