Hi guys. Ok, im kinda gettin a lil dodgy now, because after numerous attempts im just not able to automate anything in Spectrasonics atmosphere. Sometimes it so happens in certain vsts where in sometimes when u automate it at the very moment it doesnt work... but if u stop and play again it does. But ive tried all of this.. it still doesnt work??
Could anybody give me some insight?? Am i missing something? Or is it tht atmosphere is a vst tht i cannot automate? Help please!
thanks

u have to make automations from Atmosphere in the Keyeditor ... Instead of Velocity u chage for exampe to "brightness" wich is the cutoff ... and draw the automation by hand ...
Don't know why SPectrasonics didn't Programm any mapping (yeT) ... but like this it works ...

073 Amp Env Attack
074 Master Filter Cutoff

091 Mod Amp Amount
092 Mod Pan Amount
093 Pitch Env Depth
094 Pitch Env Time
095 LFO Depth
096 LFO Rate
097 Filter Env Attack
098 Filter Env Decay

If you want to use a MIDI control surface to write automation
In SX, go into Preferences -> MIDI and make sure 'MIDI Controller Input to Automation Tracks' is ticked. MIDI controller information will now be recorded as VST automation for that CC# on the MIDI track controlling the instrument, ie. you have to have that MIDI track selected and write-enabled for automation when recording your controller movements. Now assign the appropriate controller number to whichever control on your surface you want to use to automate a particular control, and off you go!
If you want to draw the automation by hand
Open up the automation lane for the MIDI track controlling the synth, and click the name of the parameter displayed in the lane to bring up the menu showing the other available parameters. Select 'More', then select the MIDI controller number you need from the 'All CC' folder at the bottom of the menu that appears. When you then go back to the arrange window the automation lane will have changed to the MIDI controller you selected, and you can write your automation using the standard tools.
Piece of piss, honest.

+1. I am, for 8 years being the child of notes-drawing, mouse-automating, non-keyboard playing, always forgot about Midi controllers automation 
Now, thanks everybody form clearing this up.
