Description

Enhancement Summary

I have used automation tracks to build a song by realtime recording tracks mute/unmute. Unfortantly I cannot record changes afterwads. When I select 'turn all recordings on" it removes all previous data even I did not clicked on mute/unmute.

Implementation Details / Mockup

When re-reording an automation track, leave the current values and only make changes at the positions a change is detected.

Research direction

Start by reproducing realtime recording on an automation track, including mute/unmute changes and the “turn all recordings on” action. Trace the automation-track overdub entry point and verify that existing values remain unchanged while only detected changes are recorded at their positions.
