PT Records Automation every time I press play no matter what!

[miked45]

This has been driving me crazy since updating to ProTools 8.

I try something to see how it sounds. I "undo" so I can hear how it was before. I try to "redo" it but I can't- because Protools recorded automation while I was playing. I didn't touch anything! Basically every time I press play I lose my entire redo queue, even though I haven't done anything to the session.

I've tried changing some of the preferences but nothing seems to change it. I even un-enabled my control 24, so it's not that that's sending automation info to PT.

Anyone else having this problem? Any thoughts on how to resolve it?

Thanks!

What automation mode is your track in, exactly? Read? Write? Touch? Latch?

Mike,

Just a guess here:

There's a preference called "Include control changes in undo queue." De-select it - it's ON by default.

It's not recording automation, just adding everything you do to the undo list..
