Need tutorial on adjusting volume of various tracks at different stages .

So i finally got my first song done in this rather marvellous DAW , But now i need to be able to adjust the volume on different parts throughout the mix .
Like say i have 1 - 2 - 3  tracks and i need to have pretty high volume on 2 for say 45 seconds and then it needs to be lowered for a minute and so on .
Hope i have made sense but am brand new to using DAW`s .
I want to get it all ready for being able to finally export it as a mp3 file and sharing with friends .
 
What is the process know as or can anyone point me to a tutorial .
 
Thanks 
Dan

Automation is your friend, and essential for mixing. It will do exactly what you need it to. Lots of tutorials on youtube.

A deep chesty bawl echoes from rimrock to rimrock, rolls down the mountain, and fades into the far blackness of the night. It is an outburst of wild defiant sorrow, and of contempt for all the adversities of the world. - Aldo Leopold
