Simple question... I'm a little confused. When I use Acid2.0 I sometimes draw envelopes to turn an effect on. i.e. Draw an envelope for FX1 starting at -inf and going to 0.0 db, while at the same time turning the volume from 0.0db to -inf. Thereby eliminating the original sound source and only playing the FX channel. However in Acid3.0 when I do this, I sweep the FX in but when I fade the volume out, the whole sound fades out. I want to play the effects without playing the original so I can simulate high pass knob tweaks and such. Example -> Volume fade from full to off, while highpass fade from off to full... it sounds like im running it through a filter and twisting a knob, but now when I fade the volume out, I get no signal, like the effect is run through the volume slider, anyway I can get this nifty trick back? I'm a little confused on this, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hello,
Right click the track slider and select Post or Pre Volume respectively to make the effects bypass the track volume slider, and this will stop the bleedthrough.

See ya, Rockit
