Blackmagic Design Speed Editor VS Editors Keyboard - Which One is Better For YOU?

Hey Dudes,
The Blackmagic Design Speed Editor and Editors keyboards for DaVinci Resolve 17 are now even cheaper to own. But even with this in mind, which one is right for you. In this video I hope to answer some of your questions.
Heres a quick look at the Speed Editor and Editor's keyboard specs:
The DaVinci Resolve keyboards have been designed in conjunction with the cut page to make editing dramatically faster. You get physical controls that you can feel in your hands, making the experience much better than software only editing. Unlike a mouse, the machined metal search dial with soft rubber coating allows very accurate search and positioning of the timeline. It feels just like holding the timeline in your hand! Trim keys allow the search dial to be used for live trimming, which is faster because the search dial is larger and more accurate.
DaVinci Resolve Editor Keyboard
The DaVinci Resolve Editor Keyboard is a full sized traditional QWERTY edit keyboard in a premium, all metal design. Featuring a machined metal search dial with clutch, it also includes extra edit, trim and timecode entry keys. It's even designed to install via a desk cut-out for flush mounting
Simply press one of the trim buttons and the search dial will transform into a large adjustment knob for real time, precise trimming.
Transport Control
Hardware control panels are perfect for fast playback control! Instantly start and stop playback using the "space bar" style button that's positioned so it can be pressed with your thumb. The shuttle, jog and scroll buttons change the function of the search dial, so you can edit fast and accurately.
Append To End
Append to end is fantastic for building
edits fast. Simply select an in and out point on the clip and then append to end will add the clip to the end of the timeline. Append to end is fantastic when adding shots to an edit from content that’s been shot in time order.
Fast In and Out Points
Entering in and out points is the most used function in editing, so the speed editor keyboard includes large in and out point buttons that you can easily locate by feel. That’s perfect for two handed editing where you're using your right hand for transport control and your left hand is placing in and out points and performing edits. You can simply scroll along with the search dial and place in and out points anywhere you want. Once the in and out points are set, just reach your fingers up to the edit function buttons to perform the edit. The in and out points can also be used to focus the source tape. Then you can change the source tape back to the whole bin by pressing the escape key.
Place On Top
Place on top is similar to traditional edit functions and this edit mode will place the clip on top of the background layer that’s already in the timeline. If the timeline doesn't have a layer above the background layer, it will add a new timeline track and then place the clip on top.
Fast In and Out Points
Entering in and out points is the most used function in editing, so the speed editor keyboard includes large in and out point buttons that you can easily locate by feel. That’s perfect for two handed editing where you're using your right hand for transport control and your left hand is placing in and out points and performing edits. You can simply scroll along with the search dial and place in and out points anywhere you want! Once the in and out points are set, just reach your fingers up to the edit function buttons to perform the edit. The in and out points can also be used to focus the source tape. Then you can change the source tape back to the whole bin by pressing the escape key.

Hey dudes - Both the speed editor and the editors keyboards by Blackmagic Design are now super cheap for what they are. But when you remove the 200 USD price difference, which one should you buy? Well this video will answer that for you. But I am also interested if you already own a speed editor or a editors keyboard and what your favourite features are?

@HerbOMatic 2 года назад

I spent a couple hundred hours with the speed editor then two weeks ago I bought the editors keyboard, it has already saved hours! The Keyboard is the way to go! Great Video!

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

Well said! And I totally agree.

@mecan5196 2 года назад

Something that is super important to understand about the Editor’s Keyboard is that the paint on the keycaps themselves rubs off pretty quickly. I bought it when it first came out and within 6 months, the paint on the most common keys wore off to the point that almost no paint was left on them. Looking really close, you can see how the paint is applied. It’s not laser etched or something like that like most keyboards - it is actually a very finely applied paint. I got the keyboard replaced and the same exact thing happened. I went back and forth with BM product management for over a year asking to buy the ‘replacement keycaps’ they say are available in the product description. Eventually, the product manager admitted there have been complaints of the paint coming off of a few of the units (including the Speed Editors) but that they had no intention of changing the manufacturing process. So, before you buy the keyboard, or the SE, please keep in mind the paint on the keycaps is going to rub off pretty quick and it costs money to get the caps replaced.

