Make sure that you're getting above and below 50% on the automation curves, Senator Cat. The Power button is a two state switch; it's on or off. So anything from 51-100% will turn it on, and under that will turn it off. It's also worth noting that the StudioVerb will retain whatever state it's at when playback stops, and won't change until it reaches another message in the opposite "pole " position. It might be better to embed a default "on or off" right at the start of the project, to insure that it snaps back to where you want it.

I've been testing the automation out here, and I'm sorry, but I can't get it to "not work". The only thing that I can think of is to try that "50%" rule above. If it were me, I might automate the Wet/Dry mix of a reverb instead. That way, you have the option of either a sudden or gradual reverberated introduction, and you avoid that annoying "DC pop" that you get with toggling the Power button. HTH

there's no wet/dry mix on the project 5 reverb, i guess proximity will have to do.

I want to know right now how many of you got an extra reverb that I didn't get. <g>

Seriously, Cat, I was testing with the StudioVerb2 plugin; I thought you'd implied the same. So I went back to check out all the MS DX plugins, or Cake's, or Sonitus:FX effects; just in case that was what you're using. But nothing without some way of Wet/Dry mixing or with a proximity control. I din't check out the Lexicon, because you can't use that in P5.

So, we need to get on the same plate .. er, page with this reverb. Can you describe the feature set a little further? Maybe I can recognize it from that.

but when the now marker gets to the "off" node the effect does not turn off.

,, it,,, well ya,, know,,, turns off,, ya just don't see it,,,,, ya working in sonar,,,, right,, with the "kinetic reverb",,,, it works as expected,,,,,, it's,,,,,, just the power button ,, stays on,,, well,,,, not really ,,ya know,,,, with the P5 studio verb",,,, the,,button ,,,,visually goes "on and offf;,,,,,,, no problems,,,,,,,automating the power ,,,,,,,, on this end,,,,,, the "kinetic" reverb shows up ,,in the fx bin ,,,, as "reverb',,,, oh ,, thats ,,right ,, ya don't have 'kinetic, ,, do ya "B",,,,, thats to bad,,,,,,

the button visually goes on.......i can see.........it...........butt it ,........,,,,,,,never goes off,,, i can see it stays ON the...whole === time

i have kinetic, it sits in a folder un used.

Try to put the verb on an aux channel and make the automation aux send on/off , i presume u are using automation on an inserted verb ?
