Hi Slau, In a previous message in this thread, you mentioned that the AAX plugs were some what accessible in 10.3.8. I had an instance last night working on someones rig that was running this build, and I just pulled up the 7 band EQ that is standard kit in Pro Tools. When navigating the plug, voice over stopped at the automation settings button and would not go down any further in to the actual EQ settings. Was I doing something wrong, or, are the AAX plugs hit and miss in the 10.3.8 build. It's not a big deal as I can take everything home when we're done working, but it'd be nice to throw some basic EQ in after tracking something. Thanks.
