Is the Davinci Resolve Editor Keyboard worth it?

I recently purchased a Resolve Micro Panel and I’m wondering if the Editor Keyboard is worth grabbing as well.
I work exclusively in Davinci Resolve as my main editor and coloring program.
Thoughts, opinions, and suggestions?

I would like to know as well. I'm using speed editor and I do like the quality of the build.

I have had it since december and use it every day it is a great relief when cutting.

I’m referring to the big full-sized keyboard.

Adam, I have the bigger editor keyboard and I would have said before the release of the speed editor that it is 100% worth it. Now let me explain why as I have never used the speed editor and don't plan on using it.

I viewed the full size editor keyboard, that cost $1,000, as the flagship editor keyboard for Resolve. It is a quality build, has an awesome jog wheel, and in learning to use the keyboard shortcuts has been tremendously valuable. I am very comfortable with it. So why am I not 100% endorsing it today?

It's because BMD does not support the cut page shortcuts, or mapping, with the bigger keyboard. To use the cut page to its full potential you need to use the Speed Editor keyboard. I view this as not only a complete fail from a programming side, but also a betrayal to those that have paid $1,000 for their "flagship" editor keyboard. It also seems like a money grab as well. When you look at their micro and mini color corrector panels they have the same controls as the bigger board has, just less of them. Not so with the editor keyboards. So, because of the incompatibility with the cut page I would think twice about spending a $1,000 on a keyboard that really only works 100% on the edit page.

One last point to think about. You mentioned having the micro panel and did not mention the mini panel. I use the mini panel and I cannot imagine just using the micro panel. If you budget allowed I would look at returning the mini and getting the micro instead.

Hope this helps.

No that’s very helpful.
I honestly haven’t spent much time in the CUT page, so I’m wondering if that’s necessarily a factor for me.

I am curious how to layout my workspace.
I can’t afford the larger Mini Panel for coloring, so I’ll be using the Micro.
I do have a deep desk, so hopefully that will be enough space.
