Trillium Lane Labs TL|Fauxlder

Final Version 1.2.1r2 for Mac OS X and Mac OS 9

March 16, 2004

PLEASE NOTE THIS PLUG-IN IS UNSUPPORTED. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

The TL Fauxlder plug-in is freeware that provides a way for advanced Pro Tools users to improve the usability of their TDM and RTAS plug-in menu’s by organizing them into categories with clear delineators. The TL Fauxlder plug-in itself has no DSP functions and consumes no DSP resources. It is simply designed to be renamed and inserted into the Plug-Ins folder. The TL Fauxlder plug-in does not need to be instantiated on a channel to be used.

Note: All versions of Pro Tools 6.4 and higher (TDM, LE and M-Powered) include plug-in menu organization by category, so TL Fauxlder is not necessary on these systems. For more information, see the bottom of this page.*

Plug-In Menus by Category

In Pro Tools 6.4, plug-ins are automatically organized by category (effect type). Plug-ins that do not fit into a standard category (such as the DigiRack Signal Generator), or third-party plug-ins that have not been defined by their developers, appear in the Other category. Plug-ins can appear in more than one category.

Plug in categories include:

  • EQ
  • Dynamics
  • Pitch Shift
  • Reverb
  • Delay
  • Modulation
  • Harmonic
  • Noise Reduction
  • Dither
  • Sound Field
  • Hardware
  • Instrument
  • Other
  • Wrapped Plug-Ins

To organize plug-ins by category:

  1. Choose Setups > Preferences.
  2. Click on the Display tab.
  3. Select Organize Plug-In Menus By Category.

Plug-in Favorites (Pro Tools 6.4 and higher)

For faster navigation to commonly used plugins, a plug-in can be designated a favorite. Favorite plug-ins are shown at the top of the plug-in menu, in addition to being shown within their plug-in category.

To designate a plug-in favorite:

  • Control-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) on a plug-in Insert button, and select the plug-in that you want to designate as a favorite.

To remove a plug-in favorite:

  • Control-click (Windows) or Command-click (Macintosh) on a plug-in Insert button, and select the favorite plug-in that you want to remove.
