 Owner’s Manual

Console automation Menu

Once you have enabled the Matrix console for automation, you can start automating your mix. After the 

ENABLE

 button is 

illuminated, a series of automation options will appear in the 

AUTO

 menu on the console - this section will detail what these 

options do.

SNAP 

Snap mode toggles the console between a 'touch' and 'latch' style automation state.

 

³

  When snap is 

ON

, the console will act in a ‘touch’ automation style - releasing the faders whilst writing    

 

 

automation will move them back to the original position stored in the plugin automation lane. Glide /  

 

 

 

release times are set from the DAW automation system.

 

³

  When snap is 

OFF

, the console will act in a ‘latch’ automation style without having to change the DAW    

 

 

automation style - even if the faders are released, they will continue to write automation (as far as the DAW  

 

 

is concerned, the Matrix faders are still being touched). 

Please Note: With snap mode 

OFF

, touching a fader with the DAW in Stop will also pre-arm the track, which will 

drop into write on entering Play.

Note for Ableton Live users: As Ableton Live only has a 'latching' style automation, the 

SNAP

 option in the console 

auto menu will not function. To achieve a 'touch' style automation mode, after recording an automation move take 
the console out of record mode using the Matrix' 'record' transport switch.

Note for Logic Pro users: Due to the functionality of switch parameter automation in Logic Pro, we advise 
automating Cut, Cue, and FX switches using the 

Latch plugin 

automation status in Logic Pro. When writing fader 

automation, setting the plugin automation status to 

Touch

 and using the 

SNAP

 option in the console 

AUTO

 menu 

to toggle touch and latching style automation will function as expected.
