Automation Preview mode lets you audition changes to a mix and compare them to existing automation values without committing them to the automation playlist.
When you put Pro Tools in Automation Preview mode, you can preview values for automation-enabled controls on any track that is in a writable automation mode.
While in Automation Preview mode, when you touch or move a control, it isolates the control, disengaging it from its automation playlist. The control stops reading or writing automation, allowing you to freely audition changes.
When you have found a level or state that you want to use, you can then commit or punch the previewed value to the automation playlist for the isolated controls.

If you punch during playback, the automation mode is set to Latch and writing begins at the preview value.

If you punch while the transport is stopped, the automation mode is set to Latch and the control is primed at the preview value.
