From the manual:
PROCEDURE
1.On the Automation Panel, activate Touch, and activate Loop to activate it as Fill option.
2.Start playback.
3.Move the fader until you have found the volume setting that you need and release the fader to punch out.
The found > value is set within the range that is defined by the left and right locators> .
I’ve only had one cup of coffee so far, but doesn’t the above mean - and didn’t the older versions of Nuendo - punch the automation to the loop-range only, regardless of where the punch-out happened?
With Nuendo 7.0.35, if you punch out outside of the loop boundaries it writes automation in that outside area as well as in the loop region. Surely this can’t be right!?
Repro:
- Create audio track and place it in auto write mode, touch.
- Create a loop range about 30 seconds into the timeline. It only has to be say 5 seconds long.
- In the automation panel, set “Fill” to “Loop” (for convenience, click twice to lock the parameter)
- With the fader at zero gain change, press play from the start of the timeline. Ride fader down to infinity over about 3 seconds. Release to punch out - before you reach the loop region.
Result: you will have the 3 second attenuation to infinity at the point in the timeline you began that fader move, you will have it hold until the point you released the fader at which point you will have the preset return time to zero - AND you will have an instantaneous drop to minus infinity at the beginning of the loop range (correct), with the punch out and return to zero at the loop range out point.
Please confirm.
