Strange. When I try to automate that stuff by moving the matrix settings
nothing gets recorded. Latch, Touch, Write, doesn't matter. Who knows why?
ESB??? 

Anyway, I just moved the controllers to where I wanted them in the track
automation view. In the process I discovered, at least on my setup, that
there has to be something on the downbeat and then it has to change to the
desired parameter for the automation to work. If I delete the first node (is
that the correct terminology?) that's on the downbeat, nothing happens. If I
leave it there, all is well. That must have been why I had inconsistent
results before. I wanted to keep it clean by deleting the first node.
nodule? knode? haha

The tip about moving the track automation to an object is very much
appreciated. Now I can mute that and put it in my Autoload for future setup
changes. Pretty cool. Thanks HJV.
