…is not working when using plugins. To be honest I’ve never tried to commit a plugin to the R/W function in a channel before now. It seems to be offered within the plugin GUI so I assume it should work? However it does not. What am I missing here?
After playing a track and doing the R/W process in the plugin(s), I open the channel options and click on ‘Show All Automation’. In the grey automation window, the only function that shows up is thechannel Volume. What’s going on here? Thanks for any help.
Seebas, since you answered my initial Q , maybe you can answer this one? In a Project I have created 12 slots for individual recorded tracks/events. I setup the 1st Channel to use the R/W function with a plugin and it worked perfectly. However…
Moving on to any subsequent Channel, doing all the correct moves setting up the R/W process, even turning off the instance in Channel 1, the R/W function is stuck on Channel 1. Is this normal? Is the R/W function intended (once it is used on a track/event) for a single ‘master track’ and not to be used on the other 11 Channels? Seems weird. I’ve also cleared all evidence of any used parameters from the 1st Channel. It seems to me I should be able to use the R/W function on the other Channels. Thanks for any insight as to what I am missing…again!
Grim, to be clear I was talking about 12 individual tracks on Channels 1 through 12. I did say ‘slots’, sorry for the confusion. And when I said that on [the] Channel 1 [track] the R/W function was ‘stuck on’ [in] Channel 1, I meant just that. Even turning the R/W function off in that Channel, when I tried to set the R/W function in a DIFFERENT Channel with a DIFFEENT plugin, all the parameter changes showed up in Channel 1, not the new Channel I had selected.
It was an older Project (C14) and I have now decided (having now moved all the 12 tracks to a newly created C15 Project where each channel records the new Parameters as they should) that my older Project was somehow compromized.
All this said (I’m using C 15.0.6) when using recorded tracks with audio in them, all I have to do is engage the R/W buttons in the appropriate Channel and the R/W buttons in the plugin on that Channel’s Insert are automatically engaged. In other words, I do not have to engage the RECORD button. Is this not true for everyone? The same is true for prerecorded MIDI tracks. Same for everyone?
Also note, when R/W buttons are engaged on the prerecorded Channel track, ALL R/W buttons on every plugin in the Channel Insert are engaged. If this is not what you wanted, then remember to disengage the R/W buttons on the plugins you don’t need to adjust.
I’ve encountered some odd read/ write behavior before. Where write stays engaged even though it shouldn’t.
I actually don’t quite follow your description even though it’s very detailed.
Record is not always needed I think for writing automation. I haven’t quite figured out the rules to this myself. It might have to do with the automation panel, which is something you may wanna look into.
Thanks Seebas, I haven’t looked at that Atomation Panel in a long time but I will again. It definitely has a huge control function that I should learn.
