MIDI Controller Automation Setup Dialog

In the MIDI Controller Automation Setup dialog, you can specify how existing MIDI automation is handled on playback and new automation data is recorded in a MIDI part or as track automation. All settings that you make in this dialog are saved with the project.

To open the MIDI Controller Automation Setup dialog, select MIDI > CC Automation Setup.

Record Destination on Conflict (global): Allows you to determine which destination is used if MIDI controller data is received by Cubase and both the Record and the Write Automation buttons are enabled. Select MIDI Part to record MIDI part automation. Select Automation Track to record the controller data on an automation track in the Project window.
Automation Merge Mode (global): Allows you to specify the global merge mode for automation.
Controller list: Lists all MIDI controllers for which you can specify the record destination and the merge mode for automation separately. This gives you full control over the MIDI automation (destination as well as merge mode) in your project.

Automation Merge Mode: Click in the Automation Merge Mode column for a MIDI controller to specify what happens with data for this specific controller on playback.
