Available only on Pro Tools with HDX or HD Native hardware.Playback is always based on the Timeline selection Playback cursor remains in the centre of the Edit window and the timeline moves underneath.Edit window view updates to show a new “page” when the playback cursor reaches the edge of the screen.Edit window view updates to the position that the playback cursor got to when you press stop.
#D COMMAND PRO TOOLS 2020 UPDATE#
Edit window view does not update to show the playback cursor position.There are five (four in standard Pro Tools) modes to choose from which are accessed from the Options menu The Edit Window scrolling modes affect how the Edit window updates when playing back. This allows to you stop directly in that position to add a marker or make an edit.

Pressing play once again moves the playback cursor to the right as expected, however when you stop playback the “insertion” point will update to this new location. When you engage insertion follows playback you make Pro Tools operate more like a tape machine. The insertion point is the in point of your playback selection and is typically changed by using the selector tool and clicking in a track or selecting a clip with the grabber tool. This allows you to playback from the same insertion point again and again to check and review your edit, which I personally find to be incredibly useful.

Pressing Control N (Mac) or Start N (Windows) if not in keyboard commands focus.Pressing N in keyboard commands focus mode.Clicking on the insertion follows playback button just below the pencil tool.
