"Now there are few different ways to delete automation within the track. When you delete automation, you can really just go into wherever the automation is and really just highlight it and delete it. But sometimes, you might actually catch automation, that you can't really see, you might not notice there. So one way to definitely be sure, is definitely do it the wave form. When you delete the wave form, it's going to take the automation with it. Like on this one, you can actually see like that within the volume, there's a little bit automation in there. I mean, there's different way you can actually take it and fix it, do different thing like that or just go to the main wave form view and just delete it. Now for sure, the actual automation is going to be gone. Now it is. Now when you are using automation for different things, you might be able to take a part of a track and duplicate it. When you duplicate it, it's automatically going to bring the automation with it. So if you don't want the automation, you might want to be able to like, go back to the original track and just delete it to wherever it is. If there's a volume issue and things like that, you want to actually go to that part, turn on the track that uses the volume and erase it."
