Am i just dumb or the automation system in cubase is completly retarded? i mean i it was easy when i wrote orchestral tracks when there were only 3 controls needed . .
But massive has so much options that i'm abit overwhelmed . . now compared to ableton where it works in sort of like a chain it's a breeze to work with . .
Am i missing something or is the only way of writing an accurte automation i need to find a control code name under the track bar amongs the hundreds there and start drawing with a pencil >:(
Is there anyway easier to do this ? (The "write" live option dosent count because i cant tirn the knbos around as accuratly as i can write them manually)

record a quick 2 second live automation on the parameter you want and then right click on your track and click 'show used automation'. This will bring up your parameter because there will be some information recorded on it.

I tried it . . to no avail he shows nothing . . i recorded using the Write function the rate on an LFO and it playes it fun and runs the automation on run . . so it works . . but when i try that it does not bring it up . .

are your 8 macro controls being used for other things? Because if i remember correctly thhe macro controls appear at the top of cubase's list of massive parameters so assign the control you want to a macro and do it that way?

Thats the thing i don't get the massive catagory in the controls . . just some other rubbish and general stuff like track volume and pan, but in quick controls it adds the massive category . . something really wierd.
