What you’ve posted looks more like an alteration to this audio event’s envelope for volume. If so, this is not automation for the channel volume of this track.
Ahh that explains why I’m barely now finding out about it, I rarely use the automation panel. I must’ve enabled it at some point not knowing what it did.
Edit: For anyone who doesn’t already know about this, it’s the “Show Data on Tracks” option in the Automation Panel when you click on the tiny gear icon.
Funny how some people prefer having all their automation in one lane. Coming from Sonar, which has All automation on the same lane, I personally find the way Cubase does it MUCH better and intuitive.
Well I never wanted all the automation on one lane, I just wanted it overlayed on top of the clip so I can easily match my automation curve to the audio/MIDI.
I believe this is because it used to be far less ‘mature’. I seem to recall trying to work with this in Cubase 4 (the lines weres blue?) and it was maddening… sometimes you couldn’t even delete a curve if you changed yer mind.
Thanks. I’ll have to give it a fresh look. Appears MUCH nicer.
I’ve missed this feature since I moved to Cubase from Pro Tools…glad to finally find it here, thanks!
P.S.
Has anyone noticed the new handles that appear when you mouseover the plugins (Insert, select & preset) and sends? Or am I late to the game? I don’t remember seeing this in 7.0.4?!

It should be mentioned, that Cubase automation is not sample accurate !
Depending on the project/system latency, it can be off, noticeably.
So the wave/midi visualization can only be seen as a coarse ‘aiming aid’ …
It drops another track into view and shows the data over this, which defeats the screen space saving that could have been achieved by showing the data over the source track? If that’s what the user wants by ticking that box?
