automation editing sucks

Post by simon5413 » Fri Apr 08, 2016 7:13 pm

The automation editing in Live 9 is really the worst. Every time I want to move a point it tries to make me move the line instead... so fucking annoying. Go back to before.

It is indeed, however it can be learned to avoid this conundrum. I feel it helps zooming in vertically and horizontally as this is a question of resolution and precision. I use a magic track pad which is way better than a mouse I think. I wish you could also thin out or convert recorded automation to more simpler forms. I think recorded automation is something to try anyway. I often overdub this.
Make some music!
