Automation Capture Feature
You can capture the current automation values 
of actively writing controls and store them as 
snapshots. See “New Automation Capture Fea-
ture” on page 77 for details. 
On D-Control and D-Command, up to 48 snap-
shots can be stored and recalled. These stored 
snapshots are saved with the Pro Tools session.

Before you can store automation values as a 
snapshot preset, they must be loaded into the 
Capture buffer.

In the Automation Enable controls, press the 
corresponding switch to enable each automa-
tion type you want to capture (Volume, Pan, 
Mute, Send level, Send pan, Send mute, or Plug-
in).

In the Management section, press the Snap 
key to display the Capture commands in the 
Soft Keys section.

Start playback, and if necessary, touch a write-
enabled control to start writing automation. 
The Capture switch in the Soft Keys section 
lights to indicate that a capture is possible.

When the currently writing controls reach a 
value you want to capture, press the Capture 
switch in the Soft Keys section.

Keys section lights to indicate captured values 
are available to punch.
Storing and Recalling Captured 
Automation Values
After automation values are captured, the cap-
tured state can be stored in any of 48 available
