Automation
Cubase Studio 4 offers a fully-featured automation system that allows you to automate nearly all mixer and effect parameters. The same goes for VST instruments, regardless of whether they are integrated plug-ins or third-party vendors’ instruments.
The Automation system in Cubase provdes two options for automating parameters:
Drawing Automation Envelopes
Every track in the Project window contains automation sub-tracks for all automatable parameters of the given track type, which you can show and hide on demand.
Cubase Studio 4 allows you to draw and edit automation envelopes directly in the panel, and puts several line and curve tools at your disposal to do this.
Automation via the Write and Read Buttons
The Write and Read buttons allow you to record and play back automation data; Write and Read buttons are available for all mixer channels as well as for every effect plug-in/VST instrument.
