Routing Automation - Why Isn't this Done?!
Quote:
I could see this being much easier on HD Native. Perhaps that is the reason why MC or Logic or any other DAW for that matter could do this since forever I work on smaller projects than you guys but Import Session data has been a great workaround for me. What I would really like is to be able to save presets of what parameters I would to import over. The MC import without an AAF is a brilliant idea though. If Avid ever does that it could even incorporate the EDL as part of the MC project file and PT to automatically calculate the changes... Apologies for deviating from the main subject!

Re: Routing Automation - Why Isn't this Done?!
My first console was a Harrison MPC and I really liked it. It featured automated routing that was used to dynamically commit sounds to various pre dubs. I transitioned to ICON/Pro Tools and I far prefer virtual mixing. Not having to commit to pre dubs allows for far more creative mixing time.
However there are still occasions where automated routing would be very handy in Pro Tools. I may be way off the mark but I always assumed that it was not possible because of the dynamic delay compensation that would be required during playback. If it is possible then I think it would be a neat feature.

Is to have TWO sets of indentical sends ... 1 set POST fader and 1 set PRE fader ... and mute between them as needed. |

However, and just for the record, the DFC has always had both Delay Compensation AND routing automation. |

Re: Routing Automation - Why Isn't this Done?!
Automated routing would be massively useful in PT.
I thought maybe they were going to implement this as part of the latest Atmos improvements. That seemed to be what was being hinted at, but I can't see anything in 12.8 that can achieve what I was hoping for. Adding to the things other have requested: Dare I say 'folders in the region list' again, I've only been saying it for going on 20 years! The crazy amount of time I've wasted trawling and searching through that region list. If I could have that time back, I would be a younger and less grumpy man.

Each DX track has 2 dedicated aux sends to the inputs of those 2 Busses. The output is assigned to go nowhere. (yes, a bus called Nowhere) My template is setup so that all my DX tracks are already setup to go to "Re-assign" bus 1. And I can easily reassign any audio clip to bus 2 if needed. Now, you can do that with the ADR tracks as well. However, I have a separate ADR processing chain that I run my ADR to first, that has some additional plugins that I sometimes need just for ADR, and that processing bus then also has the same output assignments. But I have that preset in my template to Bus 2. So, you can easily setup assigns in your template using auxes that are automated. My biggest wish is still automated pre and post send options. Oh, and for futzes, I have a couple of dedicated futz tracks. I am rarely dragging audio around. |

Re: Routing Automation - Why Isn't this Done?!
No idea if there's a technical, behind the scenes / deep in the code base, reason why routing automation isn't a simple feature to add directly to PT - but I can see that it would interfere with PT's current behaviour, and could potentially cause catastrophic data loss in some situations, whereby changing an output assignment wipes out existing automation.

As I said above, there are workarounds, just wish we didn't need them ... routing automation is a staple of post audio. Peace, |
