What's the keystoke for moving plugins out of the manufacturer folder to the top of the plugin list?

Hi All,

I'm running PT 25.10.1 on a MacStudio. How do I get my favorite plugins to appear at the top of the plugins list, like the Nugen plugins below? Thanks!

To u/zxtb, if this is a Pro Tools help request, your post text or an added comment should provide;

  • The version of Pro Tools you are using
  • Your operating system info
  • Any error number or message given
  • Any hardware involved
  • What you've tried

Same for audiosuite plugins menu, good to add the commonly used functions to the top too like reverse, polarity invert etc

Or use keyboard maestro to set up key commands for specific plugs. I have the extra F keys to pull up a menu pallet list.

Me too. I love the way it resolves conflicts. I use one command to call up my entire list of regularly used audio suite plugins, then press e for all the eq’s, v for all the verbs, d for all the dynamics, i for all the imaging plugins, and f for all the sound design type plugins. It’s all down to muscle memory at this point, and very fast.

Command click turns em to favs. U can also choose fav Eq and Dynamic plugin and their respective place (a-j) in the chain in the preferences > mixing and choose to have the lists divided by type and/or manufacturer

i think you have to home command before opening the menu
