Build in Adobe FX automation

Hi,

I tried to add FX automation to the track in multitrack session. I added the FX and then below, I chose the RACK MIX envelope and added some keyframe points. During playing the mix the envelope didn't work. I can only use a straight bar (with no Keyframes at it) to set the regular proportion of RACK FX MIX. But I can't set the evenlope that changes the RACK MIX propotion in time.

What is wrong? Or what did I do wrong?

Cheers.

It may be worth saying that in the second image, your settings are arranged to make a fast transition from no effect at all to the effect on full.  With some effects, sometimes results are better if you use Volume/Rack Input or Volume/Rack Output rather than rack mix.  These two seem (to me at least) to give me the effect I want if my goal is to go from no effect all all to full effect over a period of time (or vice versa).


Although I did try it as shown over a much longer period of time and it did seem to produce the required effect. But just not at that extremely short timespan.

Here is an example.

All I'm trying to do is remove the shaker form the kick sample with a FTT filter.

I add the sample on the track, I add the FFT filter with an exact correction. Then I choose the envelope Rack Mix.

At the first screen: filter works, but for whole track (it is obvious).

And the second screen: filter doesn't work att all, although it has an envelope set.

I hope the screens will help.

Cheers.

How long is the clip? Looking at your timescale in your images it only appears to be a fraction of a second. I don't think that track automation works down at that timescale.
