To automate a realtime effect parameter:
1 In the Effects tab, select the Auto (Automation-enable) checkbox next to the
parameter’s control.
2 In the Timeline or in the File Editor project view, show the envelopes for the track, bus,
submix, or audio file project.
In the Timeline, you show the envelopes for the track, bus, or submix with the effect. In
the File Editor, you show the envelopes for the audio file project.
3 Add and adjust envelope points in the effect’s envelope.
For information on adding and adjusting envelope points, see Chapter 12, “ Working
with Automation ,” on page 355.
When you automate an effect parameter with units of time (seconds or milliseconds) or
beats per minute (BPM) for values, the parameter is linked to the project tempo. If the
tempo changes, the value of the parameter changes to keep the same relationship to
the new tempo.
