Hi Santiago! Yes there is. You can open any plug-in window, option+click on bypass and that would bypass all plug-ins at once.

Pro Tools Plug In Window

  • Plug-in Window:
    • All of the plug-ins has a similar set up.
      • *At the right corner it has target button, if you check of it will allow you to bring other plug-ins.
      • *It also has a section to choose the track, insert slot and type of insert that you choose. You can do all that without leaving the plug-in window.
