Copying and pasting panning automation

[Mike Andrews]

Hi,
When composing I quite often have a stereo sound source moving from left speaker to right. When I do this I find I cant copy and paste the left channel pan automation to the right channel . Is there anyway of doing this?


Thanks in advance, Mike.

paste special command I think.

Paste special will do.

But: is there a known trick to Paste Reversed? So that if I have drawn an automation for left channel going for example from left to right I could copy it and paste to the right channel in way that would make it going from right to left?

Would it be more efficient to have your L&R on a stereo track so the Pan function would work as a balance control and you would only need to address a single function instead of matching 2 functions with opposite intentions?

Track View : Left Pan --> Copy
Track View : Right Pan --> Cmd + Ctrl + V
(paste an automation to a "foreign"/different-type - paramter)

Thanks so much for this. It was still useful in 2017, with Pro Tools 12. I'm posting because of a conflict I found: Turns out that Evernote was swallowing up ctrl-cmd-v. So if it doesn't work, try checking for other apps that are heavy on key shortcuts.
