Unless you happen to be running ProTools v5 or lower, Extension 78 won’t do you any good. However, the Element 78 line (MPE-200 and EQ-200) are fully MIDI capable, so storing presets and automation is easy just by instantiating a MIDI track for each one. Loading a preset sends that info out as a SysEx message that can stored on the track so playback will load that info, and any changes you make with the product are sent out as Continuous Controller (CC) messages, so all that data can be saved and played back as recall or automation.
