[AUTOMATION MATCHING]

(1) Let's first use the QuickJump Shift (Fader Module) + 1 on the numeric section of the Automation Module to ensure that we have all of the most important Automation functions visible simultaneously. Next, determine what value you need for the time to match back with the previously printed automation and input the value in Pro Tools > Setup > Preferences > Mixing > AutoMatch Time. For individual faders currently writing in Latch -> press the F switch for each channel to match out of volume automation individually.

(2) From the Automation 2 Soft Keys - press the AutoMatch button. This will not only match out of Volume automation - but every other type of automation on the entire desk. If you want to take it even further and Automatch all parameters on this and other workstations, use QuickJump Shift + 3 to access all automation pages - however with all of the functions defaulted to Multi-Workstation. Now pressing AutoMatch will ramp out of automation on all connected workstations.

(3) Use Command + Vol Enable from the Automation 3 Soft Keys to match out of all tracks actively writing volume automation. Without the Command modifier, pressing Vol Enable will give you an immediate Snap out of all currently writing volume automation with no ramp. Both of these variations work for every flavor of automation that is presented in the Automation 3 Soft Keys.
