Hi Chad,

I'm assuming you have an aux input with the delay plug-in instantiated and that 
a send is routed to a bus which is being received by the aux input.

In the automation window, enable Send Mute automation. With a control surface, 
the following procedure is simple. You mute the send, set the track's 
automation to Write and engage the transport. Without a surface, you'll need to 
go to the Track's output window to the sends section and mute the send and then 
enable Write mode and engage the transport.

Wherever you want the track to send to the delay, you'll need to click the Mute 
button to toggle its state. Again, with a control surface, it's quite easy and 
intuitive. If your unmuted sections are particularly short and you find it 
tough to perform the button presses in quick succession, you can use a slightly 
different method for the mute automation. Start with muting and engaging the 
transport in write mode. Select the word or words you wish to unmute to the 
delay, make sure you're still in Write mode, unmute the send and engage the 
transport. The track will only play for the duration of the selected word or 
words. Automation will be written for that section as unmuted and will revert 
to the muted state after the selection. You can repeat this process for each 
word or section.

By default, automation is set to change to Auto Touch after an automation pass 
so you'll have to switch back to Auto Write each time you select the word or 
words. Be aware, however, that when you engage the transport, you'll be writing 
the current mute state so you need to make sure everything is correct before 
engaging the transport. With a surface, it's fairly easy to just keep the 
automation in Auto Touch mode and use the send mute button to unmute and mute 
on the fly for each section that requires the automation.

Hope that helps,

Slau
