Each track’s AMP volume can be controlled via MIDI CC7. Wouldn’t this work for your needs?
Track level can be controlled via CC 95, this was introduced in OS 1.06.

cool - i should have switched it over to send cc instead of nrpn, the nrpn command was just added so i figured no cc, didn’t spot it in manual fwiw ! 
haha! that image is trying to run away when scrolled 
ahahahah …faster than thoughts !
You’re right,sorry guys!
it’s weird, i use always the same method and zoom to snapshot something on my macbook, but sometimes (this Forum) happens this, the image get zooOOOooomed and you can’t look it all…bho?
so, both were there by 1.06, but neither gets a mention in the 1.1 manual - what else does it do that’s hard to find ? 
Thanks guys! I managed to get it going like I wanted with CC95.
To those of you using Ableton, here is a tip: it seems that if you draw a straight line fade in, the messages that Ableton sends to the A4 are kind of “jittery” i.e. the track level would kind of increase in large increments. However, when you draw the line manually with a lot of breakpoints, the response is quite smooth. I suppose it will be some bug within ableton sending discrete datapoints for each automation breakpoint and not managing very well the intermediate values.
Yes, as avantronica, mentions it would be good to know what else there is missing from the latest manual.
Is there some extra step needed to get this to work? I am drawing / sending MIDI cc95 from Cubase to the Keys and it’s not affecting Track Level. All other relevant CCs are working (CC1, CC2) and doing what they’re supposed to.
Make sure it’s the right midi channel, I guess?
I haven’t used this in ages
Now there is overbridge, no?
I’m using Overbridge.
Using Track 1, MIDI ch 1 and all other CCs are working as they should.
Appendix D-5 of the A4 manual says Volume CC7 can control Amp, which would work.
But where can I assign CC7 to the Amp value correctly?
I’m trying to click on the Amp fader in Overbridge and go to Performance > J > Desitnation5, Volume, T1. But CC7 still doesn’t seem to do anything.
In relation to this posting.
When I write Midi cc7 to control track level, the a4 doesn’t respond. Note data only.
Cubase 8.5 with A4 and latest Firmware.
Frustratingly, Track Level CC and Track Mute CC commands are still only listed in the OS release notes as supplementary info
So,
Track Level CC 95 or NRPN 1:100
Track Mute CC 94 or NRPN 1:101
You also need to enable CC receipt (or note for that matter) and chose which MIDI bus it is received on

Ok I’ve tried using cc95 but no change still.
Cc/nrpn receive is on
Receive notes is on
Notes are playing but track parameters are not responding to CC datA
Any other ideas?
do you actually even know that CC data is arriving at the A4 ?
put OB to one side and make sure you have the A4 set correct using normal midi methods
do you mean like hooking up with a MIDI to USB adapter and using the regular outs?
No, you won’t need one of those, I’m just advocating getting automation working in a simple environment, no OB … keep it simple … use a midi monitor (if you have one) … these can allow you to ‘spy’ on the data being sent to a specific port as well as monitoring what is coming in
