I'm having a bit of trouble with automation. (6.1.1, OS9.2.2) That is to say "it's not doing what I tell it to do." I set the volume automation on a track, draw in a curve. I'll make it a long straight line, ramping volume from say, 56 to 112 (num scale, not db). I'll play back and watch the volume ramp slowly up to...102, and then stop. I do the same with a fadeout, watch it ramp slowly down to...6, depsite the fact that the point says "0". It does this if I bounce or freeze, too. It doesn't matter if it's RT or offline, it seems to just ignore the tails of my curves. Slow ramp, fast ramp...doesn't seem to make a difference. I haven't determined if it does this for non-volume parameters yet - volume is the easiest to hear when it screws up. This is very annoying. If I can't smoothly fade out a track, then having mix-automation is pretty useless. Any ideas? Some sort of sync setting I need? Buffers? Am I just screwed? _______________________________________________________ Eric Oehler / wonko@... / www.nulldevice.com Synthetic music for synthetic people.

> it seems to just ignore the tails of my curves. I've noticed this too. This quirk seems to affect the fade to the last automation node only. The only method that i found to cure this is to put another automation node at the same value after the last valid point. Christian
