Hotkeys are powerful, and ScoreBreak comes with a default set of keyboard commands that can enhance your control and use of the system.

The Web Application features the following playback hotkeys:

  • Left & Right Arrow Keys

    • Frame by frame when pressing keys,

    • 0.5x playback rate when holding Right Arrow Key

  • Alt + Left & Right Arrow Keys

    • 5s jump when pressing keys,

    • Rapidly repeating while holding Alt + Left or Right Arrow Keys

  • Shift + Left & Right Arrow Keys

    • 0.5s jump when pressing keys,

    • 5x playback when holding Shift + Right Arrow Key

  • Alt + Shift + Left & Right Arrow Keys

    • 1.6s jump when pressing keys

    • 16x playback when holding Alt + Shift + Right Arrow Key

On a Mac, the ⌥ Option key is used instead of the Windows Alt key.
