Automation not recording...

I just upgraded to 22.5.0 build 45 [2016.05]... I assume this is operator error somehow, but when I try to automate volume, the automation envelope appears, but no volume changes are recorded as I move the slider. I imagine something got unchecked, or unassigned, but I'm not sure where to look. I can add nodes and make changes that way, but that's not ideal.

    And in the Mix Module? That is all I could think of now

    Try this:
    Click on the "W" (Write) button in track pane.
    Start playback (record is not necessary).
    Move the slider / volume fader.

    Mix Module is new to me, but it seems to be set up as expected

    I was able to do the mix I needed, but I had to go in and literally create every individual node... time consuming... I hope someone has an answer at some point.

    If you right click on the fader, do you see "Automation Write enable" is checked? There is also visual indication around control elements which are "automation write ready" (since that can be switched individually).
     
    Which Automation mode are you using? I mean Inspector/Track/Automation/Write Mode.

    You know what, scratch this query... I had been in a hurry and wasn't thinking... I checked it on other tracks and it was fine... this is a midi track. I guess I have to bounce it to audio first.
