Locking envelopes to events
Track envelopes extend for the length of a track and are independent of the events on the track. This means that the envelope remains in place when you move the events in the track. However, track envelopes can be set to move with the underlying events, thus preserving the timing of envelope points in relation to events.
To lock all of the envelopes in a project to the events in which they occur, click the Lock Envelopes to Events button (
) or, from the Options menu, choose Lock Envelopes to Events. You can turn this feature off by clicking the button again.
