If one were to script this the behavior would be kind of similar to the Numpad Zero behavior. It's similar to what Numpad Zero does, but useful instead of useless. This is really useful when you need to audibly find the start or end of something like a mouth sound or breath.
If you need to move the playhead forward or back use alt+arrow key or equivalent (I'd suggest something like ctrl+alt+shft J or L) Use a key combination to play the next X frames (configured in prefs) and then return to the spot you were parked at. Here's an example of how it would go with Vegas. It would always leave you back at the position you started at so if you actually wanted to move the playhead to a new starting point you'd do it separately. The idea there was that you could use a key combo to play ahead of or behind the current position. It seems like Ctrl+Drag gives you something similar but this is really primitive compared to what I used to see in Media100. I was just playing with modifier keys while dragging the timeline play head.

Dragging the cursor will not give you audio feedback by default (though you can get some audio feedback if you hold down CTRL and then click and drag the cursor) Note: Make sure you click and drag the playhead and not the cursor. Still wish you could do this with the keyboard though :( If you zoom in on the timeline, you can get finer control and pretty easily drag the playhead frame-by-frame with audio feedback. This is probably the best way to get the control you are looking for.
The closest thing you can get is dragging the playhead across the timeline.ĭragging the playhead with the left mouse button (or whichever your primary mouse button is) will act as if you were using a shuttle knob (the more you turn the knob, the more the audio pitch and video speed increases).ĭragging the playhead with the right mouse button (or secondary mouse button) will scrub the audio/video at a single rate no matter how fast/far you move the mouse (i.e. Unfortunately Vegas doesn't provide audio feedback when scrubbing using the keyboard (arrow keys, F3/F9, etc.). Yes we can look at the waveforms, but there's no guesswork when you can hear the audio cue you're looking for. This makes it very simple to hear when a person starts saying a word with frame-accuracy. I find this to be a very useful feature as you can move frame by frame using the arrow keys on the keyboard and hear the audio under the cursor. If you're not sure how useful something like this could be, play with FCP or Premier- they both have this feature.
