How to Quickly Bounce Out Tracks In Pro Tools Processed or Unprocessed

In this video, I will show you how to quickly bounce out all or some individual channels at one time in pro tools. Processed or unprocessed. Super simple and super fast. No more soloing channels to bounce out drums or whatever it is you need individual channels for. In Pro Tools 2020 it’s super fast and simple.

 

Record Enable All Of Your Channels In Pro Tools

In this video, I will show you how to record enable all of your tracks at once with one click. I also show you how to change your WAV view/mode to volume view/mode with one click as well as muting and soloing all channels with one click.

 

 

 

 

How to Bypass All of Your Plugins in a Pro Tools session W/One Click! + other Pro Tools Shortcuts.

In this video, I show you how to bypass all of your plugins in your session with one click and a few other shortcuts that you will use over and over again. When doing this shortcut you need to start on the top plugin row to bypass all plugins. Going down to the second row will bypass the 2nd row and everything below but leaving row one on.

Tightening Up Your Mix – Using Elastic Audio, Snap Clip to Cursor, Lining to Grid

In this video, I go over 3 ways to align audio files to tighten up your mix to get a more commercial sound. I go over using Elastic Audio, Snapping the Clip to Cursor/Play Head, and Lining to Grid. I also have a few bonus shortcuts/tips if you don’t know them already such as separating a clip, tab to transient, and a few others.

Would love to hear from you about what you might do differently on your tracks.

As always thank you for watching!
