Default Can I lock controls of a VST?

Hey, All!

Let's say I put the volume control on a track and set the level I want it to be at. Is there a way to lock controls so that they don't get accidentally messed up?

OOpps!

Just be clear... I'm not talking about the fader, I'm talking about the volume level on the JS: Volume plugin (or any other plugin!)

Lock the track.
If at any stage you want to adjust the fader - unlock it, adjust fader then lock again.
(this is how I do it - its fast and pretty much error proof)

Would that stop him from adjusting knobs on the actual plugin though?

Yes, but if it is only the one plugin to lock, then you can bus the track to a another track where the plug-ins that don't need to be locked can reside.
