Apple Final Cut Pro 7 - Manual (Page 902)

To record audio level or pan keyframes
1 Click the Record Audio Keyframes button in the button bar at the top of the Audio Mixer
to turn on keyframe recording.
Tip: You can click the Record Audio Keyframes button to turn keyframe recording on or
off during playback, if necessary.
2 In the Viewer or Timeline, move the playhead to the area of your sequence where you
want to begin recording keyframes.
It’s a good idea to start a few seconds before the section you’ll actually be mixing, to give
yourself time to get ready.
3 Begin playback of your sequence.
4 As your sequence plays, position the pointer over the fader or panning slider in the
relevant track strip, then hold down the mouse button to begin recording keyframes for
clips playing back in that track.
Place the pointer over
the fader slider to start
automation recording.
