Automation Dialog Access in Groups

[Steve@ZooWest]

Is there a shortcut to add parameters for a plug-in in the automation dialog window to all tracks in a group? That sounds kind of clumsy; here's what I'm trying to do:

Multiple vocal tracks have a particular compressor inserted. I'd like to add threshold and gain to the parameters I can access and change here and there throughout a session.

Don't think so.

But if you select the Pref "plugins default to auto enabled", then they already will be and when you link the insert in the group dialog, they'll all follow.

Excellent, thanks for the tip.

In groups there is a way to link plug in parameters of certain inserts.

When I have a similar situation I put the plug ins in the same slot and then link them via a group. SO if I adjust a parameter that same adjustment gets adjusted on all grouped tracks with the plug in in the same slot.

I do not think its relative adjustments, so all the settings have to be the same on all tracks.. So with multiple tracks of background vocals for example eq's and whatever plugs ins can be linked so change 1 and they all match.

the groups have multiple pages and can be flexible for this type of thing. Maybe have to peruse the manual to make sense of it but have a poke around and see.

You can change them on one then copy-special that automation to all the others.
