After coalescing Trim automation, what happens to the Trim playlist?

• A. It resets to a flat 0 dB graph
• B. It remains unchanged
• C. It doubles its values
• D. It becomes silent

Answer: (A)

When you coalesce Trim automation, the changes get baked into the clip’s gain and the Trim automation is reset to a neutral state. That means the Trim playlist becomes a flat 0 dB graph, because the previous level adjustments are now embedded in the clip gain rather than as ongoing Trim automation. The audio isn’t silenced or amplified beyond the baked change; you’re simply seeing the Trim lane reset to zero since its effect has been consolidated into the clip.
