Adding and adjusting control points
To create volume or pan changes over time, you add control points to a track’s volume and pan curves at different points in the timeline, then adjust the control points so the volume or pan changes. You can adjust control points by moving them up or down to a new value, or by moving them to new points in the timeline.
To add and adjust control points:
- If the curve you want to edit is not visible, click the triangle next to the Lock button in the track’s header to show the row containing the curves. Then choose the curve you want to edit from the pop-up menu on the left.
- Click the volume or pan curve at the place you want to add a control point. Once you add a control point, the curve no longer moves when you drag the slider (for volume curves) or dial (for pan curves).
- Drag the control point up or down to change its value. Drag it left or right to move it to a new point in the timeline.
You can use the beat ruler to make sure the control point is aligned with a beat or measure.
You can select all the control points on a curve by clicking the curve’s header.
