[RWP] Automation

[Derek Lane]

You can... kind of.
I say that because you can either delete the content of your project where 
the automation exists, or go before the offending automation movements and 
perform an action called something like write current values from cursor to 
end of project.
The downside to doing that is that you have a situation where you can't make 
any changes in the project which stick after they are made because 
automation is only overwritten when its being written/latched etc.

In other words, if after performing this action to correct an error, you 
have a situation where, given a chance, volumes/panning etc. will just boink 
back to where your values were set where the values were initially written.
The way to sort that is to place your cursor at the point just before things 
jump, then do another pass writing values from  the cursor to the end.
This as of reaaccess version latest.whatever, and reaper version 3.78
