Preparing animations

First, select the object in the arranger to animate.

In the Media Pool, open the "Effects" tab, and then click on the effect you would like to animate.
Most of the effects listed here can be animated, with the exception of the "Speed" effect.

If necessary, set up the effect however you would like it for the start of the animation.

A timeline is located at the bottom of the Media Pool where keyframes can be set, selected,
moved, and deleted.
There are two lines in the timeline
to help you orientate yourself
while you retroactively edit
movement. These lines will help
you recognize the start or end of
the transition.
Note
: The figure corresponds to the display in "Timeline" mode.
Set keyframes
Click the timeline to set the playback marker at the locations where a keyframe should be added.
Note
: You can also use the timeline in the arranger for exact positioning.

The button places keyframes for all parameters required in the
animation.

Additional keyframes can be added simply by placing the playback marker at the next keyframe
location and changing the effect accordingly.

The positioned keyframes can also be retroactively moved via drag & drop.
Copy keyframes
Select the keyframes to be copied by clicking them and then
press the "Copy" button.
