Automation Buttons

‌Automation Buttons‌

The Fairlight Desktop Console includes automation controls designed to allow the operator to record every static and dynamic parameter change you make in the process of balancing, mixing, and sweetening the overall sound of your timeline in the Fairlight page. The six Automation buttons offer the same automation controls available in the Fairlight page Automation toolset.
