How to return-to-zero using the computer keyboard?

As the title says, I just want a quick key to return the cursor to Bar1/Beat1. The "Restart" button obviously does this, but it also begins playback -- I don't want to play, just to park there.

Is there a quick key for this, or a button (or button combination), on the controller? I have a Mikro, btw.

 

Soooo... it can't be done?

 

Nop, not possible.
All (or most) key commands here on chapter 3:

A couple of extra ones here:

Surprised and disappointed.
Can NI not see the advantages of these basic short cuts?

Even the button on the software '|<' plays as soon as its selected, when it could also take the track head to the start position
and wait for start [space] to be selected.

Home and END buttons would make excellent shortcuts.

 

Worse than the lack of keyboard a shortcut is the lack of the actual feature, we can't have a shortcut for a function that doesn't exist.

When I need this I use the shift+encoder to reposition the playhead, moving by bars it's quite fast (mk3, not sure how its done in other models)
Double pressing the Stop button (for the controllers that have one) could also be used to return to the beginning, most software uses that... not Maschine tho.

 

This is what I do as well, though I've hit stop twice in a row just expecting it to work so many times I can't even count.

 

Shift + Encoder... I'll try to remember that.

All the same 'Home' button would be an excellent way to implement this, with 'Home + Shift' to go the start of the currrent scene or pattern.

I can't believe the software has been around 10 years and this hasn't been implement, NI must surely see the benifits of this in other software.

Is this already a suggestion?

 

Pretty useful for many other things too like moving around to copy/paste from the controller.

I think the real problem here is not having the transport function itself, if there was there would be a keyboard shortcut since everything else in the transport section has a key command. (Any keyboard shortcuts available in the menu can be customized in OSX BTW, so not sure which key specifically is used matters, not sure about windows)

I only found this one:

I can fish it out of the archive to the new suggestions forum, or someone can make a new one.
