This post focuses on making your tracks sound more dynamic with automation.
Automation has been with us for a long time. Before there were computers, it wasn’t too uncommon to see engineers, producers, and assistants all at the board to move faders and push buttons in real-time as the mix ran its way through the board. These days we have computers to do the handiwork for us, we just have to know when and how to automate our work.
Automation can be used for creation motion, enhancing performances, customizing sounds, and adding flavor with effects.
