+1! Just watched a youtube video where a guy using protools was normalizing phrases of a vocal, but instead of just brining up sections by a set gain, he was able to ramp them using the gain functionality, which means this is PRE effects and thus goes into your vocal compressor with these changes, which is important. Of course we can do something similar by splitting up a track and using clip gain, but there is no way to my knowledge to actually RAMP clip gain, just like you would with volume automation. And again, this is important as its BEFORE your plugin inserts, so its before any compression or dynamics processing. Really awesome feature of protools that I wish was in Cubase.
