Creating an editing automation envelopes
You can create automation envelopes for tracks, buses, clips and plug-ins. Drawing an envelope
overwrites any preexisting envelope for the same parameter that occurs at the same time in the
same track or bus.
To edit automation envelopes, first select the automation parameter from a track’s Edit Filter control
(see “Selecting the data type to edit” on page 398), and use the global tools in the Control Bar’s
Tools module (see “Tools” on page 389) to edit the envelope.
Figure 282. Edit Filter control.
To control track automation, click a track’s Edit Filter control, point to Track Automation and choose
the desired track parameter on the submenu menu. To control clip automation, point to Clip
Automation and choose the desired clip parameter on the submenu.
