Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Envelope Points
You can cut and copy selected envelope points and paste them at a different position in
the automation row.
When pasting envelope points, the following conditions apply:
• Envelope points can only be pasted into an envelope of the same type as the envelope
from which they were cut or copied. For example, envelope points from a volume
envelope can only be pasted into a volume envelope, not a pan or tempo envelope.
• Envelope points for an effect parameter can only be pasted into an envelope for exactly
the same effect parameter in exactly the same type of effect. You cannot paste envelope
points from one effect into another, even if they have parameters with the same name.
