Show automation curves in Logic Pro for Mac

Before you can add automation points to a track’s automation curves, you need to show the automation curves. Automation curves are displayed as color-coded curves and points on top of audio and MIDI regions across the track, running the length of the project. You can choose whether to view and edit automation across the track (track automation) or only within the track’s regions (region automation).

Figure. Showing track automation on for volume.

After you show the automation curves, you can choose which parameter you want to work with—Volume, Pan, or any other track parameter. You can work with multiple parameters on the same track by switching between automation curves using the Automation Parameter pop-up menu, or you can work in separate automation lanes, which appear below the main track.

Show automation curves

  • In Logic Pro, do one of the following:

    • Choose Mix > Show Automation (or press A).

    • Click the Show/Hide Automation button  in the Tracks area menu bar.

    An Automation button, an Automation Parameter pop-up menu, and an Automation Mode pop-up menu appear in each track header. When you choose an automation mode, for most automation modes the background color of the Automation Mode pop-up menu reflects the mode:

    • Gray background = automation is off

    • Mustard background = Touch mode

    • Orange background = Latch mode

    • Purple = Write mode

    For Read mode, however, the button and text color reflect the current state of automation and whether there is automation data present:

    • Green text on a gray background = automation is on but there is no existing automation data to display

    • White text on a green background = automation is on and there is existing automation data to display

    Any existing automation is displayed on the track or within the regions. If you show automation on a collapsed track stack, all the automation from included tracks is displayed. You can choose the parameter you want to automate—Volume fader, Pan knob, or any other track parameter—from the Automation Parameter pop-up menu.

Switch between track automation and region automation

After you show automation curves, you can easily switch between track automation and region automation. See Track automation vs. region automation for details on the differences between the two types of automation.

  • In Logic Pro, click the Automation button in the track header to switch between track automation and region automation.

Choose the parameter to automate

In Logic Pro, do one of the following:

  • Choose a parameter from the Automation Parameter pop-up menu in the track header.

    Figure. Showing the Automation Parameter pop-up menu open.

  • Control-click the track lane, then choose an automation parameter from the Automation Parameter pop-up menu in the shortcut menu that appears.

The parameter currently shown in the automation lane is shown at the top of the Automation Parameter pop-up menu. Volume, Pan, Solo, and Mute appear in the “Main” submenu. A submenu is also shown for Smart Controls; for more information on automating Smart Controls, see automate screen control movements.

Below the Smart Controls submenu, the Automation Parameter pop-up menu contains a submenu for each plug-in on the track. The plug-in submenus are numbered and named after the slot position and plug-in: 1 Sampler, for example. When using region automation with an instrument, a MIDI sub-section shows all available MIDI parameters available for you to automate.

Note: Logic Pro offers more than two dozen unassigned key commands that you can use to select the automation curves of various region automation parameters directly. You can assign these key commands to keys, controllers, or a Touch Pad using the Key Commands window. When you select one or more regions and then use one of these key commands, the chosen automation curve will be shown on all tracks with regions selected. If you use one of these key commands without any regions selected, the selected track will show the chosen automation curve. See assign key commands.

Automatically select which automation parameter to display

You can automatically show the automation curve of any parameter you click in a channel strip, plug-in editor, or track header on the main automation lane.

  • In Logic Pro, choose Mix > Autoselect Automation Parameter in Read Mode (or use the Toggle Autoselect Automation Parameter in Read Mode key command).

Automation must show in the main automation lane, and the automation mode must be set to Read, for “Autoselect Automation Parameter in Read Mode” to work. See Choose automation modes to learn more about the automation modes.

Mute an automation parameter curve

You can mute an individual automation parameter by turning it off in the track header.

  1. In Logic Pro, choose a parameter from the Automation Parameter pop-up menu in the track header.

  2. Place the pointer over the Automation Parameter pop-up menu, then click the On/Off button that appears.

    Figure. Automation Parameter pop-up menu.

When muted, the automation curve for the parameter will turn gray.

Show multiple parameter curves on automation lanes

  1. In Logic Pro, click the disclosure arrow at the lower left of a track header.

    Figure. Pointing to the automation lane disclosure arrow.

  2. Choose the parameter that you want to automate from the Automation Parameter pop-up menu in the track header.

  3. To add additional automation lanes, click the Plus button (+) that appears when you place the pointer over the track header.

    Figure. Pointing to the Plus button on an automation lane.

    All additional automation lanes are revealed. Each additional lane is set to an automation parameter type that’s already recorded but not currently shown. The active automation parameter remains on the main track.

Add, remove, and reorder automation lanes

In Logic Pro, do any of the following:

  • To add an automation lane: Place the pointer over the automation lane header, then click the Plus (+) that appears.

    Figure. Mousing the pointer over an automation lane.

  • To remove an automation lane: Place the pointer over the automation lane header, then click the X icon that appears.

    The selected lane is removed without deleting its automation.

  • To reorder automation lanes: Click an empty part of the automation lane header, then drag it up or down.

Show or hide automation lanes with used automation data

In Logic Pro, do any of the following:

  • To show automation subtracks (that were previously visible) or hide them: Click the disclosure triangle or use the key command for Toggle Automation Subtracks.

  • To show all previously visible automation lanes: Use the key command for Show Automation Subtracks.

  • To hide all automation lanes: Use the key command for Hide Automation Subtracks.

  • To show all automation lanes that contain automation data: Option-click the disclosure triangle or use the key command for Reset Automation Subtracks.

Note: The commands apply to all selected tracks.

Tip: You may find it easier to work with automation curves at a higher zoom level. To do so, drag the lower edge of the track header downward.
