The deadly curse of the spider is a persistent belief or fear that certain species of spiders are dangerous or deadly to humans. This belief has been perpetuated over time, leading to a general fear and disgust towards spiders. While some spiders do have venom that can cause harm to humans, the vast majority of spider species pose little to no threat. The fear of spiders, known as arachnophobia, is one of the most common phobias worldwide. This fear is often rooted in cultural and social factors, as well as personal experiences. Movies, books, and folklore have contributed to the portrayal of spiders as villains and creatures to be feared.

In reality, most spiders are harmless to humans and play a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance. They are natural predators of insects, helping to control populations of pests like flies and mosquitoes.
Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor + Software License
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. Editing and trimming with the search dial is a whole new way to work! All of this means DaVinci Resolve is the next generation of editing!
The DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor features a machined metal search dial in a design that includes only the specific keys needed for editing. It also has Bluetooth with internal battery for connecting wirelessly, or you can connect via USB-C. That means it's more portable than a full sized keyboard!
Search Dial Control
The DaVinci Resolve keyboards allow a better quality editing experience because they create a physical connection to the edit that’s deeper than a simple computer mouse. The search dial is a machined metal design so it has a weighted feel and it can be spun fast to move up and down the timeline quickly. However the search dial is more than this because it can be used for live trimming! Simply press one of the trim buttons and the search dial will transform into a large adjustment knob for real time, precise trimming! Once you've experienced trimming with the search dial, it's virtually impossible to go back to a mouse!
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.
Source Tape for Scrolling Clips
Traditional edit software uses thousands of clips to organize your media, so you need to constantly click and drag clips to edit. That’s too slow for work such as TVCs, news, promos and training videos. However old tape based linear editing had the advantage of all media being played from a videotape, so you could simply fast forward and rewind to see all your shots! Now the cut page has a modern version of the videotape and it’s called the "source tape". Simply push the source button and use the search dial to scroll through all your media! Plus, the current clip is highlighted live in the bin! After the edit the viewer will stay in the source tape so you can move to the next shot faster.
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.
Intelligent Keyboard Edit Modes
Editing with a keyboard is different to editing with a mouse, so the cut page editing functions have been upgraded to take advantage of the speed of a keyboard. The edit functions are intelligent and use the "smart indicator" in the timeline to work out where to insert, so most of the time you don't need to place in or out points in the timeline to do an edit! They are located just above the in and out keys, so are easy to locate by feel. Plus each time you edit, the cut page won't waste time switching over to the timeline, allowing you to stay in the source tape and visually browse, placing clips continuously. That's much faster as you can just keep throwing clips into the timeline!
Search Dial Live Trimming
With a large high quality search dial built into the panel, you get an extremely accurate way to trim shots. With the search dial being such a physically large control, it completely transforms how it feels to trim shots. Plus it’s much faster too! The trim buttons will change the search dial into a trim control and you simply hold the trim buttons and rotate the search dial. This means you can select various trim modes with your left hand while adjusting the trim with your right. It's extremely fast and the smart indicator in the timeline will let you know which edit you're trimming. Just move along the timeline and live trim edits. It’s a whole new way to work!
The Faster Way to Add and Remove Effects!
Editing software can be slow at adding transitions to edits because you have to click and drag effects down into the timeline. However, with the DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor, you can just press a button to switch them on and off! It’s really fast as you can scroll down the timeline adding or removing effects! The smart indicator in the timeline will let you know which edit point will be affected, and you can move the timeline to move the edit point in focus. The cut key will remove any effect on an edit point in the timeline. Pressing dissolve adds a dissolve to the edit point using the default duration. Pressing the smooth cut button adds a smooth cut so you can eliminate jump cuts!
Function Keys
The DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor eliminates the large QWERTY keyboard for a smaller more portable design, so the function button area includes only the controls you need for editing. Some of the enhanced function keys on the DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor are not even available on the full sized editor keyboard! Plus, some keys have an alternative function where you can press and hold or double press to get a second function using the same key. That means you need less keys for a more portable design, but it still retains a lot of editing power. The keys are in a separate group so you can find the key you need by feel and operate faster than a regular keyboard.
Sync Bin Multi Camera Selection
The camera number section lets you select the cameras when using the cut page sync bin. Plus, if you press a camera number while turning the search dial, the selected camera will be applied to the timeline in real time as you jog forward. This feature is called live override and on the speed editor panel you can do it momentarily by holding the camera button, or you can latch it on using the live override button. When live override is latched on, the buttons light up and you can select cameras just like a production switcher! You will see a multiview and you can just cut from camera to camera! Plus, this section even has the video only and audio only buttons for greater editing control!
Both Bluetooth and USB Control
The DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor model includes built in Bluetooth so you can use the keyboard without messy wires, and you can even use it in conjunction with your regular computer keyboard. That’s perfect for using it with a laptop. You can also use the keyboard via USB if required and the USB connection will also charge the internal battery. With Bluetooth and a built in battery, the keyboard is extremely portable!
- DaVinci Resolve Speed Editor
- DaVinci Resolve Studio Activation Code
These features add up to a much speedier workflow, though it’s worth mentioning that you might still need your regular keyboard handy. While the Speed Editor has a lot of intelligent cutting features, it lacks dedicated keys for a few basics like inserting or overwriting clips; Blackmagic’s pricier full-size editor keyboard ($595) does have these functions.
Some spiders can even be beneficial to humans by aiding in pest control in gardens and homes. However, a few species of spiders do possess venom that can be harmful or even deadly to humans. Examples include the black widow spider and the brown recluse spider. These spiders are typically found in specific regions and habitats, and encounters with them are relatively rare. Even in regions where these spiders are present, bites are infrequent and fatalities are extremely rare. It is important to note that even if bitten by a venomous spider, immediate medical attention can usually prevent serious complications or death. Most spider bites cause only mild symptoms, such as local pain, redness, and swelling. It is only in very rare cases that severe reactions or complications may occur. Education and understanding of spiders can help alleviate unnecessary fear and anxiety. By learning about different spider species and their behaviors, it becomes clear that the majority of spiders are harmless and even beneficial. Understanding the signs of a dangerous spider bite and seeking medical attention when necessary can also help address concerns related to the deadly curse of the spider. In conclusion, the deadly curse of the spider is a misperception that has led to a widespread fear of spiders. While some spiders do possess venom that can cause harm, the fear and stigma surrounding spiders is largely unfounded. Education, understanding, and taking appropriate precautions can help alleviate unnecessary anxiety and promote a more balanced view of these fascinating creatures..
