Default Re: How to Automate a Plugin\'s PRESET??

Quote:
Is it possible to Automate a plugin's Preset (i.e. program a patch change)??

I need to be able to change the plugin's presets several times over the length of the song.

The only work around that I know of is to copy the track several times and use the same plug-in on every channel and assign the corresponding Patch Preset.

Thanks,
Teacherman,
Use Preview mode. Start with the "main" preset you're using for most of the song. Put track in Latch. Turn Preview on, select the new preset. Press play. Where you want to change to occur, press Punch Preview, repeat as needed. You can do this with the software only but if you have an ICON ( I think I've seen you on that forum) you've got the buttons right there. It's fast and easy. There are other options as well, using the write to all and selected for example.

this technique works best if you've got the "Plugins Default to Auto Enabled" in the Mixing Prefs checked. As it should always be IMO.
