Copy Track Automation to
Sends
There may be times where you want a track’s
send settings or automation to mirror the set-
tings or automation in the track itself, for exam-
ple, when creating a headphone mix based on
the main mix, or when an effect level needs to
follow the levels in a main mix. You can copy
the current settings or the entire automation
playlist for the selected controls to the corre-
sponding playlist for the send.
To copy a track’s settings or automation to one of
its sends:
1 Select the tracks you want to edit by clicking
on the track names to highlight them.
2 Choose Edit > Automation > Copy to Send.
3 In the Copy to Send dialog, do any of the fol-
lowing:
• Select Current Value to copy the current set-
tings of the corresponding controls.
• Select Automation to copy the entire auto-
mation playlist for the corresponding con-
trols.
4 Select the controls you want to copy.
5 Select the sends to which to copy the automa-
tion, and click OK.
You can undo the results of the Copy to Send
command.
Copy To Send dialog
When overwriting automation, Pro Tools
presents a confirmation dialog. To suppress
this dialog, press Alt (Windows) or Option
(Mac) while clicking OK.
