Volume Automation

Hello friends,

I’m looking for a specific track to have a smooth increase in volume over 64 steps within my selected pattern.

I’m wondering what is the best way to achieve this, and how you guys quickly lay down your automation within your patterns.

The most obvious way so far would be to lay my individual trigs, and then p-lock each trig then slightly increase the volume over each step throughout the pattern, but I’m wondering if there’ s a quicker way to achieve this through trigless locks etc.

Cheers :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Parameter slide the volume from step one to step sixty four.

Top man, ill give that a try tonight :slight_smile:

HI ! A paramatrer-slide go’s rom 1 trig to the next I’m afraid, but if the trigs touch eatchother you would get a smooth amp-ramp between those trigs. You would still have to edit the volume per trig with the locks , Or use the Live-record mode to changing the volu

Yes, sorry, it’s not as simple as I first stated, unless we were talking one or two trigs.
But parameter sliding the volume from one trig to the next will create a smooth volume increase over sixty four steps as long as you estimate the volume increase between each step correctly.
Just start with a rough guess then tweak the volume steps, as the pattern loops, until you have an even sounding volume fade.

Can’t one use a LFO for this ? Default FREE, locked on TRIG on the first step ?

Hello,

What i was looking to achieve was a 64 step pattern with hats on every second step (1,3,5,7,9…) and for the volume to increase from 0-127 gradually over the pattern.

I tried gigerbones method, but it appears the trigs don’t staddle.

Thanks for the LFO method you mention Lying Dalai, how would one go about achieving this for my above example.

Cheers

LFO parameters :
SPD : +16
MUL : x1
SPH : 32
MOD : FRE
WAV : tri
DST : VOL
DEP : -128 (adjust here for how much volume you want in the end)

Then just lock LFO MOD to TRG on the first step to ensure you always restart the LFO here.

Thanks man, I’ll give it a try

The method in my second post works perfectly.
