I mention a bunch of keyboard shortcuts, most of which are the Avid defaults. Those that are NOT defaults but reflect my recommended customizations (and in some cases former Avid defaults):
E - Segment Mode (Extract / Splice-In)
R - Segment Mode (Life / Overwrite)
; - Link Selection Toggle
A - Go to Previous Event
S - Go to Next Event
Up - Zoom Out
Down - Zoom In
