Darren, my bad.  Sorry miss read that.  Try this then, locate the volume
control that you wish to automate then when focussed over it, press the
applications key, followed by the letter W.  That will have enabled the
automation write on that control.  Then, go into playback and fade out the
volume either using the controls on your numpad or by using a control
surface if you have one or, tby assigning a control on a MIDI device such as
a keyboard.  Once you have got the fade right, unarm the control when
focussed over the volume by pressing the applications key, followed by the
letter W.

Hi Phil.

How would setting two snapshots for a start and finish apply to a gradual
fade out of a track.

I would've though I'd need to have the track playing and record the
automation in realtime

Cheers
Darren
