re. what does Automonitor do then ?
as the name implies, track auto-monitor just turns on monitoring (aka. pass-through) for the current selected/highlighted track;
track auto-monitor is of most convenience for MIDI tracks in particular, as it also filters incoming MIDI events through the tracks MIDI channel automatically which is of great use when recording your performance from a MIDI piano-keyboard or controller and listen for MIDI instrument (plugins) in immediate real-time.
