18.3.2 Modulating Pan
The Pan envelope affects the mixer pan stage in a relative way: The pan knob's position
determines the intensity of the modulation. With the pan knob set to the center position,
modulation by the clip envelope can reach from hard left to hard right; the modulation
amount is automatically reduced as you move the pan knob towards the left or right. When
the pan knob is turned all the way to the left, for instance, the pan clip envelope has no
effect at all.
18.3.3 Modulating Device Controls
All devices in a clip's track are listed in the upper clip envelope Device chooser. Modulating
the devices' controls works just as you would expect. When modulating device controls, it
is important to keep the interaction of clip envelopes and device settings in mind: Unlike
a device preset, the clip envelope cannot dene the values for the devices' controls, it can
only change them relative to their current setting.
18.4 MIDI Controller Clip Envelopes
Whether you are working with a new MIDI clip that was recorded directly into Live, or one
from your les, Live allows you to edit and create MIDI controller data for the clip in the
form of clip envelopes.
Choose MIDI Ctrl from a MIDI clip's Device chooser and use the Control chooser below
it to select a specic MIDI controller. You can create new clip envelopes for any of the
listed controllers by drawing steps or using breakpoints. You can also edit clip envelope
representations of controller data that is imported as part of your MIDI les or is created
