badgeroo Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 This is most likely a dumb question: I'm trying to do some level setting in my mix. When I stop playback after setting the channel fader to a level I like, the fader automatically resets to 0db. What gives? I've never seen this happen before.

Solution des99 Posted April 11, 2021 Solution Share Posted April 11, 2021 Are you in Automation Read mode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgeroo Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 Yes. Facepalm if that is the fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Set the automation to Off if you are not using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgeroo Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 I think the Automation may be the issue as I am using the Waves Vocal Ride plugin on my lead vocals. Didn't realize it would effect the use of the fader. Noob mistake. Thanks y'all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 No, Waves Vocal Ride doesn't affect the use of the fader on the channel strip in Logic's mixer. They're two independent faders. The only reason the channel strip's volume fader would move automatically is if it has its own automation (or a control surface is sending a signal to Logic).

badgeroo Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 Aha, bingo! Looks like I had accidentally added some automation points on the volume. Thanks, David! Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
