Adding Automation

Now, select a different parameter to automate. In this case, use the Panner on the

Synth track.

1. Make sure that the “Toggle Automation Mode” button is set to Edit mode.

2. From the automation pop-up menu on the Synth track, select “Panner - Left-Right”

so that you can see how the automation is written to the track.

3. Press [Space] to start playback, click in the panner value field, and drag up and

down to pan the signal left or right.

4. Stop playback when you are done.

Editing Automation Data

By creating a selection range on an automation track, the automation editor becomes

available. This editor offers additional controls for editing selection ranges. These

controls are identical with the so-called smart spots in the controller lane editor. For a

detailed description, see

“Working with Selection Ranges on the Controller Lane” on

page 35.

Removing and Disabling Automation

To remove and disable automation, you have the following possibilities:

• To remove the track automation for the current parameter, select the first option

from the lower part of the automation pop-up menu (for example, “Remove Volume

Automation”).

Note that this also deletes any automation events for this parameter.

• To remove all automation data from the selected track, select “Remove all

Automation of Track” from the automation pop-up menu.

• To remove all effect automation data from the selected track, select “Remove

Effect Automation” from the automation pop-up menu.

• To remove all EQ automation data from the selected track, select “Remove EQ

Automation” from the automation pop-up menu.

• To enable/disable the master automation, click the “Disable Automation” button on

the master track or in the Master channel of the mixer.

The Read and Write functions as well as all automation on the Master track are

disabled. The initial automation value is used as a fixed value for the whole project.

You can still modify this value using the master automation controls in the track list.

If you deactivate the button, the master automation is enabled again.

Sequel automatically smoothes out the automation.
