Allow Latch Prime in Stop (Pro Tools HD and
Pro Tools with Complete Production Toolkit
Only)
When selected and any tracks are in Latch
mode, any automation-enabled controls on those
tracks can be set to new values while the transport
is stopped by touching or moving controls, to pre-
pare for the next automation pass.
Coalesce when Removing Slaves from VCA
Group (Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools with
Complete Production Toolkit Only)
This option
determines the behavior when removing slave
tracks from a VCA-controlled group.
• When selected, any automation on the VCA
Master is automatically coalesced (without con-
firmation) to its slave tracks when the tracks are
removed from the group.
• When not selected, a confirmation dialog lets
you choose whether or not to coalesce the VCA
Master automation to the slave tracks.
Standard VCA Logic for Group Attributes
(Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools with Complete
Production Toolkit Only)
This option determines
which Mix group attributes may be selected in the
Group dialog when the group is assigned to a VCA
Master.
• When selected, the Main Volume, Mute, Solo,
Record Enable, and Input Monitoring controls
on slave tracks follow the VCA Master only and
are not available to be independently linked.
(This emulates the behavior of analog console
VCA masters.)
• When deselected, the Main Volume, Mute, Solo,
Record Enable, and Input Monitoring controls
follow the VCA Master, but also remain avail-
able for independent linking with groups.
Include Sends in Trim Mode (Pro Tools HD and
Pro Tools with Complete Production Toolkit
Only)
This option determines the Trim status of
Send faders when a track is put in Trim mode.
• When selected, Send faders go into Trim mode
along with the Main Volume fader.
• When deselected, the Main Volume fader goes
into Trim mode, but the Send fader stays in the
corresponding standard Automation mode.
Include Control Changes in Undo Queue This
option determines whether certain mixer control
changes, such as moving a fader or pan control, are
entered into the Undo queue.
• When selected, mixer control changes appear in
the Undo queue, and are undone if any prior op-
eration is undone.
• When deselected, mixer control changes will not
appear in the undo queue, allowing you to undo
other types of operations without losing the cur-
rent mixer settings.
Any set to default operations that affect mixer con-
trols will be entered into the Undo queue.
AutoMatch Time If you are writing automation in
Touch mode, when you release a fader or control,
writing of automation stops and the automation
data returns to its previous value. The rate of return
to the previous value is the AutoMatch Time.
AutoGlide Time (Pro Tools HD and Pro Tools with
Complete Production Toolkit Only)
Specifies how
quickly Pro Tools transitions (glides) from one au-
tomation value to another, when AutoGlide mode
is used.
