Tap the
automation button
or press
Read
/
Write
(MPC X) to cycle through its three states:
When
off
, the audio track will ignore automation data. If you have already recorded or entered
automation, tapping this will switch between Read (
R
) and Write (
W
) only, but you can override
this and turn it off by pressing and holding
Shift
while pressing or tapping the button.
Important
: If you have already recorded automation and turn it off, the audio track will still use
the effect and its parameter values at the point where you turned it off.
When set to
Read
(
R
), the audio track will read automation data but will not record any additional
automation over it. (Think of this as a protective feature to prevent accidental changes to your
automation while recording.)
When set to
Write
(
W
), the audio track can record automation. (If you have any Q-Link knobs
assigned to automatable parameters, make sure not to touch any accidentally while you are
recording.)
Tip
: You can quickly set all programs and audio tracks to the same automation by tapping the
global automation button in the upper-right corner of the screen. See
General Features
>
Automation
to learn about this.
Adjust the
pan knob
or
level slider
to change the panning or level of the track.
Tap the
Record Arm
button or press
Rec Arm
(MPC X) to record-enable the track. When you
begin audio recording, the audio signal will be recorded to this track.
Tip
: You can select multiple tracks in the
Rec Arm
tab by pressing and holding
Shift
and tapping
each
pad
on the screen. You can also do this in the Track View by pressing and holding
Shift
while tapping the
Arm
button to each track.