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

I man - that doesnt sound like a great experience. My unit doesnt seem to be wearing the paint like yours. I guess only time will tell. If it does, I think Ill just fix it myself.

@RanjanSharma2001 Год назад

A simple varnish spray coating over the keys should solve your problem.

@dirks4093 2 года назад

Well-made video for comparison. Thank you. I still drool over wanting to have the keyboard. I was on the fence about purchasing the editor's keyboard. but I ended up purchasing the speed editor instead. Here are my main factors in my decision: CONS OF THE KEYBOARD: Too big for the keyboard rollout. Too loud. More expense. POSITIVE OF THE SPEED EDITOR: I get a Flywheel. Short cut keys to improve workflow (and I don't mind working in the cut page - I like it actually as a way to prep for the edit page). I purchase it on that free deal when you buy another studio license - which made it virtually free when I sold the unused license key. The flywheel and many keys still work in the Edit page. I get to keep using a quieter keyboard. I can easily move to another computer (laptop, a friends computer or another studio computer w/ Davinci Resolve - and have an easier time because I remained with a standard keyboard. I would still buy the editors keyboard if it was quieter though.

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

These are all great points. All that matters is that you are stoked with the purchase and that it makes you money from your investment.

@resolving_boris 8 месяцев назад

I was using the Speed Editor when I didn't have a dedicated editing workspace and liked it (until it stopped working and I have to send it in for repair) since I could just put it in my backpack (no way to do that with the keyboard). Now that I have my studio, I was debating whether or not to get the keyboard. This convinced me to go for it. Thanks!

@EntrNmHre 8 месяцев назад

Sorry to hear you had to send in your speed editor for repair. That sounds like a bummer, but Im sure you’ll like the editors keyboard much more in your studio setup. I just wish they would update it to be wireless.

@scottstevensonfilms 3 месяца назад

I upgraded from the speed editor to the full editors keyboard and I really like it the only thing I miss from the speed editor is the audio level button. It was so handy to adjust levels with the dial, I wish there was a way to do this on the more expensive model.

@heystenner Год назад

My feeling is that the Speed Editor combined with a split ergonomic keyboard could be a suitable alternative in terms of portability and versatility.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

I think you should go with your gut. The speed Editor set up that way would make a great addition to any edit suite.

@IridiumMoon Год назад

Super review, thanks! Having cancelled my expensive Adobe Premiere annual subscription, I'm now learning Resolve. Your review convinced me to buy the Editor's Keyboard from the start, to avoid learning anything twice. A quick web seach shows Altered Images in Shepperton UK have them at GBP 445 + VAT including the Studio Software (Nov 2022). Brilliant value!

@EntrNmHre Год назад

So you are literally getting for free from your saved money from Adobe?! Im sure you will love the editors keyboard.

@IridiumMoon Год назад

@@EntrNmHre Yes, exactly that: the Adobe Premiere sales model is outdated. In the UK the DaVinci Resolve Studio upgrade is GBP 275 + VAT direct from BM (and that's once-off, not yearly), so I reckon the Editor's Keyboard is costing me GBP 170 (USD 201 / EUR 194) so I'm happy! As it's a company purchase we get the VAT back of course. At this price no one in their right mind should buy only the software; even if you don't want the keyboard, it could be flogged on EBay for more than 170 quid. 🙂

@@IridiumMoon Exactly! Happy editing

@watchtonystube Год назад

Bought a speed editor a year ago for $125 new in box from a post color house in Los Angeles. Just opened it a month ago as I am migrating from Pr Pro to Resolve editing platform and was excited to see how it may improve my workflow. After a month, I don’t see it speeding up my workflow. I continue using keyboard shortcuts, the speed editor sits on my desk and looks pretty neat. The wheel is cool, but keyboard short cuts get me up and down the timeline just fine. I was hoping the number keys on the speed editor worked like a video switcher by selecting a layer and can be used to cut in real time, but that’s not what they do In all honesty, the long thick USB-C cable gets the most use charging my cellphone. Im holding on to the speed editor incase it may be a good tool in the field as DIT paired with a color panel, but in the office it’s a tech looking paperweight

@EntrNmHre Год назад

I totally dont regret buying the editors keyboard for exactly the reasons you have listed. Keyboard shortcuts are so underrated.

