Suspend Write

Suspending the writing for a specific parameter during automation punches this parameter out of the automation pass.

  • To suspend the writing of automation data for a specific parameter, click the corresponding parameter.

  • To suspend the writing of automation data for all parameters/parameter groups, click All.

    Note

    When any of the options in the Suspend Write category are enabled, clicking All will disable these buttons.

Example

Imagine the following situation: To help you concentrate while working on a particular track, you mute several other tracks. However, because write automations are active on these tracks, this mute state is also automated during the next automation pass – a classic situation in mixing.

To avoid inadvertently excluding whole tracks from your mix in this way, you can exclude Mute from all automation writing. Simply click Mute in the Suspend Write category on the Automation Panel.
