Item Description
Smooth and thin
automation data after
recording
When recording automation, Vegas Pro creates as many envelope
points or keyframes as possible to represent your control movements.
Select this check box if you want to reduce the number of envelope
points/keyframes after recording is finished. For more information,
see "Recording Track Envelope and Keyframe Automation" on page
270.
Set controls to default
values when
automation is turned
off
Select this check box if you want controls to return to their default
values when set the track's automation recording mode to
Automation Off. Automated effect parameters do not have default
settings and will retain their last-set values when you turn automation
off.
When the check box is cleared, controls will retain their last-set values
when you turn automation off. For more information, see "Recording
Track Envelope and Keyframe Automation" on page 270.

New audio envelopes Choose a setting from the drop-down list to set the default fade type
that will be used when you add volume and panning envelopes. For
more information, see "Audio Track Automation" on page 255.
This setting is used only when you create new envelopes. When you
add a point to an existing envelope, the new point always uses the
same fade type as the preceding envelope point.