@watchtonystube Год назад

I still use the OG FCP Logic keyboard. I have two of them. They work on every NLE and software app I have. I think the BMD keyboard is a bit gimmicky, as most the irregular shortcuts on the far left and right are the same inside the QWERTY section (and any QWERTY keyboard). The jog wheel is cool, but I use JKL and the arrows to navigate the timeline I’d have to try one out I suppose, but hope it works with multiple NLE’s, DAW’s and web browsing apps. I always have Ae Ps open while editing, or working on several assignments at a time from graphic design, video editing and audio editing plus railing thru emails all day.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

@@watchtonystube Apart from the scroll wheel, its just a mechanical keyboard. So you should be able to map the keys to what ever you what in any software. I do everything in resolve, I haven't even used photoshop in like 4 years

@doug_EX 2 года назад

I bought the Editor Keyboard when it was expensive and don’t regret it. I thought about buying the speed editor but decided not to buy it because you would still need a dedicated standard keyboard beside it. So might as well have just one that do both.

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

Exactly! The editors keyboard is an all in one. As a side note, I know a lot of people were initially unhappy with the price of the resolve editors keyboard, but when I purchased my first resolve dongle, its was 1200 dollars. Thats was 2010. Look how far Blackmagic Design have come and how they have changed the industry since then. And they keep lowering prices and giving more to our creative community. I cant wait to see what their next camera is like.

@35milesoflead Год назад

Thanks. I bought the Speed Editor a few weeks back. Thought i was missing out on the keyboard but Editors keys make a Resolve keyboard which I think will work well with the Speed Editor.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

Oh I hadn't heard of that product, (editors keys) I will have to look it up - cheers

@JAmediaUK 2 года назад

Interesting review. I got the SE because it came "free" with Resolve Studio. I use an illuminated gamers keyboard with the SE and a tracker ball. The gamers keyboard has 6 macro keys which are useful. Both the BMD keyboards seem to suffer with the BMD disease. That is BMD design them with a single use case in mind and no flexibility to adapt them to other use cases. (for example the 9 wasted cam keys in the middle of the SE) Hopefully BMD upgrade to permit reprograming the SE keys CAM via and app with a firmware upgrade. Though all too often BMD launch something with flaws and then rather than an upgrade to fix it is a whole new device. The ATEM mini debacle for example.

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

Fantastic points. And great choice. The SE is absolutely worth the money. But Im not if you can still get that deal, pretty sure you cant where I am in France. Can you still get that deal in the UK? I agree if BMD could open both the speed editor and the editors keyboard (apart from typing) up for integration into other software. I think that would be awesome. But your setup, sounds pretty slick.

@JAmediaUK 2 года назад

@@EntrNmHre Yes, it is a good set up. I am not worried about intergrating the SE with other software but I do want the 9 CAM keys to be reprogramable as something usefull. The Vast majority of Resolve users are not going to use multiple cameras. Well maybe 2 or 3 max. Another design defect is that you can't turn off Bluetooth permenantly via USB. Appart from that it would be very useful if the SE worked on the other pages as wel as the CUT page. Principally the Edit page. I have no idea if the Free SE with Studio deal is stil lgoing. It was meant to be for 3 months then stretched for over a year durring COVD.

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

@@JAmediaUK Oh I totally agree with that. I didnt do a single multi cam edit in 3 months. So yes your correct the 9 CAM keys on the speed editor where pretty much useless to me. But its strange you, because with the Editors keyboard, I use the timecode keys all the time. The bluetooth not being able to be switched of is also something that I noticed, but I was ook with it. Just had to remember to disconnect it from the computer side. The battery life in the speed editor is fantastic already, but if the BT connectivity was changeable, it would be outstanding. SO yes thats something that they should fix. ON and OFF switches in battery powered device, could be a simple solution.

