Automation Trim Shortcut

by Matt on December 7th, 2009 in Automation, Video Tip, Workflow Enhancement

Have you ever written a pass of automation on a track and decided that the whole track is too loud? You can use the automation select tool, select all the automation events and then adjust them accordingly. However, us Logic Dudes like to work efficiently and that is too much mouse work!

The quickest way to trim the automation on the entire track is to cmd-click+drag the yellow bar on the track header in the arrange window. This action can be performed no matter which tool is selected. Check out the video below to see this hint in action.
