If you’re like me, you probably automate most of the things in your life. Your car knows when to turn the lights on and off. Your computer knows when to go to sleep. Even your phone can probably do some basic things automatically.
But what about your audio? If you’re an audio editor, or even just a casual user, you probably have to do a lot of things manually that could be automated. That’s where the Automation Clip feature in Audacity comes in.
The Automation Clip feature allows you to record and playback automation data in real-time. You can use it to automate volume changes, effects, panning, and more.
To use the Automation Clip feature, first, create a new track. Then, in the track control panel, click the “Create Clip” button.
A new window will open up. In this window, you can choose what kind of automation clip you want to create. For this example, we’ll choose “Volume.”
Next, select the region of the track that you want to automate. Then, click the “Record” button.
Audacity will now record any volume changes that you make in the selected region. To playback the automation clip, simply click the “Play” button.
You can also edit the automation clip by clicking the “Edit” button. This will open up a new window where you can edit the automation data.
So, there you have it! The Automation Clip feature in Audacity is a great way to automate repetitive tasks. Give it a try the next time you’re editing audio.
