the captured automation states. You can do this
during playback or while the transport is
stopped.
2 Click the Punch Capture button in the Auto-
mation window to apply the captured automa-
tion states. The captured states are applied to all
automation types that are currently enabled in
the Automation window.
Capturing Automation Values for
All Controls
You can capture the state of all automatable
controls (except on tracks with their Automa-
tion Mode set to Off) in a session, regardless of
whether they are currently writing automation.
To capture the automation values of all controls:
„ When you reach a location where you want to
capture the current automation states, Alt-click
(Windows) or Option-click (Mac) the Capture
button.
To capture the automation values of all controls on
selected tracks only:
„
When you reach a location where you want to
capture the current automation states, Alt-Shift-
click (Windows) or Option-Shift-click (Mac) the
Capture button.
Punching Automation Values for
All Controls
You can punch all captured automation values
to another location on their corresponding
tracks (except those tracks with their Automa-
tion Mode set to Off).
To punch the automation values of all controls:
„
When you reach a location where you want to
apply the captured automation states, Alt-click
(Windows) or Option-click (Mac) the Punch
Capture button. Any track set to Read or Touch
are set to Latch. Any tracks set to Off are unaf-
fected.
To punch the automation values of all controls on
selected tracks only:
„
When you reach a location where you want to
apply the captured automation states, Alt-Shift-
click (Windows) or Option-Shift-click (Mac) the
Punch Capture button. Any selected tracks set to
Read
or Touch are set to Latch. Any selected
tracks set to Off are unaffected.
Capture and Trim Mode
The Capture and Punch Capture commands
work with Trim automation in the same way as
regular automation. Pro Tools saves Trim status
when capturing, so if you attempt to punch cap-
tured Trim values while displaying a non-Trim
automation playlist, Pro Tools will automati-
cally apply the values to the corresponding Trim
playlist.
