Back / Forward and Play for Pro Tools Studio

Back / Forward and Play for Pro Tools Studio

This is a workaround for PT Studio users that want PT Ultimate Feature: Back / Forward and Play.

Walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxbjyTzdsCs&ab_channel=James

This is a workaround for PT Studio users that want PT Ultimate Feature: Back / Forward and Play. Dynamically sets nudge value to 5 seconds and returns to 1 frame nudge. Intelligently switches to fast forward / rewind during playback for predetermined amount of time (3 seconds). Very helpful when writing automation to prime yourself. Also great to add to a control surface like an Avid S1 that doesn't have any dedicated jog / shuttle wheel, etc.

Hopefully I can get feedback on this and make future iterations that allow for custom settings of nudge values and fast forward / rewind predetermined lengths.
