Introducing ShortcutDAW: Learn DAW Shortcuts the Fun Way

We're thrilled to announce the launch of ShortcutDAW — an interactive learning platform designed to help music producers master keyboard shortcuts for their favorite Digital Audio Workstations.

Why We Built This

As music producers ourselves, we know how frustrating it can be to constantly reach for the mouse during a creative session. Every menu click breaks your flow. Every hunt for a tool costs you precious momentum.

Professional producers fly through their DAWs using keyboard shortcuts, but learning them has always been a chore — staring at shortcut lists, printing out cheat sheets, and hoping something sticks.

We wanted a better way. A way that's actually fun.

What's Included in This Release

Interactive Challenges

Practice shortcuts through timed challenges that test your memory and build muscle memory. Start easy and work your way up to more advanced shortcuts.

Multiple DAW Support

Launch includes support for:

• Pro Tools — The industry standard for recording and mixing
• Ableton Live — Perfect for electronic music and live performance
• Logic Pro — Apple's powerful DAW for Mac users

More DAWs coming soon based on community feedback!

Progress Tracking

See how you're improving over time. Track your accuracy, speed, and which shortcuts you've mastered versus which ones need more practice.

Points & Gamification

Earn points as you complete challenges. It's a small thing, but it makes practice sessions feel rewarding.

What's Next

This is just the beginning. Here's what we're working on:

• More DAWs — FL Studio, Cubase, Studio One, and Reaper are on our roadmap
• Custom shortcut sets — Create and share your own shortcut configurations
• Leaderboards — Compare your progress with other producers
• Mobile app — Practice on the go
