Hey slau, thanks. works just fine. Thanks also to mike. i will try that as well.
The whole thing would be easier with a control surface, but i think i should be able to get by with all this. i guess the only other interesting question is this. is there any way of selecting all tracks for spiffic tasks like say automation. Normally when i am mixing in sonar, i select all tracks, and turn on automation. is this possible in protools, or do we need to go and physically select each track for automation individually. Sorry about the endless amount of questions. I am almost ready to make the jump from sonar to protools in my studio. i think. just trying to think of things in my work flow that i may need to accomplish when using tools.
