What editors are saying

“Spread to Tracks does in one press what I used to do with eight drags. That is the entire pitch and it is enough.”

AR Alex ReyesMulticam & live events

“The unnest is the one I would pay for on its own. Trims intact, one undo, none of the copy-and-paste dance.”

MT Mara TolliverBranded documentary

“I built a blur button on B in about ten seconds. Three months later it is the key I hit most.”

Editbelt in action

Out of the nest, in place

One undo. Trims and effects intact.

Ten angles, one click

Stacked and ready to synchronise.

Build your own button

Any effect, on a key you choose. Ten seconds to make, and it stays.

  1. Open it In the Build tab, click + Add a button. The popup opens over Premiere.
  2. Find the effect Start typing and the list narrows to the effects Premiere actually has installed. Pick Gaussian Blur.
  3. Name it, key it Give it a short name and a single letter. Both are optional — leave them blank and it takes the effect’s own name and no shortcut.
  4. Use it The button is now in your Build tab, and it stays there between projects. Click it, or press B while the panel has focus.

One catch worth knowing: the effect lands at its default settings. Premiere’s saved presets are not reachable by a plugin, so dial the effect in once on an adjustment layer and copy it from there.

FAQs

What does Editbelt install, and what can it see?

A single panel, through Creative Cloud. It reads the project you have open and nothing else — no files, no network.

What if a shortcut clashes with one of Premiere’s?

Your keys only fire while the panel has focus, so Premiere’s own shortcuts keep working everywhere else.

How does Editbelt make adjustment layers?

It reuses the one in your project. Premiere’s API cannot create one, so make a single layer once per project.

What if I share a project with someone who doesn’t have it?

It opens normally. Editbelt only ever makes ordinary Premiere clips, nests and layers — nothing that needs the panel to exist.

Editbelt’s limitations

Undo grouping

Some tools cost two presses of undo. Premiere gives plugins no way to join those steps into one.

Plain letter shortcuts

They work while the panel has focus. No panel can claim a key across the whole of Premiere.

Effect presets

Your buttons apply an effect at its default settings. Premiere’s saved presets aren’t reachable by plugins.

One adjustment layer needed

Make one per project with File › New › Adjustment Layer. After that, every layer tool just works.
