Clip Envelopes

[Fred Lessing]

Hi,

In Sonar, I simply right-clicked an audio clip and added an envelope (e.g., volume) to then edit it. I can't find how to do this in the current version of Cakewalk. Any idea? Is it also possible for MIDI clips?

I'm using version 2022.11, build 021 64 bit

Here an example of what I see:

For MIDI clips, you'd add a Velocity envelope to them, since volume, modulation, etc. are all track based. For audio clips, you can add a clip gain to it.

Have a look over near where you see the track name, there's dropdown which says Clips. Set that to whatever automation you want to add, then set it back to Clips when you're done.

There's mouse/keyboard modifiers to do this without using the edit filter, but that's the first thing to look at and get used to - you'll find most envelope things are based around the Edit Filter dropdown.

Or click Middle Mouse button when in the right hand pane for the HUD with the Edit Filter in.  And remember shift-right click in the right hand pane toggles your edit filter status between the last 2 states (so quick to get back to clips).
