Punching Captured Automation
Values
After automation values are captured, they can
be punched (written) to another location in the
track. Any tracks set to Read or Off are unaf-
fected.
â—† If you punch during playback, the automa-
tion mode of any track set to Touch is set to
Latch and writing begins at the captured value.
â—† If you punch while the transport is stopped,
the automation mode of any track set to Touch
is set to Latch and the control is primed at the
captured value.
To punch captured automation values:
1 Move to a location where you want to apply
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.
