  • Bus Automation for ProChannel EQ (UPDATED WITH VIDEO)

I cannot get the automation of enabling the Pro Channel EQ or bands within the EQ to work. If I click to manually set the Now Time, the current state of automation will reflect properly. If I let the project play, the Pro Channel EQ and/or bands within that EQ will not reflect the current state of automation.
 
Is anyone else able to duplicate this? I experienced this with 2017.01 and both of the early release 2017.2's. I did not verify any other versions other than these.
 
If anyone would like a visual demonstration of this issue, I can produce a video on it later tonight (if requested).

Here is a short video demonstrating the problem. Can anyone reproduce this? Can anyone help with any suggestions? Thank you, -Charles
 
EDIT: In the video I mention that I am automating two bands within the ProChannel. I meant to say that I am enabling the EQ Module itself on this one. However, the results are identical when automating bands within the ProChannel EQ.

Confirmed. Bus automation only responds when the bus is selected

Wow scook, I just looked at that. I am not entirely sure that these are the same thing, but they could be. If so, I think this is quite an issue that should be looked into. In the meantime when I get into the studio tonight, I will try and rout those tracks into an Aux track and test it there as a work around. If that works I can get this project done. If not, well... I am not sure. I will cross that bridge when I get there.
 
Thank you for looking into this and confirming Bristol_Jonesey

Probably not. FWIW, I just tested automating QCEQ band on/off and gain on a couple of bands in a bus in 2017.01 and third early release of 2017.02. It works for me regardless of focus or selection.

I tested this out with an Aux track and that works properly. So for now, if I need to automate the QuadCurve EQ in the ProChannel, I will need to do that on an Aux track rather than a Buss.
 
If anyone else comes across this, the workaround is use an Aux Track.
