ABSTRACT
Nowadays, audio sequencers let us write the automation for virtually every control in the mix and, moreover, provide graphical editors in which automation can be corrected or even drawn from scratch. There is no need for 12 hands since we can automate different controls during different passes. Never in the history of mixing was writing and editing automation as easy as it is today, with audio sequencers. It is surprising that many DAW users fail to comprehend the benefits of this powerful facility and the potent effect automation can have on the mix.
