Default Capture feedback light

When I do "Capture," the little green light for "Punch Capture" lights up. But then if I do another Capture, there's no feedback on the Dock showing me that I successfully blew out the old parameters and now have a new capture. Is there a better way? Or maybe it would be cool if the green Punch Capture light could blink a couple of times indicating 'new parameters saved!'

Thoughts?

Default Re: Capture feedback light

The same applies to the normal Automation Window within PT, I think.
I would vote for it on ideascale... .

Meanwhile, one can clear the capture buffer by clicking Capture in stop or if no automation is currently writing, as a workaround against the uncertainty.

Yes. And I need to amend my original post, because I think Capture continually adds to the buffer every time you hit it. So for instance, Track 1 is in the buffer. If you capture Track 2 without clearing the buffer, then both tracks are in the buffer. I think for now I just need to remember to clear it so I can watch the light turn off and then on again.

Seems, the adding to the buffer only occurs with Alt-Shift-Capture.
Not with a simple (No-Modifier-) Capture of currently writing parameters.

With track 1 and 2 in the buffer, and only track 2 is selected, Alt-Shift-Punch-Capture will only punch to track 2, whereas a No-Modifier-Punch-Capture will punch to track 1 and 2.
