Automation for internal effect-parameters

Hello, I do not often work with Audition but I saw that you can automate the Effect Mix parameter but I couldn't find an option to automate internal parameters of an effect. In my case, I wanted to automate the parameter "Decay Time" in the effect "Full Reverb". Is there a possibility to achieve that?

    You might have some difficulty with changing parameters in real time in Full Reverb, as it's rather processor-intensive. It will probably work fine with Studio reverb though. The method of accessing the rubber band is to use the twirl-down menus in the channel control panel:

    Start with the Read twirl-down, and then select Show Envelopes - it should be reasonably plain sailing from there (notwithstanding what I said about the suitability of the actual effect you've mentioned...)

    The cheat I often use if I want to "automate" something in Full Reverb is to make one version of the clip/track at the settings I want to start with and a second with settings I want to end with.  Then I just use volume envelopes to do a long slow fade between the two versions.

    Indeed, sometimes this can be quicker than creating and using Effect Envelopes even if it's something that would support that option.

    I don't think that you can. Because Full Reverb is a very processor intense effects plugin you can't actually adjust any of it's parameters in real time, they all have to be set before you start playback. You will see that if you playback audio with the Full Reverb settings panel open that all the settings get greyed out when playback starts. The only reverb effect that use real time automation for adjusting it's parameters is the much simpler Studio Reverb I'm afraid.
