Capture Automation
You can capture current automation values at
one location in a session and quickly apply
them in another location with the Capture and
Punch Capture commands. The Capture com-
mand temporarily stores the value of all controls
currently writing automation, and the Punch
Capture commands writes those stored values to
all enabled automation types.
 ICON Systems allow for the capture of up to
48 different values, or snapshots.
 All other systems allow for the capture of a
single value.
Capturing Automation Values
You can capture the current automation values
of actively writing controls.
To capture automation values:
1 Make sure all tracks whose automation values
you want to capture are in a write-enabled state
(Write, Touch, Latch, Touch/Latch or Latch).
2 Make sure the automation types you want to
capture are enabled in the Automation window
(Volume, Pan, Mute, Send level, Send pan, Send
mute, or Plug-In).
3 Start playback. When you reach a location
where you want to capture the current automa-
tion states, click the Capture button in the Auto-
mation window.
The Punch Capture button in the Automation
window lights to indicate a captured value is
available to punch.
