Volume, Pan and the
Track Activator Switch
Have Been Automated.
17.2 Deleting Automation
To delete automation data, simply select an automated control by clicking on it, and choose
the Edit menu's Delete Automation command. The automation LED disappears, and the
control's value stays constant across the entire song. Note that this will not work with controls
that are switches, like the Track Activator switch, because they cannot be selected by clicking.
You can only delete automation for switches by editing their breakpoint envelopes.
17.3 Overriding Automation
In practice, you will often want to try out new control moves without overwriting existing
automation data. Well, nothing is forever in the world of innite Undo, but it's easy to
disable a control's automation temporarily to avoid overwriting existing data: If you change
an automated control's value while not in Record mode, the automation LED goes off to
indicate the control's automation is inactive. Any automation is therefore overridden by the
current manual setting.
The Back to
Arrangement Button.
When one or more of the automated controls in your Live Set are not active, the Control
Bar's Back to Arrangement button lights up. This button serves two purposes:
