Is there a way to position automation nodes precisely?
What I mean is, suppose I want to set volume node at -5.98 db. Dragging it up and down with the mouse gets it in the ballpark, but to get it really close is frustrating and time-consuming. So I usually end up settling for -5.73 or -6.12. Seems to me there must be a way to open a box where I can type in the exact value, but I can’t seem to find it.
Can someone point me in the right direction, or should I make this a feature request?
Just remember that the value shown can be weird. Make sure you know which one is being referenced. I’ve made that mistake more times than I care to count.
I don’t believe the second, lower option (the value box in the track controls) can be used to edit automation points (i.e. nodes). It can be used to set the value of an automatable parameter when the automation read is off. If the read is on, it only displays the current value of the parameter (at the cursor).
