protools 9x Audio Track Record/Lock

[Cryos]

I just discovered that non HD based protools systems do not have the " Audio and Transport record lock" Feature. That's a Bummer! I'm guessing the only systems that offer this are Native systems and HD?

Do you mean this? The manuals does not say it is an only HD feature. TrackPunch is HD only.

"Loading Dailies Using RecordLock
Foley Recording
Dailies and similar types of transfers are comprised of multiple takes or scenes, each recorded while locked to unique time-of-day time code. In between each take, time code does not continue but stops completely. Because of this, the time code on dailies and similar source material is said to be “discontinuous” or discontinuous (also known as broken time code).
By default, Pro Tools drops out of recording when it goes offline due to broken time code. However, you can change this behavior so that Pro Tools will instead remain armed, waiting to begin recording again when lock is re-established with the time code of the next take."

But Transport Record Lock is HD only:

Transport RecordLock (Pro Tools HD Only) This option lets the Transport Record (the Record button in the Transport controls) be configured to either emulate a digital dubber, or to maintain legacy behavior for the Transport master Record.
• When selected, the Transport Record remains armed when playback or recording stops. This saves having to re-arm the Transport between takes, emulating digital dubber behavior.
• When not selected, the Transport Record disarms when Pro Tools is manually stopped or stops due to a loss of time code. This replicates standard Pro Tools recording behavior.
