RPD Utilities
Collection of commands and presets that I use every day. Creature comforts to take the technical out of the process as much as possible.
v3.0.0 Updates:
**** Breaking Change**: Create Track from Preset commands have been combined into the template command. This change only breaks the previously separate search command. Presets for the template command should remain unaffected. To use the search functionality in the template command, you can simply reassign the trigger to the default preset, or create one with a blank preset path.
Feature: Remains backwards compatible to Pro Tools 2022.12, updated and optimized to take advantage of SoundFlow SFX (Pro Tools 2025.10+ required).
Feature: Added Select Next Available Insert (Search) command.
Feature: Added Create Click Track template command.
Feature: Added pre-built 8x4 deck.
Feature: Added icons for all commands.
Improvement: Clear All Automation command changed to Clear Track Automation, can be set to clear all, pan, or plugin automation.
Improvement: Toggle Print Input Monitoring no longer needs to select the print track.
Improvement: Added utilities Check For Updates and Clear Plugin Cache (Pro Tools 2025.6 and earlier).
Improvement: Create Track from Preset can filter search results for keywords.
v2.1.14 Updates:
Request: Added field for a pre-assigned name for the aux track in Create Parallel Aux Track command.
Added check for existence of a track in the current session that conflicts with the aux track name in Create Parallel Aux Track command. (Prevents unforeseen errors during runtime)
v2.1.13 Updates:
- Significantly improved performance when adding tracks to and removing tracks from groups.
v2.1.12 Updates:
- Fixed an issue recalling saved track presets.
v2.1.9 Updates:
- Fixed an issue where an error would occur if only 2 tracks are selected in Pan Mono Tracks to Stereo command.
v2.1.6 Updates:
- Create Parallel Aux command now checks for available sends by temporarily revealing all sends on the track. Users can have only Sends A-E showing in the Edit window, and still use send numbers 6-10 (Sends F-J). This is also true for the First Free and Last Free send destinations.
v2.1.5 Updates:
- Potentially fixed an issue where the Save Track Preset dialog would not show in the Create Parallel Aux command.
v2.1.4 Updates:
- Fixed a few issues when saving track preset in Create Parallel Aux command.
v2.1.2 Updates:
Fixed an issue where an error would occur if no unused clips were selected in Delete Unused Clips command.
Added ability to use the first or last free send in Create Parallel Aux command (ignores send number when selected).
Added Collect Support Files command for reporting issues/bugs.
v2.1.0 Updates:
All commands updated through Pro Tools 2024.10. For users with supported versions of Pro Tools/SoundFlow, relevant SDK commands have been implemented.
Added command to create a new track from a track preset, both as a command template and a single search command.
v2.0.0 Updates:
All commands updated to support Pro Tools versions 2022.12 - 2024.3.
Some commands have been removed. These commands are already covered in other packages, thus providing little value, and pointless for me to support. Hopefully I've made up for this with the additions.
Added commands to set values in tempo, time signature, and key rulers at the current timeline selection.
Added template for deleting unused clips (the Delete option also dismisses the delete confirmation dialogs for each clip, and only confirms once at the beginning).
Added more commands for working with track groups.
Panning mono tracks to stereo is now a template, allowing users to set the pan value (same value used for left and right).
Create parallel aux is now a template, allowing users to determine what send slot is used on the source tracks.
Clear all automation now includes options to process selected tracks or all visible tracks.
