Hey, wow. I get it now. You guys are awesome. Again.

Thanks all.

"Peter, I don't understand why you are saying to add a bus instead of just placing the volume envelope on the audio track. Either way requires a volume envelope somewhere to dynamically change the volume."

your totally, right, however what im referring to is a split your track into an indivdual outputs by using busses.

Basically assign a sound to a track, assign the track to a bus (which can then be rubber banded like a normal volume automation), route that bus to an output within the mixer, add your effects and voila...

this bus can be routed to any 6 audio channels, and is a good way for LFE manipulation :)

hope this made my post a lil clearer.

Well Peter,
A few things are unclear - to me anyway:

Splitting the track - does that mean you are keeping one signal intact and then sending one to the bus?

What is rubber-banding (in this context)?

What mixer are you refering to, an external one?

What is LFE (manipulation)?

LFE is low frequency effects. Or the "bass" channel in surround
(ie, the .1 in 5.1).
