Audio Gain Automation Real-Time Recording
Audio Gain Automation Real-Time Recording
Adjusting audio using the Audio Mixer or keyframing is a great way to
make sure that your levels and pans are within acceptable limits. However,
you may have noticed that both of these strategies are “mark-and-park”
approaches—that is, you play the audio to see how you’d like to adjust
it, make that adjustment, and then play it to determine whether you got
acceptable results. Often, using a more dynamic method is preferable. In
this vein, you may want to try recording audio adjustments on-the-fly.

It’s often best to perform this procedure after setting the overall levels in
the Audio Mixer tool and before adjusting keyframes.
To perform audio gain automation recording:
1. Prepare the Timeline by marking IN and OUT points around the area
you want to adjust. If you don’t set IN and OUT marks, you will adjust
the entire sequence.
2. Open the Audio Mixer, and switch the mode to Auto, if necessary.
3. (Optional) Type a value in the Preroll and Postroll boxes to play frames
before and after the automation gain adjustments. For example, type 2
to add two seconds of preroll and postroll.
4. In the Timeline window, click the Track Selection button for each audio
track you want to adjust.
5. (Optional) To gang tracks together so that they are all adjusted at once,
click the Gang buttons on the desired tracks.
6. Click the Record button
or press the B key to start recording
your actions.
7. As you listen to the sequence audio, adjust the Level sliders in the
Audio Mixer tool.
8. If you want to stop recording, click the Record button again. If you want
to abort the process while recording and restart, click the Trash icon.
