has dissappeared!

anyone else got this problem, the drop down list on the channel no longer shows the parameters of the VST to automate, aaaargh, any help greatly appreciated :)

I am still trying to figure this out as well. RTFM, I know, but I have been too lazy to do it as of yet.

make sure 'show all parameters' is selected.
MrJiveBoJingles
Where is the "show all parameters" option?

seems to be a problem with 8 that I didn;t have with 7, Iv;e tried the new configure tool on the synth, i;ve tried recording automation, mapping it, etc still no joy lol

The only problem I have with automation in Ableton, is that it sometimes looses it when I save a project, to get the automation back I constantly have to click the 'back to arrangement' button

RTFM! :p.

He is referring to 'show all parameters' as opposed to 'show automated parameters only', from where you select what you want to automate on the channel in arrangement view, it's the very bottom one on the drop down list.

Okay, this is what I thought was meant. If I select "show all parameters," the only parameter available for automation is "Device On." See:

Same. I actually upgraded from Live 5, and automation worked fine in that version.

yup yup yup, anyone else having this prolem and know a work around?

KVR site has some guy saying download a text file to put in the preferences folder but not got a clue what he;s on about, baaaaaaa

Okay, finally figured it out with the "Configure" option. I don't really like this new manual way of doing things, I like the old drop down menu, but whatever.
