Logic Pro x 11.2 automation bypass don't work

I always stay one version behind because of this on my main station. I also back-up an extra copy of the Logic Pro app just in case.

I retitle the app (for ex: Logic Pro 10.5.1) so the update does not replace the copy.

Hope that helps gentleman,

Hi,

This def looks weird.

• Have you tried using "Latch" and automating the bypass function?
• Conversely, enable "automation parameter in read mode" and just click on the bypass buttons and they should automatically show up in the Automation Parameter menu?
• Lastly, the Q4 should have a Mix blend knob that you can use as a quasi bypass if automated.

You should report this:

Hi all. I have got exactly the same problem after the latest update. It’s causing a few problems at the moment as I am mixing 10 tracks for my new album down. Tried every hint I can find but nothing is helping.

Thx in advance of your time 👍🏻

The fastest way to get it fixed is to report it. The Apple Team does read these.

Make sure to notify Apple right away... this could be extremely valuable. It's the most effective method to catch the attention of the Logic Pro team.

Submit Feedback to Apple:

Report your issues to Apple. Fixes may not be implemented until they are reported. These forums are user-to-user platforms, and Apple’s involvement is limited to their own schedule. While Apple may not respond directly, the more feedback received, the better understanding they gain of existing issues and potential updates for future versions. Without reporting your concerns, Apple will not be aware of them.

On a side note, getting rid of your Prefence List has helped me solve this issue in the past as QuantumVerse111 pointed out.

I have the same problem and that feature is very important to me.

From your experience: how long will it take Apple to fix the issue?

Wow this is very frustrating. Hopefully they fix this soon.

I have the same problem. I tried the Touch and Latch method as a workaround. They seemed to work, but then I had problems with trying to manually add extra data points to the automation once it was created. The plugin did not seem to follow the manually added points or there was a delay of some sort, as I'd see the plugin Bypass button go off despite the automation lane showing non-bypass at the same point. Seems a bit hit or miss, but will experiment more. I was using Melodyne Essential on Logic Pro 11.2 on a Mac Mini M4.

I've been having this same problem. Is it just me or is it Apple that needs to fix this after 3 weeks of having been informed of it? To not be able to Automate as described using this basic and necessary on/off feature is ridiculous. The Sends are there. Why not the "Main" effects as pointed out and shown at the start of this thread?

As soon as I posted about this Automation problem a couple of days ago I got an Apple email notification saying that I had an "upvote" and thanking me. The message also described that this thread had been viewed 976 times, so my first question is why is that 976 times info not shown in the thread so that people can see the level of interest? There seems to me to be a lot of shared interest/concern about this problem, so my second question is why doesn't Apple respond and/or fix this problem? I'm not able to find a workaround. Referring to the response here from QuantumVerse111, "...it could be due to a software glitch..." Everything I've seen, including a lengthy thread about this at the Facebook Logic Pro users group that began on May 30, describes the same thing - that it's a problem with the update to 11.2. A software glitch that needs to be fixed, right?

Your assumptions are just wrong. The number of views is displayed on the main page of this forum.

so my second question is why doesn't Apple respond and/or fix this problem? I'm not able to find a workaround. Referring to the response here from QuantumVerse111, "...it could be due to a software glitch..."

Have you (ever) reported the bug to Apple via Feedback - Logic Pro - Apple ?

Same issue here.

Even worst, Logic crashes as soon as I try to automate a bypass, no solution so far, super annoyed.

If automation bypass isn’t working in Logic Pro X 11.2, it could be due to a software glitch, incorrect automation mode, or plugin-specific behavior. Automation bypass is meant to temporarily disable automation for selected tracks, but in some versions, especially after updates, it may not function as expected. This could be caused by corrupted preference files, third-party plugin conflicts, or the automation not being properly written or read by Logic. Also, automation may remain active if the track is set to “Read” instead of “Off.” Resetting Logic’s preferences or updating plugins and Logic itself can help resolve the issue.
