VST automation in Reaper


Zenitram
 Share

Recommended Posts

Can someone point out how to automate the movement of a knob on a VST FX thingie in Reaper?

I have one track of audio, with a VST EQ and compressor on it. I want to record the movement of one of the EQ knobs, so there's movement of that paremeter during the track.

I can't get my head round the way to do it in Reaper. Do I create a new track? And then what?

Any help? Many thanks!

Good evening, Zenitram...

In each track 'control box', on the left, is a button marked 'env', which brings up a window allowing the selection of whichever control you wish to automate; just tick the relevant box(es...). There will be an extra 'track' visible for every control selected. In the 'control track' there will be a line representing the level of that control. Add 'points' to the line (right click...) and move the line to the level you require at any particular part of the piece.
Ask for more if more is needed.
Hope this helps; subject to correction, completion and/or contradiction from others...
