Isn't this the same as using a rack and grouping the plugins you want?

@denork: no, not at all.. i mean, it's all there in the description really. you can use this device to bind the insertion of any device to a key on your computer's keyboard as part of your default live template.
for instance; in my case the [1] key puts the native 'utility' device onto the selected track, [2] 'eq-eight', [3] drum buss etc.
i find the live browser increasingly cumbersome to use with its (for me) pointless separation of plugin types, so it's useful to have my most-used devices bound to key strokes. and then elisabethhomeland's visual browser helps with keeping track of the rest.

Hi there,
I've got vers. 3.02 of Shortcut buddy (using Ableton Live 11).
Whatever effect, plug-In or whatsoever I put in the device, it always starts a new window of Ableton live and not what I wanted.
So on first try I was wondering why Ableton opens up half a douzen times.
Anybody know this issue?

ok, I got a very fast reply by Noir Labs.
It doesn't work if you enabled "multiple Instances" in the Ableton Preferences.
So disabling this will fix the problem immediately.

So awesome 95% of the time!
My only issue is I can NOT get it working with Ni Kontakt, Lunacy Audio's CUBE, or Arturia Pigments - I've tried everything and I just can't get it to work
Any ideas?

Just tested on Live 11 and still not working with all Arturia + Lunacy instruments or Kontakt (and yes I'm dragging in presets). The preset is in the ShortcutBuddy slot but it just doesnt do anything when click the button like it does for all the other devices I've added
Hoping for an update asap 🤞
But this plugin is totally amazing for everything else!

Is this confirmed compatible with Ableton Live 12 in general?

maybe I'm missing something, but is there a reason I can't patch this plugin? I'm pretty new to max for live, but when I try and open the max device editor for this plugin nothing shows up.

My shortcut buddy has stopped working! When I go to drag a rack into the Insert Effect slot, it doesn't do anything. It was just working an hour ago, anyone else having an issue?

i'm having an issue with live 12.1.5, windows 11.
when i try to open up pro-q 3 with a shortcut, it opens up a windows dialogue asking what app i want to use to open the vstpreset
it works fine with native plugins like live's saturator
