System information
5. Click the label on the multipurpose slider and choose a bus from the menu.
6. Drag the fader to control the level of the track sent to the selected bus. Dragging the fader to the
left cuts the volume; dragging to the right boosts the volume.
The fader behaves differently depending on the track's automation recording mode. For more
information, see "Recording Track Envelope and Keyframe Automation" on page 270.
n When the track automation mode is set to Off, the fader adjusts the send level of the entire
track. In this mode, the automation control acts as a second trim control.
n When the track has a bus envelope and the track automation mode is set to Read, the fader
will follow the envelope during playback but cannot be adjusted.
n When the track has a bus envelope and the track automation mode is set to Touch or Latch,
the fader edits the envelope setting at the cursor position. If the track does not have an
envelope, one will be created when you adjust the fader.
If multiple tracks are selected, all selected tracks are adjusted.
Adding or removing track effect automation

information, see "Automating Audio Effect Parameters" on page 263.

envelopes in the timeline.

next to the Track FX button and choose an envelope from the drop-down list to select which envelope
you want to display.
