Automap 4 map have a problem if you have keycommands the use the same keys. example. shift t, control t, shit control t in cubase, anything like this will not work correctly, it will try to do all of them at the same time, i have the hard time with cubase keycommands in automap 4 and it was doing the same in automap 3. Now in Fl studio, Automap keycommand all work, u push a button and it works, in Cubase, u push a button it will do nothing or try to do all command that have the same Characters.

i have it 2 and it does not map correctly, it will map buttons 2 sliders, sliders 2 pots, pots 2 sliders or buttons, it will map things all over the place, you have to go in and re map everything to make since of it. Then there is a problem when control a plugin, if you have a lot of the same plugin in your session, you dont know which plugin you are controlling on what track. if i have eq on all tracks, automap is controlling a eq, but which one? What track? follow on screen plugin work, but?

@rudeboys28712 a good method to keep track of individual plug-ins is to rename them in the Automap Server window by editing the 'Name' field. Once this is done the new name will be displayed when viewing the relevant browser group (i.e. 'fx' or 'inst'). Please let us know if you have any questions.
