[RWP] Automation

[Jim Snowbarger]

Well, I think I remember that in Sonar too, how the automation seemed to be 
in  overdub mode, mixing in with what was there previously.  But, there was 
a way to put it in overwrite mode.  And, I wondered if some of those Reaper 
modes, touch, latch, and whatever, actually equated to overwrite mode.
Guess not, eh?
