Automation Mode Controls

The Automation Mode controls are used to display and set au-
tomation modes. These switches light to indicate that at least
one channel is in that automation mode. If multiple channels
are selected and set to different automation modes, all appli-
cable mode switches are lit.
These Automation Mode controls let you change automation
modes during playback, and mirror the function of the
on-screen Automation Mode selector for each track.
