copy/paste Volume automation to another track in logic X

I need to copy automation from one tack to another. The process in the Logic Pro X manual does not seems to be working, it doesn't do anything. I found a video on you tube that shows a completely different method than the manual and it seems copy some of the automation (I need all of it) but does not paste it correctly. It seems like it would be an easy process. Any ideas?

Try this:


  • 1) Select the source Track and click ctr+cmd+E. That opens the Automation Event List. This is the List Editor showing all the Automation Data on that Track
  • 2) Click on one event in the list and then cmd+A to select all Events.
  • 3) Hit cmd+C to all the selected Events to the clipboard
  • 4) Select the target Track you want to copy the Automation to and click ctr+cmd+E again to open another Automation Event List, this time to display its automation data. It should be empty
  • 5) Click inside the empty list and hit cmd+V to paste all the automation data from the clipboard to this Track
  • 6) There is no step six.


Make sure that the target Track has the same components (Sends, plugins, etc) as the source Track, so the automation data match.


Hope that helps

For an the y of an X/Y controller, I tried duplicating an Aux track automation. I copied the plugin then the automation but the automation is assigned to "43 unused". I selected all the automation data and right clicked it. I could seemingly reassign the automation destination( the knob) but Logic does not reassign the automation nodes to that knob after I select it. Bug?
