Utilities Beta
Small jobs, done in seconds. Utilities is one window for small, single-purpose utilities — the kind of chore that would otherwise take a dozen clicks in your DAW.
Requires StudioTools 2.4.0 or later. Coming soon to the Mac App Store — beta testers have it now.
Open Utilities
- Click the StudioTools icon in the menu bar.
- Choose Utilities….
When a StudioTools window is in front, Utilities… is also in the StudioTools app menu.
Pick a utility
The sidebar lists the utilities. Click one to open it on the right — its name and a one-line summary are at the top. Utilities remembers the one you used last and opens it next time.
When a utility can't run yet
Some utilities need something before they can do their job — for example an open Pro Tools session, or a newer version of Pro Tools. Then the utility tells you what's missing instead of showing its controls:
- Open a Session in Pro Tools — start Pro Tools and open a session. StudioTools connects to Pro Tools automatically, and the utility appears.
- Pro Tools 2025.06 or Later Needed — the utility uses Pro Tools features that were added in that version, and tells you which version you're running. Update Pro Tools to use it.
Available utilities
| Utility | What it does | Needs |
|---|---|---|
| Shift Markers | Moves the markers on a ruler by an offset, or snaps them to your selection — for example review comments from a bounce without the count-in, which land too early in the session. | Pro Tools 2025.06 or later |
