Only in Pro Tools, safely
Hotkeys fire only while Pro Tools is the front app. While you are typing, or in an Open/Save dialog, SlipTap steps aside automatically — so a render never fires when you do not mean it to.
Stop mousing between plug-in windows.
Post-production, dialogue and mixing engineers run the same AudioSuite processing hundreds of times a day — find the right window among a dozen open plug-ins, click, render, repeat.
How engineers use it
Pick a scenario — every one is just an assigned window and a key.
Repetitive cleanup, one key
De-noise, de-click, de-reverb — assign each to its own button or key. Whatever the take needs, fire its Render with a single key, without digging through open windows.
Learn and Render, split
Select a clean ambience region and Learn it in your ambience-match plug-in. Then land on the gap and Render the match in — Learn and Render each on their own key.
Switch by task
Drama mix, spots, broadcast — save a button set for each and switch profiles when the session changes.
Render, Learn, Send — each its own trigger
In SlipTap, set each slot's Run Mode to Render, Learn, or Send and optionally give it a hotkey. Trigger the slot and SlipTap presses the corresponding control in the assigned open plug-in window — only while Pro Tools is in front.
Find and arrange plug-in windows
Bring any open plug-in window to the front from a list. Auto-arrange cluttered AudioSuite windows in tiled or cascading layouts, and check at a glance that every assigned plug-in is actually open.
Profiles for every workflow
Save your button sets and layouts as profiles, switch between them as the session changes, and back them up in one step.
How it works
Set it up in three steps — just point SlipTap at the plug-in windows you already use.
1Open
Open your AudioSuite plug-ins in Pro Tools as usual.
2Assign
Run Assign Plug-in — each open window connects to a button, with an optional hotkey.
3Trigger
Hit the key or click the panel — SlipTap presses Render, Learn or Send inside the plug-in for you.
