Power Mute

Mutes everything except lights and HDRI in one click, making transparent renders from Blender scenes easy.

What Power Mute does

Power Mute is a lightweight Blender add-on for isolating what you want to render. With a click from the Outliner, it hides everything in the scene except the lights and HDRI, so you can produce transparent-background renders while keeping the lighting intact.

You can also isolate only the selected objects. Visibility keyframes are inserted automatically, which makes it safe to animate objects appearing and disappearing. There is no need to manage collections or View Layers, and the tool supports both the Cycles and Eevee render engines. It suits artists who regularly render single assets or passes from busy scenes.
