Introduction
Key Command Conventions
Many of the default key commands in Cubase use modifier keys, some of which
are different depending on the operating system. For example, the default key
command for Undo is [Ctrl]-[Z] on Windows and [Command]-[Z] on Mac OS X
systems.
When key commands with modifier keys are described in this manual, they are
shown with the Windows modifier key first, in the following way:
[Win modifier key]/[Mac modifier key]-[key]
For example, [Ctrl]/[Command]-[Z] means “press [Ctrl] on Windows or
[Command] on Mac OS X systems, then press [Z]”.
Similarly, [Alt]/[Option]-[X] means “press [Alt] on Windows or [Option] on Mac
OS X systems, then press [X]”.
This manual often refers to right-clicking, for example, to open context
menus. If you are using a Mac with a single-button mouse, hold down [Ctrl] and
click.
