5.After an envelope is added to a track, you can set-up the Behringer BCF2000 to record the volume, pan, and mute envelope’s moves in your ACID project.

a.On the Behringer unit, turn on the automation mode by selecting Downshift+Edit.

b.Place the cursor at the beginning of your ACID project.

c.Use assignable button 4 to play your project. For more information, see Assignable buttons on page 293.

As the cursor moves past the envelope points, the faders will move automatically (volume), the top row button will light red (mute), and the red lights around the track knob will light up (pan).

Tip: You can add points to the envelope as the project is playing back. For example, by moving a fader, you can add points to a volume envelope.
