DNA Music Labs HOTKEY-MATRIX-PT Hotkey Matrix Control Surface for Pro Tools

DNA Music Labs' Hotkey Matrix provides one-touch operation of Pro Tools, creating an easy, intuitive creative workflow.

Virtual controls on your computer screen come with several fundamental problems: they can be hidden, their location changes, and they have different sizes or resolutions. This requires a rigid focus with your eyes on the screen to make an action — we don't get to take advantage of our memory. The Hotkey Matrix addresses these problems unlike any other control surface.

The main concept of the Hotkey Matrix is to have a permanently located, one-key shortcut for a given function in Pro Tools. This simplicity boosts efficiency, as actions that normally require multiple key presses or mouse clicks only take a single button push. This concept also takes advantage of our memory, because we will always know exactly where and how to execute a command.
