Automation Gain Tool Fast Menu
Track Selection Menu button
To make the Automation Gain Tool Fast menu active for a given track:
  Click the Track Selection Menu button for that track in the Automation Gain tool.
The commands in the Fast menu appear dimmed until you select a track by clicking the Track Selection Menu button. (To apply the adjustments to multiple tracks, click additional Track Selection Menu buttons.) The commands vary depending on the types of points you set within the clip or sequence, as follows:
  With IN and OUT points: Commands apply adjustments to selected tracks between the points.
  With an IN point (no OUT point): Commands apply adjustments to full clips from the IN point to the end of selected tracks.
  With an OUT point (no IN point): Commands apply adjustments to full clips from the beginning of selected tracks to the OUT point.
  With no points: Commands apply globally (across entire tracks).
To apply the adjustments:
  Click the Fast Menu button, and select one of the following commands:
  Set Pan on Track: This command applies the same pan or volume levels currently set in the Audio Mix tool to all segments in the marked regions of the tracks.
  Filter Automation Gain on Track: This command removes approximately 50 percent of the keyframes in the marked region. If you press and hold the Alt key (Windows) or the Option key (Macintosh) while selecting the menu item, the system removes all keyframes in the selected area, except for the minimum and maximum peaks. The Avid application tries to save major gestures while removing redundant points and points on a linear ramp. This is useful for deleting extra keyframes after a recording.
  Adjust Pan/AutoGain on Track: This command opens a dialog box for making incremental adjustments to all current settings across segments in the marked regions of selected tracks.
For example, if you type –1 in the Gain Adjustment text box, the various audio level settings across all segments of the marked region of selected tracks are lowered by exactly 1ádB when you click OK.
  Remove Automation Gain on Track: This command removes all of the audio keyframes within the marked region.
  Remove Pan on Track: This command deletes all pan adjustments that have been applied to segments in the marked regions of selected tracks. Each audio clip is restored to its previous pan settings.
  Remove Pan/AutoGain on Track: This command deletes all automation gain adjustments that have been applied to segments in the marked regions of selected tracks. Each audio clip is restored to its previous pan and volume settings.
