9. Click the Show Keyframes button at the head of the audio track you changed, and select Show Track Keyframes.

This step will show the keyframes you recorded with the Audio Track Mixer along the yellow change line. You can edit these keyframes like
any others in the Timeline.

Preserve a track property while recording an audio mix

You can preserve the settings of a property while recording an audio mix, preventing a selected property from being edited. It protects that
property across all tracks in a sequence.

In the Effects And Sends panel for a track, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) an effect or send and choose Safe During Write
from the menu.

Use the Audio Track Mixer to automate track properties only, not clip properties. You can edit clip keyframes by selecting the clip and

using the Effect Controls panel or Timeline panel.

Audio Track Mixer automation modes

Automation modes are set in the menu at the top of each track. For example, drag a track’s volume fader or pan control during playback. When
you replay the audio with the track’s automation menu set to Read, Touch, or Latch, Premiere Pro plays back the track with the adjustments you
made. As you make adjustments in channels of the Audio Track Mixer, Premiere Pro applies the changes to their respective tracks by creating
track keyframes in a Timeline panel. Conversely, audio track keyframes you add or edit in a Timeline panel set values (such as fader positions) in
the Audio Track Mixer.

For each audio track, the selection in the automation options menu determines the track’s automation state during the mixing process:

Ignores the track’s stored settings during playback. Off allows real-time use of Audio Track Mixer controls without interference from existing

keyframes. However, changes to the audio track aren’t recorded in Off mode.

Reads the track’s keyframes and uses them to control the track during playback. If a track has no keyframes, adjusting a track option (such

as volume) affects the entire track uniformly. If you adjust an option for a track that’s set to Read automation, the option returns to its former value
(before the current automated changes were recorded) when you stop adjusting it. The rate of return is determined by the Automatch Time
preference.

Records adjustments you make to any automatable track settings that aren’t set to Safe During Write, and creates corresponding track

keyframes in a Timeline panel. Write mode writes automation as soon as playback starts without waiting for a setting to change. You can modify
this behavior by choosing the Switch To Touch After Write command from the Audio Track Mixer menu. After playback stops or a playback loop
cycle is completed, the Switch To Touch After Write command switches all Write mode tracks to Touch mode.

Identical to Write, except that automation doesn’t start until you begin adjusting a property. The initial property settings are from the

previous adjustment.

Identical to Write, except that automation doesn’t start until you begin adjusting a property. When you stop adjusting a property, its option

settings return to their previous state before the current automated changes were recorded. The rate of return is determined by the Automatch
Time audio preference.
