Not a deal: but a cool thing you may already own in T-RackS 6 (Modules Manager)

[user905133]

FWIW, earlier today I had effectively deleted Modules Manager by renaming it and the shortcut to remove it from the start menu.  Forgot about that until shutting down a few minutes ago.  THE BOTTOM LINE: I ran the current IK Product Manager, and reinstalled T-Racks 6 MAX.  That reinstalled everything including the Modules Manager and the Start Menu shortcut.

Oh that's awesome!

How odd.

So far there are 17 people who have either Liked, Thanked, or Great Idea'd my first post on this topic. Maybe a couple more who have commented without first reacting. I'm assuming that most of them didn't know about this utility either before I called it to their attention.

I wonder how many people got the shortcut and how many didn't. Any T-RackS users who are still following the conversation, did you get the Start menu shortcut?

Now I want to double check those other systems I was so sure also didn't get the shortcut. I don't want to accuse IK Multimedia of trying to obscure their own utility unless they are, y'know, trying to obscure their own utility.😄

Usually if anything, it's hard to get installers NOT to slap shortcuts all over the place, Start menu, desktop, whatever. Peeve of mine, actually, installers that don't bother to ask whether you want to clutter your desktop with links to their program(s). I thought it was kinda weird that IK would go to all the trouble to come up with this thing and then bury it, but now I look and I don't have a link to the T-RackS standalone either.

Video is posted (with a shoutout to @Starship Krupa and everyone here in these forums, of course!) 😀

 

Ty for the info, I didn't know there is another app called "modules manager" for it since I can easily open modules manager via standalone t-racks mastering console, manager is located at bottom right corner.

Which the idea of doing would make me groan if I hadn't stumbled on Modules Manager....

....which, nope, no shortcut on either of my systems although thanks to Arda Demir I now do notice the gear icon down in the lower right corner of the standalone. Second time in my life I've ever run the standalone, I prefer doing it all inside the DAW.
