Chris: First of all, you can't arm the amp sim because it is a very old effect that did not conform to todays standards for automation. You have to assign the parameters you want to control from within the track inspector.

I have a bus with three effects patched into it. First, I have the Sonitus gate, then the fx-reverb, then the amp sim. I am trying to arm parameters with a view to remote controlling them from my radium keyboard's programmable controls. 1. I know how to get to the arm parameters dialogue either in the bus inspector or from the context menu in the fx bin itself. I understand checking the parameters I want to arm. 2. For the amp sim effect, the menu item for arming parameters is unavailable. Does this mean I can't arm/remote control this effect at all? 3. Ok, so I've armed the parameters. Where do I control them from during an automation record session? In the case of the Sonitus gate, the dialogue box is inaccessible. In the case of the reverb effect, all its controls are edit boxes, not sliders, and thus not subject to manipulation in real time? 4. The whole point of the exercise is to attach them to the sliders and knobs on my radium, and nowhere do I see the remote control option that comes up in the context menus of things like the volume control on the bus/track. Am I missing something?
