FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
I don't care about "cancel track record". What would be one billion times more helpful would be for Pro Tools to have the option to auto create a new playlist EVERY time you press record. Surely with the technology it takes to make punch record work, it wouldn't take much more to create auto create playlist. |

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
It does but you have to be in loop record mode and I think it has to cycle to the end of the selection to generate the playlist. It's not exactly what you're asking for but similar.

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
Yeh... close, but not it.
Surely there would be plenty of people who would benefit from that? |

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
Make a shortcut for “create new playlist” (ctrl+shift+\ I think)
I set it to the top two buttons of my Kensington, makes tracking a breeze. |

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
I have a Keyboard Maestro macro that duplicates a playlist and goes into record when I hit opt-ctl-cmd-space bar. Very handy and simple to set up.

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
That’s a good one.
We gotta be careful what you ask for around here- they mess up more than they fix. Best solution is finding a workaround outside of avid’s control. Whomever they consult for new features seem to not consider 99% of actual working situations or practical things (like proper delay compensation)...things you need to maximize the value of your time in the studio. |

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
How is anyone creating a shortcut for "create new playlist"?
The only option for a new playlist seems to be "New...", which is also the same text used to create a new TRACK... so this does not seem to work for playlists? |

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
Not in OS X shortcuts- you need an app that will perform keystrokes. Kensington trackball works or keyboard maestro will do this for you.

Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Auto create playlist on record
Logic Pro X does this. Every time you hit record it puts that take into a track folder. In fact, you have to go into Preferences and specifically ask Logic NOT to do it.
