Trim Automation is Great. But...

[Craig Anderton]

I wish track automation was done the same way as for tempo automation, where you can specify minimum and maximum values for the interface. Many of my automation moves are 1 dB or less, and better resolution would be soooo welcome.

Absolutely needed. I often write automation to hardware and need to send 1, then 2, then 1, then 3. in short order. It gets so frustrating and I second this call.

Absolutely, Craig. When changes are subtle, as are mine as well, it would be so much more visible and vertically space saving, to have min-max settings. Really needed.

Also needed when mapping control parameter automation from synths, instruments, etc. In the edit window.

While we're at it, can "OFF" somehow be added to the scale, to avoid slicing? The current minimum of -24dB is low but for some signals not low enough to silence the track sufficiently in the mix.

While I find the need to slice less troublesome than the problem Craig points to, yes, absolutely, this would be wonderful too. Like a range "OFF" overlay on the automation curve?
