One For The Wish List: Session View Clip Automation Layer

Post by otalgia99 » Fri Feb 28, 2025 3:40 pm

Hello again

Just forwarding my wish that I could see an existing layer of Session View Clip Automation in order to match additional automation to it.

Unlike Arrangement View, I don't think that more than one additional layer of view would be needed (or desirable really) but being able to see even just one layer of existing clip automation would be... oh so nice.

Just wanted to add that I know we can copy & paste envelopes across automation lanes, but that's not always the desired approach in every case.

I'm thinking of situations where a comparison to, rather than duplication of, an existing automation envelope is the more useful functionality.
