Default Automation Window in PT2018

Hey,

Just a quick question: When I open the automation window (command + keypad 4) in PT 2018.1 (Non HD) I just get very few options (Plugin, vol, pan, out, svol, span, smute). Is all the "extended" parameters only available in HD? Or am I doing something wrong? I am looking for stuff such as "Write to end" etc....

I have a plugin on the ch
I have added an automation parameter etc

Thanks//O

It’s available on Vanilla too. On the left bottom of the track there is an arrow. Click the arrow and the automations shows as a separate submenu track.

Yeah, thanks! No, I'm looking for the extended automation parameters in the "automation window". If you open it with command + keypad 4, you should get a lot of options like "write on stop", "write to end" etc

Those are HD only.

I literally can't believe this. How can they get away with that? Seems crazy to me. I really want to move to pro tools, but to spend more than double the cost - 80 bucks a month rather than 30...just for those features. It's criminal.
I think i am gonna have to sit it out for that reason alone. What a shame!
Do you think there is any chance they will give those features to all users at some point?

What do you need to do that can't be done on your current setup?

As for the feature being added to the "standard" version of PT, that's tough to say. I was pleasantly surprised when Avid added VCA's and HEAT on nn-HD(now Ultimate) PT.
