Viewing Automation - DigiDesign Pro Tools Reference Manual

Automation Safe
Outputs, sends, and plug-ins can be placed in
Automation Safe mode. In Automation Safe
mode, any automation associated with an Out-
put window (such as track or send level, pan-
ning, or mute), or plug-in on that track, is pro-
tected from being overwritten while automating
other items on that track.
Automation Safe enabled send
Automation Safe mode suspends automation re-
cording for the selected track output, send, or
plug-in that is enabled. You can also suspend
automation recording and playback session-
wide from the Automation window. See "En-
abling and Suspending Automation" on
page 708.

Viewing Automation

Pro Tools creates a separate playlist in the Edit
window for each type of automation in a track,
including a playlist for each type of Trim auto-
mation. This data can be viewed and edited in
the same way as audio and MIDI data.
You can easily toggle between different
Track Views. See "Changing Track Views"
on page 337.
