Hi.
I wonder if this is possible to automate the position of a certain point of a parmeter automation curve, with another parameter, or to say it more simply, change the shape of a parameter automation curve depending on another parameter value ?
What do you mean by position? Vertical position? Could you be more specific and give an exemple?
By position I mean vertical or horizontal position. in my case I have one continuous sound which is about scrapping some sand. I have a volume flat and continuous asset sand wich volume is altered by a “velocity” parameter. The more the scrapping is fast in-game, the more the volume of the event is loud (from -inf to 0db). I have another continuous parameter “volumeRange” which I want to control the volume range of the “velocity” automation (let’s say that when “volumeRange” = 0, “velocity” range = -inf to 0db; and when “volumeRange” = 1, “velocity” range = -6db to 0db). In this case I only want to change the vertical position of my minimum volume point, but why not being able to automate any value(x or/and y) of a point ?
You cannot do this kind of things. But in your exemple, you could maybe link your “range value” parameter to a compressor (ratio/threshold and gain).
Yes using a compressor could work but I fear that the result may not sound as natural. I think I rather use a second identical asset synchronized to the first one, without applying it the “velocity parameter” and fade beetwen the two assets with the “volumeRange” parameter. I don’t know if there is some people who would like to see a “automation point automation” feature implemented in the future but I think it would be quite interesting.

Good idea!
