The built-in Search Dial is similar to the jog wheel often found on professional edit decks, but in conjunction with the push-button keys and DaVinci Resolve software, the search dial is much more powerful. Additionally, these push buttons provide shortcuts to useful features available only on the Speed Editor.

As soon as you close DaVinci Resolve the LEDs are also switched off. While updating the software the LEDs are off again. This button most likely leads to a software update. The Speed Editor features dedicated push buttons that control the edit modes, timeline navigation, and effects of DaVinci Resolve. You'll see the Speed Editor in the Help -> DaVinci Control Panels Setup once it is connected, with a round button below. The Speed Editor is charged by and can connect to your computer via an optional USB Type-C cable. The Speed Editor is small enough to take with you on location, and its built-in battery allows you to use it via Bluetooth for a wire-free connection. It interfaces with macOS or Windows editing systems running DaVinci Resolve, providing you with keyboard shortcuts and controls that speed up your editing, compared to using a mouse to navigate your edit system.

The Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor is a perfect complement for the editor on the go.
