The console

Every tool in one panel. Open one, work, open the next — nothing reloads and nothing takes you away. Pull it out into its own window and it stays on top, next to your DAW.

What it is for

The full pages explain, and they are where the measurements are documented. The console does not explain: it works. Pick Audio or Video, tick the families you want on screen, and open as many as you need at once — they stay open, side by side, and you can drag them into the order you work in. It is the same tools, not a lighter version of them.

One thing it cannot do, and no browser can: a clip dragged straight out of a Pro Tools or Logic timeline is not a file as far as your browser is concerned, so nothing will happen. Bounce first, then drop the bounced file. Everything else works the way you would expect.

Every tool

The console runs them all. Each one also has its own page, where the formulas, the reference tables and the reasoning are written out — that is where to go when you want to know why a number is what it is.
