Automation problems

As the video here depicts, despite editing (and properly targeting) all automation tracks, the Bass track still drops it's volume...forcibly. Is there anything I am missing?

Please pardon the double post, but it seems to have stopped working. I keep "pressing remove song-global automation", seeing as I cannot find "remove global automation", but nothing is working.

Oh, and I just remembered, I am using 1.1.9.0, in case that means anything.

1.1.9.0 is highly bugged. Please upgrade to the latest public beta build immediately (1.2.0-rc).

Remove Song-Global Automation is correct, and under normal circumstances should work. Let's see what updating to the 1.2.0-RC does for this issue.

The issue remains unresolved. Furthermore, the time tracker is nowhere to be found, where I could slide to any point in time in the window.

Reset the theme.

Menu -> Edit -> Settings -> Paths ->
Clear out the field Themes Directory, press OK and restart LMMS. This should give you back the timeline.

Thanks. Now, I have targetted all Automation tracks to their proper sound track sections, but the Bass seems to be...connected...to...

...Oh. Ohhhhhhhhhhh.
So, I should just...disconnect all but 1 of those, right? I mean, including the Bass track.

It increases by 1, every time you drag another automation track with 1 connection over it. It increases by how many were connected by what was dragged onto it. This is different from overwriting the non-automation tracks. Uhhh, oops. I should just...delete and copy instead of overwrite.

...I should be feeling pretty stupid right now.

One additional heads-up:
If you use the RC you cant copy automation. This feature is lost in RC
