Ableton/Live/UG/03 Live Concepts/18 Automation Envelopes
- Automation is a control's change over time, stored as a breakpoint envelope you can draw, edit or record. Almost every mixer and device control can be automated, tempo included.
- With Automation Arm and Arrangement Record on, control changes are recorded into the Arrangement. With Automation Arm on while Session recording, they go into the clip.
- Moving an automated control while not recording overrides its automation until you press Re-Enable Automation or launch a Session clip that carries automation.
