Pro Tools Automation Pack #2 - Create Tracks

2nd volume of a collection of commands I accumulated over the years in order to automate several things in Pro Tools. Detailed descriptions (where needed) can be found in the command descriptions.



Create Tracks

A set of commands that create different kinds of tracks. Each command comes in tick and sample based variations.
Included are:
  • Create Track - Audio - Mono
  • Create Track - Audio - Stereo
  • Create Track - Aux - Mono
  • Create Track - Aux - Stereo
  • Create Track - Instrument - Mono
  • Create Track - Instrument - Stereo
  • Create Track - Master - Mono
  • Create Track - Master - Stereo
  • Create Track - MIDI
  • Create Track - VCA
  • Create Track - Video
The next command saves a Track. It was originally developed long before the official Track Preset feature existed in Pro Tools and is especially useful for Pro Tools versions prior to 2018. It creates a Track Preset from a selection of one or more tracks and saves it in the directory ~/Documents/Pro Tools/Track Presets. If the folder "Track Presets" doesn't exist, which may be the case if you never saved a Track Preset before, it gets created automatically.
