Great Product, June 1, 2008
By

For what it is, this is an awesome product. If you edit a lot of video this makes your life infinitely easier.
The problem is that the setups that ship with the product are totally out of date and their webs site looks like it was developed by a 14 year old. Ultimately I got them to send me instructions on how to set it up to work with the latest version of iMovie. But getting this thing going took far far more time than it should have.
The build quality is excellent and it does what it is supposed to do very well. But be prepared to fuss with it for a while before you get it working properly.
Shuttle away!, May 16, 2008

The Shuttle works great and it's very intuitive to work with. I use it especially in After Effects to go frame by frame. I'm a little bummed however with the fast forward, it does work and all, but it stops pretty abrubt when you let go. I'd prefer a shuttle that you can give a spin and it'd slowly slow down. If that were the case I'd use it in Priemiere and Final Cut also... but the price is right.

This thing's awesome for video editing. Works really well with audio workstations as well. It just seems to make editing more fun.

Works exactly the way it's supposed to, January 8, 2008

I love this thing, with one caveat: the knurled knob's finger groove is too deepset in the wheel. It is not comfortable to turn at all, and gets stuck at the top of every turn when you're trying to turn it quickly.
