Notes:

•The trim level is added to the automation settings so your envelope is preserved, but with a boost or cut applied. For example, setting the trim control to -3 dB has the same effect as decreasing every envelope point by 3 dB.

Bus sends are pre-volume (and pre-mute) by default. To change to post-volume (and post-mute), click the Pre/Post button to switch to
