Multiple track effects envelopes -ACID Product Family

Subject:Multiple track effects envelopes Posted by: Daveygravey Date:6/7/2001 4:54:56 AM Hello all, Newboy to this post. I am not sure If ACID 3 is able to do what I want but here goes (I have recently upgraded from ACID 2). I have written a dance tune of around 5 mins using about 15 tracks. The effect I am after is similar to a 'bass cut' button on tunrtable mixers BUT only for about 30 secs. At about 3 mins in the tune I want the bass to slowly dissapear from ALL the tracks then, at about 3mins 30s, I want the bass to come back. I guess I am after something like an envelope which would effect all tracks at the same time. Can you help.

You can also try other EQ's. See ya
