Very nice tutorial!
Thanks for the vid - your Sonar X1 Power book is a treasure as well.
Thanks very much, Sijel! I appreciate it. More videos soon...

Great vid Scott. Only one mistake. You said it's much easier to do in X1. Obviously as several users on here already know, nothing is easier in X1...........
Thanks, FBB! Ha! I guess I should have said that it's _my opinion_ that automation is easier in X1.

Wow! Great video!!!!
I'll be ordering that darn Power Book thingy! I realize I have a lot to learn in the world of X1. And I consider my self a power user!
Hope it'll be a European Kindle version soon. I can't wait to get more in depth with X1.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom Scott! 
Thanks, Marius! Yes, everyone should get the SONAR X1 Power book... and it's conveniently available right here in the Cakewalk Store:
http://www.store.cakewalk...ductid=30-CTSP1.00-20C

If you already have the book, feel free to post a nice review there in the Store.

As for the International Kindle version, we're still waiting... the publisher says the deal should be done soon, but soon means about 1 to 2 months. Sorry.

He he, yes, I've seen it in the Cakestore and also in a bookstore here in Oslo (the price was ridiculous). But buying a book like that in the "book format" is a sure way for me to not read it. I always put educational books on the shelf and that's where they stay. A digital version I bring with me everywhere. Good news about the Kindle version. A month or two? I'll try to wait.

Ha! Yeah, I can understand that. The eBook edition is definitely more convenient when you're on the move a lot. It does also provide some additional features like clickable links and the ability to search.

Thanks!

Hey Scott,

Great video, this is very useful.  I did have a few comments/questions.

This didn't work for me on a track with layers???  X1b.  Is there a different procedure when working with layers?

Also when a track envelope is used the faders no longer work.  Is it possible to adjust track overall volume with a fader when there is a volume automation?

I hope these questions make sense.

I would also like to thank you for all your contributions to making CW a rocking DAW!!!

Rock On,
Kz

Scott Garrigus demonstrates how to apply automation to data selections using Cakewalk SONAR. Versions 8.5 (and earlier) as well as X1 (and later) are covered. In addition, some tips for working with automation envelopes are included.

Watch at: http://www.digifreq.com/digifreq/video.asp?ID=6

And more videos at: http://www.digifreq.com/digifreq/videos.asp

Like it? Don't like it? Let me know...

Hey KZ,

Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.

No, the same procedure should work when a track has multiple layers. But envelopes only work with entire tracks. You can't have more than one volume envelope per track, if that's what you mean.

Press O on your PC keyboard to toggle Offset mode. This will allow you to adjust track parameters even if those tracks contain envelopes. The mode essentially allows you to apply an offset the envelope.

I was using your procedure on one track with 3 layers and it wouldn't work (could select, couldn't add the nodes).  Works on track with one layer.  Wondering if its a bug?

Hmmm... not sure what to tell you. It works fine here. Make sure you are hovering your mouse over the lower portion of one of the layers to drag and make a selection. Then hover your mouse near the top of the track. Then click and hold the left mouse button to create the nodes, and while continuing to hold, drag up/down to create the envelope segment.
