Accessing Automation Gain Recording
You must be in Option I/O mode to record gains in the Automation Gain tool.
To record automation gain:
1.  Press the Option I/O button.
The faders move into the correct position for recording automation gain.
2.  When recording automation gain, use the On button on each channel to switch from Timeline control of audio gain to user control of audio gain.
You can punch in and out of gain recording as many times as you want.
The Yamaha 01V faders are not touch sensitive in the same way as the JL Cooper MCS-3000X MIDI Automation controller. As soon as you touch a moving fader on the MCS-3000X, the unit passes control of the fader to you. On the Yamaha 01V, you must press the fader's On button to gain control of a moving fader.
  If a fader is not moving, you can move the fader to take control without pressing the On button.
  If you attempt to catch a moving fader, the mixer might fight you for control. Press the On button to take control of the fader.