@donwells8465 2 года назад

I agree, I would like to reprogram the multicam keys. I rarely use multicam.

@JAmediaUK 2 года назад

@@donwells8465 The reprogramming of the 9 CAM keys is the most often asked feature for the SE on the BMD forum. It seem other than a very few who always use multiple cameras simultaniously the vast majority find these keys a complete waste of time. (and the take up nealy 1/4 of the keyboard real estate. ) Hopefully there will be a BMD app that lets you re program the CAM keys for other things in Resolve.

@mlbreel Год назад

Thank you for your review. I recently bought the speed editor but think I’ll get a keyboard one also to have at my desk. I can see using the speed with my MacBook Pro being my portable setup. It’s more expense than I would have liked, buying both but I can see the benefit of having both going forward. Thanks for your assistance with my thinking through the options.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

Hi there, if you enjoy using Blackmagic Designs speed editor you’ll love the editors keyboard.

@NiTeHaWKnz Год назад

Fun Fact - the devices are meant for different roles/situations. The speed editor is for quick edits on location, where as the full keyboard is for the edit suite.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

While I would agree in some cases, not all. Depends on the size of your Van and location cart for a DIT, home office or studio. You can have a full edit suite these days on a tiny desk, where the editors keyboard would be an issues. Or have a computer in a server rack in a server room, where both would be a nightmare to connect. Which is what I have just had happen in my new studio.

@pxlmvr7 Год назад

I was wondering what the differences were! And I agree that the ergonomics of the keyboard are better then the SE; it is awkward to use with a regular keyboard. I also miss the older keyboards; newer ones just aren't the same especially if you are a 9 finger touch typer. I'll have to give the keyboard another look and maybe check to see if any updates are forthcoming. Thanks!!

@EntrNmHre Год назад

I think an update foe the full keyboard will be a long way off.

@christopherquinn1879 2 года назад

Thank you I am just learning Resolve and decided to invest in a keyboard at first, I thought about one that just had an overlay built in or should I get the speed editor. After watching you video, I decided to speed the money and get the keyboard plus I get Resolve studio upgrade for free so there is an additional $300.00 in savings.

It would be nice if the editor keyboard was smaller but a big mechanical keyboard makes more sense considering longevity and ease of repair. Also manafacturing low volume mech keyboards must be cheaper and easier than a dome switch version.

@EntrNmHre 6 месяцев назад

I agree with you, it is a big loaf. But long term, its ergonomics pay off. After using for so long now, it think maybe the best improvement really would be a user replaceable battery and bluetooth connect. All the cables on my desk, man its annoying.

@musicproductionsimplified 2 года назад

@EntrNmHre Год назад

Its most likely you are still learning resolve. If you think of resolve like premiere or the now forgotten final cut pro 7, you should catch on quick. Best thing is there are plenty of great resources out there (some on my channel - shameless plug) that are all free. Whatever you do dont fall into the trap of paying for resolve training. Once its starts to click a entire new universe of editorial possibilities will open up creatively for you. Any questions, anytime, hit me up.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

@@dwylhq874 If you can afford one I would suggest getting a Mac Studio and spec it out. Then you will get the most life out of it. Otherwise wait for the new MacPro. Im using a maxed M1 Mac Mini while waiting for the MacPro to launch so I can do a price comparison to the Studio and how "upgradeable / repairable" Apple makes their next pro level desktop. I try and avoid laptops as eventually they need their batteries replaced. If you need it now - get the Mac Studio, don't waste time with PC's - resolve is runs far better and is more stable on the Mac platform. BMD has a partnership with Apple which gets prioritised as Apple has a set number of fixed configurations compared to the unlimited cong variations one can have on a PC. A PC can currently be made technically more powerful, but the user experience is always on the side of the Mac platform. Hope this helps. Interested to know what you choose.....?

If you were under the impression that a resolve key should have come with your purchase, you will need to contact your retailer.

@mrrolandlawrence Год назад

my friend just bought the keyboard. its awesome. build quality is what you'd call pro. wish apple would take note. one question - is it possible to change the cheery reds for brown switches?

