Hi all!
A bit of a newbie qustion here I suppose, but I can't seem to get this right:
I've just made the switch from working with VI inside my DAW (Pro Tools 9) to working in VEP. All seems fine except for one thing - volume automation. When working inside my DAW I could of course use the Audio Volume paramenter on my instrument track to automate fader movements over time. Now that I'm sending MIDI data to VEP instead, how do I achieve this? I want to send the same automation that made my faders move in Pro Tools to VEP and have those faders move correspondingly.
I understand that one option is to do this volume riding on the return aux back to Pro Tools, but that would mean I would need one return for every instrument within VEP. I was hoping to just send stems of the sections back to PT.
The feature list for VEP states :
Mixer Automation
Use AU/VST/RTAS automation from your sequencer to control Vienna Ensemble PRO’s mixer (volume, pan and sends).
Which sound exactly like what I want to do, but I just can't seem to find how to do it, and the manual is of no help on that subject. Can anyone point me in the right direction here? (Or set me stright if I am misunderstanding something)
Thanks a lot!
Erik
