Soundtoys Tremolator - Manual (Page 16)

To record automation data, you’ll first need to do a few things within Pro Tools. First,
bring up the Pro Tools automation window (see Pro Tools Manual for enabling
automation) and make sure ‘plug-in’ is enabled. .
Next, in the track you’re working on, select ‘auto-write’ to enable
the real-time recording of automation data.
Now, press play and fiddle with the Tremolator controls. Pro Tools should now record
any control changes you make. When the transport is stopped, the automation will
automatically switch to ‘auto-touch’.
Please Note: In auto-touch mode, the automation data you’ve just recorded will be
played back, and any new control changes you make will be written over the older
automation data. To prevent these new control changes from being recorded, change
the automation mode to ‘read’. To turn off all automation on this track, set the mode
to ‘off’.
It would be really cool to edit these control changes, wouldn’t it? Pro Tools has got
you covered. From the edit window, click on the waveform button and slide the
mouse over until you see Tremolator and its automated parameters. Choose whichev-
er parameter you’d like to edit (it would be nice to see all parameters at once, but for
now you’ve got to work on one at a time.)
