Or create 7 more tracks and move the track you want to automate with WR (such as your current track 1) to track 9 (since WR can't control tracks 1-8 because the controller has them in use) and the automation with WR will then work. So my belief is if you only have 2 tracks and ANY controller hooked up (through the Peripherals midi setup) you will not be able to use WaveRider without removing your controler in the Peripherals midi setup menu first.

That or remove faderport from the Peripherals midi setup and then Port 1 channel 1 will control track 1. So, since my faderport is set up to control tracks 1-8, I have to have at least 9 tracks in my mix and set WaveRider to Port1, Channel 1 so it can control what is on track 9 (the first one it CAN control). It bypasses whatever tracks your controller is using (at least with the faderport).

Production are real-life producers making creative plugins to help you achieve studio quality processing quickly and easily.I think you are might be having some issues with the way WaveRider routes through the Peripherals midi setup as I am.

Make it the first plugin on your channel for live guitars, vocals, bass, and drums, or anything that needs the smooth touch of a sympathetic virtual engineer. Outlaw Lite is the kind of toolbox plugin that you'll reach for every time you need to create balanced dynamics with a 'human touch'. The display shows the Peak and RMS volume for both the left and right channels and the amount of gain-riding. See precisely what Outlaw Lite is doing to the signal at a glance with the bold visual feedback display. The GAIN dial controls the master output and is very useful for setting accurate levels for precise A/B signal comparison. Use the GATE control to set a relative level so that the gain-rider ignores softer sounds. Adjust the intensity of the effect with the MIX dial and set the RMS target level with the TARGET dial. These 4 main dials give you flexible control over the fundamental parameters of Outlaw Lite, meaning that it's easy to make broad-strokes adjustments to the plugin's performance. Forget about drawing complex volume automation and let Outlaw Lite do the hard work for you, with smooth gain leveling and a wealth of features. Outlaw Lite listens to the incoming audio and compensates for volume changes to mimic a real-life audio engineer's mixing desk fader movement.

The Lite version of our acclaimed Outlaw plugin is a massive first foray into the gain riding world for you. Gain riding can be highly beneficial when mixing live sound, smoothing vocals, or balancing solo instruments. Advance features and presets are not included. Note: This is a Lite version of our Outlaw plugin.
