Mouse modes
MAGIX Music Maker MX Production Suite offers special mouse modes for
arranging and editing objects.
A small arrow next to the mouse pointer symbol allows different modes
to be set.
Automation
This mouse mode is used for drawing the volume and effect curves
(view page 257).
When active,
a new curve can be drawn on an object or track using the left
mouse button.
Activate the corresponding effects curve in the "Effects" menu in the
track box to enable track automation.
For the object, use the "Automation of this object" command form the "Effects
> Automation" menu (Key: Ctrl + H) and select the corresponding curve in the
dialog. Clicking on an object without an activated effects curve activates the
volume object curve for this object.
Note: In this mode, the object curves will always be edited, even if a track
curve is also displayed. If you would like to edit the track curve at this position,
then you will need to temporarily move the object somewhere else.
Individual automation points on a curve may also be created in the normal
"Move" mouse mode (see above) by double clicking the corresponding curve.
For more information about automation curves, please read the chapter
Automation curves (view page 257)!
Shortkey: Ctrl + 4, number key 4
