What's new in 0.3.3

Cut audio

  • A new node that keeps just one part of a sound, or takes a part out and joins what's before and after it. The file keeps its own format unless you pick another.

Split into clips

  • Cuts one video or sound into several shorter files: every so many seconds, into equal parts, at the times you list (0:30, 1:15), or just the parts you list (0:10-0:25, 1:00-end). Wire it into Save and you get one file per clip. It also works after effects like Dither.
  • Two new workflows to start from: Split a video into clips and Cut a part out of a sound.

Installing Toolbox

Download the file for your computer from the Assets list below, then follow the steps for it. Toolbox isn't signed with a paid Apple or Microsoft certificate, so the first launch takes one extra click.

Computer File
Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer) Toolbox-…-mac-arm64.dmg
Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit) Toolbox-…-win-x64.exe
Linux (64-bit) Toolbox-…-linux-x86_64.AppImage

Mac

  1. Open the .dmg and drag Toolbox into Applications.
  2. Open Toolbox from Applications. macOS says it can't check the app for malware: click Done (or OK).
  3. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down to the line about Toolbox, and click Open Anyway. Confirm with your password.

On macOS 14 (Sonoma) or older you can instead right-click Toolbox in Applications, choose Open, then Open again.

You only do this once. If macOS ever says Toolbox "is damaged", run this in Terminal and open it again:

xattr -cr /Applications/Toolbox.app

Windows

  1. Run the .exe. If Windows shows "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway.
  2. Toolbox installs for your user (no admin needed) and opens. It's in the Start menu afterwards.

Linux

  1. Make the file executable: right-click → Properties → Permissions → "Allow executing", or chmod +x Toolbox-*.AppImage.
  2. Double-click it, or run ./Toolbox-*.AppImage.

If it doesn't start: on Ubuntu 22.04 and newer install FUSE with sudo apt install libfuse2 (libfuse2t64 on 24.04). If it then complains about the sandbox, start it with ./Toolbox-*.AppImage --no-sandbox.

Good to know

  • ffmpeg comes inside the app. The Download node fetches yt-dlp the first time you use it and keeps it up to date, since sites like YouTube change often.
  • iPhone photos (HEIC) open in the Mac app. On Windows and Linux, export them as JPEG first.
  • Toolbox updates itself: when a newer version is out, press Update in its top bar, then Restart to update. Your graph stays as it was. On a Mac this works once Toolbox is in Applications.
  • ProRes encodes on Apple Silicon's media engine on a Mac and in software elsewhere. HEVC uses an NVIDIA, Intel or AMD GPU on Windows when there is one, otherwise software.
