I can't find a way to automate the macro knobs! It defaults to automating only the first parameter, rendering the macro controls pointless. Does anyone know how to do this? Is there an alternative? I looked into Waves Studio Rack but that is only compatible with Waves plugins...

Please upvote to get this fixed!

Yes my friend. This is something Studio One really needs. I came from Cubase which uses QUICK CONTROLS. When automating Surface MIDI controllers, this feature is so vital to program every track and every VST instrument and every effect with the first 8 parameters across all projects. But in Studio one, it is a laborious manual thing that changes with every effect and with every project. IMPOSSIBLE to use.

Please Presonus, ADD A VERSION of "quick Controls" for each track and each instrument and each effect. Just make the first 8 parameters an "auto control 1-8" or something.
