Premiere Pro Edit Dial Controller (Seek / Play / Pause) ($6 DIY)

I am selling a product that can be configurable with a web browser without coding.

Please take a look at below link!!

Update!!!

New version is here!!

I’m really into making Youtube videos for Instructables. Sometimes it is hard to rewind the moment I wanted to pause. So, I thought it would be nice if I had a dial for it.

[3d printing]

• First of all, you need to prepare some parts and 3d printing things. 3d parts are on the Thingiverse.
• https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2810760

The very first step is soldering.

This weird connection shows that I didn’t want to use any wires for soldering it at all.

I used digital output for giving ground and 5v.

It works well!

Solder all five pins.

It is straightforward.

There is a vertical hole on the side wall.

It is for USB terminal

I uploaded a nut shape model on the Thingiverse just in case you don’t have a proper size of nuts.

(Using a M7 nut is better way.)

If you want to fix it completely, glue it.

Put 4 quarter into the bottom frame for making it heavy.

Put the dial into the frame or you can use other knobs for it.

You can use other knobs (I prefer smaller one)

just in case, here is code

<p>#include "Keyboard.h"</p><p>#define  OUTPUT_B 15
#define  OUTPUT_A A0
#define  BUTTON A1
#define PIN_5V  A2
#define PIN_GND  A3</p><p>bool aState;
bool aLastState;
int lastButtonState = 0;</p><p>void setup() {</p><p>  Keyboard.begin();</p><p>  pinMode(OUTPUT_A, INPUT);
  pinMode(OUTPUT_B, INPUT);
  pinMode(BUTTON, INPUT_PULLUP);</p><p>  pinMode(PIN_5V, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(PIN_GND, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(PIN_5V, HIGH);
  digitalWrite(PIN_GND, LOW);</p><p>  Serial.begin(9600);</p><p>  aLastState = digitalRead(OUTPUT_A);
}
bool count = 0;
bool keyFlag = false;
long lastClickTime = 0;
long lastRotateTime = 0;</p><p>void loop() {</p><p>  if (millis() - lastClickTime > 1000) {
    aState = digitalRead(OUTPUT_A);
    if (aState != aLastState) {
      if (digitalRead(OUTPUT_B) != aState) {
        Keyboard.press(KEY_LEFT_ARROW);
      } else {
        Keyboard.press(KEY_RIGHT_ARROW);
      }
      Keyboard.releaseAll();
      aLastState = aState;
    }</p><p>    if (digitalRead(BUTTON) == LOW) {
      if (lastButtonState  == HIGH) {
        Keyboard.print(" ");
        lastClickTime = millis();
      }
      lastButtonState = LOW;
    } else {
      lastButtonState = HIGH;
    }
  }</p><p>}</p>

Meanwhile, plug usb cable into your arduino board and your PC.

if you didn’t install the arduino IDE, please install it.

Select Arduino Leonardo in the Tool bar - Board - Arduino Leonardo

And Select the Communication Port which is in Tool - Port.

You can see the new port when you plug your Arduino to your pc

Now, Hit the upload button

If you can see “Done uploading” text, it means done.

It has a click switch.

Everytime you click it, the arduino sends a space text.

So, you can make the premiere pro play and pause.

I think you guys have been suffered from this situation.

For example, I wanted to pause when the scene is changed.

But I cannot stop it immediately, So, I had no choice but to seek it by clicking here and there.

Now with this dial, I am able to seek it way better than ever.
