So once you have recorded some real- time automation, but if you don't a control…surface and you don't like doing real- time automation with the mouse and you…prefer editing automation in step time,…you will need to be familiar with the track automation views of the Edit window.…So if we switch here to the Edit window, I'm looking at the lead vocal.…Now if I go to my Track View and I click on where it says waveform, I can switch…to the different automation playlist for this track.…Notice I also have one for each send that I'm using and the sends will create…themselves automatically as you add a new send to that track.…
So if I switch to volume, what I see here is the automation for this vocal is…represented by a line that's connected by these little dots and these are…called break points.…In an automation graph or playlist in Pro Tools, it's really just a game…of connect the dots.…Since automation is vector-based what Pro Tools is going to do, it's going to…take these dots and it's going to calculate the rate of change.…
