The automation control from the DAW comes from 16 channels that do not carry any audio at the end of your session- purely control the fader values of the audio fader on the console. Good news is that at that point you are not changing any output levels in the DAW, merely control data so any inserted compression remains in balance on the audio fader. Was definately a big thing for me- don't want to be having to change my compresser every time I automate a console ride!

Does mean having an extra 16 tracks up in the daw, but can always disable voices in le systems or hide them in the DAW when you don't need to see the automation data
