Allow Latch Prime in Stop (Pro Tools HD and Com-
plete Production Toolkit 2 Only) When selected
and any tracks are in Latch mode, any automa-
tion-enabled controls on those tracks can be set
to new values while the transport is stopped by
touching or moving controls, to prepare for the
next automation pass.
Coalesce when Removing Slaves from VCA Group
(Pro Tools HD and Complete Production Toolkit 2
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 confirmation) 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 Complete Production Toolkit 2
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 in-
dependently linked. (This emulates the be-
havior of analog console VCA masters.)
• When deselected, the Main Volume, Mute,
Solo, Record Enable, and Input Monitoring
controls follow the VCA Master, but also re-
main available for independent linking
with groups.
Include Sends in Trim Mode (Pro Tools HD and
Complete Production Toolkit 2 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 Auto-
mation mode.
Include Control Changes in Undo Queue This op-
tion 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 ap-
pear in the Undo queue, and are undone if
any prior operation is undone.
• When deselected, mixer control changes
will not appear in the undo queue, allow-
ing you to undo other types of operations
without losing the current mixer settings.
Any set to default operations that affect mixer
controls will be entered into the Undo queue.
AutoMatch Time If you are writing automation
in Touch mode, when you release a fader or con-
trol, writing of automation stops and the auto-
mation data returns to its previous value. The
rate of return to the previous value is the
AutoMatch Time.
AutoGlide Time (Pro Tools HD and Complete Pro-
duction Toolkit 2 Only) Specifies how quickly
Pro Tools transitions (glides) from one automa-
tion value to another, when
AutoGlide mode is used.
