Bella Pro Series 3.0

Designed specifically for professional video editors, the Bella Pro Series 3.0 features a unique built-in jog/shuttle controller that allows users to edit faster and more efficiently, offering precise, mouse-free control over their audio and video clips.

The Pro Series 3.0 also includes two USB 2.0 ports and three power ports for Bella’s optional NeoLite – a dual LED task light that can be used to illuminate the keyboard or the work area around it.

In addition, program specific color and icon coded keycaps help users learn commands faster – which is good because those programs can get freakin’ complicated.

The Bella Pro Series 3.0 is available for Final Cut Pro, Avid Express, Avid Media Composer, Sony Vegas, Adobe Premier Pro, and Pinnacle Edition. Both PC and Mac are supported (MSRP $189).

I just received one of the Pro 3.0 keyboards. Upon opening, and connecting the keyboard to a USB port on my workstation, another attached usb device begins to fail. Speicifcally the other device is a firelite external usb drive. When I disconnect the keyboard, the drive again functions a-ok. Email, and calls to Bella support so-far have provided no solutions.

Thanks for the tip. Bella does have a 15 day return policy (longer for a defective product) if you are interested.
The details are located here:

Did Bella even respond to the emails and phone calls?

Sean,

Thanks for the reply. Bella has not yet responded, but in fairness to them, I received the keyboard this past Wednesday (day before thanksgiving), I think they may have been off friday. I’ll try and get in touch with them again this week.
