This is a good set of shortcuts for navigation and creating markers during
tempo mapping of a whole song:

| Shortcut | Description | Type |
| --- | --- | --- |
| { | Loop points: Set start point | |
| } | Loop points: Set end point | |
| Tab | Item navigation: Move cursor to next transient in items | |
| Shift+Tab | Item navigation: Move cursor to previous transient in items | |
| [ | Markers: Go to previous marker/project start | |
| ] | Markers: Go to next marker/project end | |
| Ctrl+Shift+[ | Move edit cursor to start of current measure | Custom |
| Ctrl+Shift+] | Move edit cursor to start of next measure | Custom |
| Ctrl+Shift+, | Move edit cursor back one beat | Custom |
| Ctrl+Shift+. | Move edit cursor forward one beat | Custom |
| Ctrl+Alt+Shift+M | Options: Toggle metronome | Custom |
| Alt+Shift+0 | Script: rcook_Mark_Measure.lua | Custom |
| Alt+Shift+1 | Script: rcook_Mark_Measure_1_4.lua | Custom |

## Overview

* Enable _Editing Behavior_ \| _Transient detection_ \| _Tab through MIDI notes_
* This is particularly useful if you have MIDI drums
* _Tab_ and _Shift+Tab_ can then be used to easily move the edit cursor through the song's downbeats
* Navigate through song's measures, beats and transients using keyboard shortcuts
* Set the start of a measure using _{_ and the end using _}_
* Use `rcook_Mark_Measure.lua` et al to create tempo/time signature markers to turn this into a measure in the song's timeline