@EntrNmHre Год назад

If you have a switch puller you should be able to change them yes. Warranty is something to consider though.

@rickvdvulkaan Год назад

gonna rant here a little; I feel like both the editor keyboard and speed editor are mostly gimmicks, not that well thought out, with the jogwheel as the only actual physical added value, and that there aren't any critical reviews out there. For example, (this is specifically for the keyboard) if you look at the buttons above the jogwheel, the timeline and source button, the "q" shortcut to toggle is way faster and more ergonomic, as you can leave your hand on the wheel. Which makes these buttons kind of useless. If you want to move your playhead from edit point to edit point you have to reach for the arrows which are kind of far away (details, but important), which could be these 2 buttons on the top (and which also need to be closer, probably it's now there because of design/outlining). An inner/outer ring for jogging/scrolling would be way more comfortable, instead of reaching for the current 3 buttons all the time, from which the shuttle mode is just horrible to use. The other buttons on the left side could just as well be regular keys, which also didn't even work in the first place in the edit page, and we're talking about an "editor" keyboard here. That you can't zoom the timeline with a modifier key and the jogwheel is a big missed opportunity. And i can think of so many more. And that's about it about the additional value of such device. The idea of having a specific device for editors has so much more potential. Just look at the fairlight desktop editor for fun. I feel like the editor keyboard is designed for the eye, maybe the budget, the marketing, and not for actual efficiency. To end this short rant with something positive; i do love it that BMD offers specific hardware tools for editors. But there is a lot to improve.

@EntrNmHre Год назад

Oh you rant is very welcome. You make some great points. A lot of people love the speed editor and just as many dislike it and prefer the editors keyboard. My real issue with BMD is that they recycle too many components. Thats great for cost savings to be able to deliver us hardware products, but on the flip side it can frustrate consumers by leaving out features or adding ones that the vast majority will never use.

@livingforhim Год назад

If you need to select multiple clips in a timeline. How would you highlight the only the ones you want using the keyboard?

@DanielLearnsPiano 9 месяцев назад

Are the key switches actually hot swappable or is it just the keycaps?

@EntrNmHre 9 месяцев назад

I only have a key cap puller and havent tried to replace the switches, however I believe since making the review BMD has states they are fused to the board - but Im not sure if I believe that as you can see the “bits” that need to be declicked to remove the switches. But dont quote me on it as I have not tired it or have yet had the need to...

1 question: does the editors keyboard act as a regular keyboard? Or does it ONLY work with resolve? (Edit: I think you answered that in the video. A: it DOES work as a standard keyboard, so I would not require an additional keyboard at all. Thank you!)

@EntrNmHre Год назад

Hey no sweat, yep the Editors keyboard does work as a regular keyboard outside of resolve 18.1. Thats why I leaned heavily into the editors keyboard over the BMD speed editor. As like you, I dont want a cluster of devices on my desktop just to work in resolve.

@ruiz460 Год назад

@@EntrNmHre cheers! That makes it an easier choice for a desktop set up. I ended up raising my standard keyboard with the speed editor a level below so there’s less confusion but your hands naturally gravitate to one keyboard over the other.

Wondering if the Editors keyboard will work as well for video editing on a PC?

@EntrNmHre 2 года назад

The editors keyboard as a keyboard will work on any computer with USBC or a USBC to A convertor. But if your intending on using it outside of resolve, then only the traditional keyboard, function keys and number pad will work. Essentially it is a regular keyboard with resolve only key commands on the sides. Hope this helps Tracey

What if you coming with MacBook Pro? Does the keyboard still work better??

@EntrNmHre Год назад

Thats a great question. I guess that really has to do with how you are editing with your Macbook Pro. If you are happy using the inbuilt keyboard, you can map a lot of the functions and create hot keys or just stick with the FCP, PREM or RESOLVE preconfigured shortcuts. But if you are using your laptop in clamshell mode or vesa mount platform - then either the Editors keyboard of Speed editor from BMD would work really well. If I was using a laptop, I would get the speed editor. As for the overall typing experience, thats very subjective and hard for me to advise on. I prefer mechanical keyboards that are separate from the computer. But I am probably in the minority.
