[musictlk] Logic Express Or Protools - Accessibility Question

[Cameron]

Hi.  Yes, you can certainly do a ton with the keyboard.  However, recording
various automatable events can be a lot quicker with a control surface.
Also, plug ins are accessible in pro tools via automatable parameters, which
you can modify using virtual pots on a control surface.

I hope that clears it up a bit.

Cameron.

So I need a contrl surface, even for Protools?
I thought the trick with Protools was that I could do everything from the
computer keyboard.
