I always use automation after recording multiple tracks, but it doesn't always work as it should. It's often defeated when I move a fader that's been automated. I'm told this is normal but automation is supposed to come back, but my automation is too often just dumped - or so it seems. When I move a fader on a track in READ mode and with automation and then hit stop twice or manually move to a different place on the timeline, some channels snap back to the automated setting while others stop responding to automation. I'll then re-record automation to that track, but sometimes that doesn't even work.
I opened a support ticket and the response was: "This is a feature. When controls are automated and being read, if you manually move a control it temporarily bypasses READ automation and it won't engage again until you toggle the transport."
I don't know what "toggling the transport" means. I wrote back to the tech telling him that, and asked for one or two examples of toggling the transport but it may take a while to get an anwer. I'm sure he'll respond as soon as he can, but I'm almost out of time on this project. Can anyone tell me what that means and give 1-2 examples?
Much obliged.
