Automation Isn't Recording - Why??

Post by Ningishzida » Thu Sep 13, 2018 5:42 pm

When I record a jam with my MIDI controller the automation isn't recording!

Once I bounce the track there's no automation... Even though it shows the automation data in the Arrangement View.

Why is this? And how do I bounce my track with automation, please?

Thank you

Ning.

Do you have Automation Arm activated?

Yes... I actually followed those instructions for 'Recording Automation in Session View' while I recorded... And like I said, in the Arrangement View I can see the automation, but it's not bouncing to mp3 for some reason?

The article "justanametouse" linked has instructions for both Session View and Arrangement View.

If you want to record in Arrangement View then you should read the instructions for Arrangement View too.
