I want to automate all my faders during composing and producing. After I’m done, I want to switch the faders to “Trim-Mode”. In ProTools, this function does give me a second pair of faders overlaying the old faders, which I can move, automate or do whatever I did with the first pair.
As far as I understand, the Trim mode only lets me overwrite (adding or subtracting) the automation of the first fader. But it always jumps back to 0 as soon as I release it. Let’s say I automated the synthbass beautifully, but later, I realize the synth is +3db too loud. I don’t want to change the Inputgain which affects the volume the plugins are hit. I also don’t want to create a VCA, cause they’re reserved for groupings. I also don’t want to use single Faderplugins, because I will lose the overview.
Is there any possibility too change the trim-fader behaviour to achieve this basic ProTools feauture?
