Sync envelope start with clip start?

Post by p8guitar »

I have a clip which is 2 Beats and has its opacity set to an envelope which is 8 beats.
The opacity shall be 0 for 2 beats and then rise. But when I trigger the clip, the envelope is already running and not at beat 1 but somewhere else.

Is it possible to reset the envelope (= let it start at the beginning) when the clip is triggered?

This would work if the clip and the envelope had the same length, but the clip is 2 beats and the envelope is 8 beats long. When I set the opacity to clip position and envelope, the envelope is automatically set to 2 beats.

Ahh.. you want to loop the clip 4 times till it reach the final opacity?

Then the only work around i see is to use 4 clips in a row with autopilot.
