Automate a device's on/off switch.

Thank you.
But I got no clue how to do this. It is only possible in the arrangement view?

This should help.
Thank you.
But I need switch off in the session view to do a live performance. Or I am wrong?

It is possible to automate in a clip in session view, and have one clip with the effect on and another with it off. Automate the device on/off at the start of the clip and select between the two clips as needed.

Thank you very much.
I’ve tested it yesterday and it works perfectly.
But is it also possible to do it on the master channel? If you have plugins on the master channel.

No, because you can't add clips to the master channel (AFAIK). If you add an empty audio track to function as a bus and add a silent audio clip of a certain length to it, you can send the outputs of other tracks to the track with the empty audio clip and change envelopes on that clip. It's not an ideal solution as you need to keep the track's monitor on so it always has to be taking input from somewhere (an unused input or a second empty audio track).
There might be a better way of doing it I don't know about, I came to Ableton from Logic only a couple of years ago.
