Automation Trim Metering and Write Indication on Fader Modules
(Requires Pro Tools 11.3.1)
Strip meters on Fader Modules (and the Attention Track meters on the Automation Module) show Trim automation, and indicate
when automation is being written in any Write mode other than Trim.
Automation Trim Metering
While writing an initial Trim pass, the Right meter lights the LED at 0 to indicate you are writing Trim automation.
While editing an existing Trim pass, the Right meter lights LEDs above or below 0 to indicate the underlying Trim value.
On-screen in Pro Tools, this corresponds to the yellow (Trim) or blue (Composite) automation line.
Write Indication
Whenever a track is writing automation in any mode other than Trim, the Right meter lights the LED that corresponds to the un-
derlying automation level. For example, if in a Touch write mode the LED indicates where the fader will return when you release
it. If a track is the slave of a VCA, the lit LED corresponds to the blue automation line on-screen in Pro Tools.
In order for the meters to show Trim, the Pro Tools preference for Coalesce Trim Automation must be set to Manually.
