Automation Follows Clips
I would like to write automation (effect sends, EQ moves, etc.) on audio tracks (and bus tracks, but that's too much to ask, I assume) and have that automation be tied to the clip when I move it around the timeline. In podcasting we are constantly editing the timeline right until the mix is exported. In video, the timeline is locked so it's not an issue.
I know that ripple delete kind of achieves this, but when you just want to move one clip and have the supporting sfx or music stay in place, that isn't an option. As it is, automation is completely unusable for podcast production, and that's unfortunate. If we want to throw to a reverb for a clip we actually have to copy a new version of the clip to a new track with reverb, so that it will move in sync when we select to the end of timeline and move clips around.
