Re: automation deletion
Hi Frank Slau, Hit control delete this will delete ALL automation for that track. This works almost all the time for me!

Re: automation deletion
Chuck, Be more specific. Do you mean Control-Delete after the steps I described or Control-Delete anywhere in the track? Control-Delete while Volume is showing or does Waveform view work as well? Did you see this somewhere in the documentation? If so, please indicate where.

RE: automation deletion
Sometimes I'm convinced that is what is required to get the Mac to do some things. LOL Kind of like doing a restore to a time machine backup point. I broke Pro Tools and had to do just that to get things back. Well, actually, Dropbox was in the mix as well. LOL J.

Re: automation deletion
Hi So I think that, possibly, the problem is that I am not scrubbing in that track. I just hear track 1. How do I change this? I can't seem to find it in the manual.

Delete alone works just fine. My mileage does vary, Slau On Feb 21, 2011, at 12:01 PM, Chuck Reichel wrote: Hi Slau, Yes after the steps you said. Just make sure volume is checked in the automation window and that audio tracks volume is showing . This control delete is a key command i think? If I recall control delete wipes out all automation for that track. By the way if it is a master fader track and is being very naughty in the deletion process! just delete the master fader track and re do it!
