Linking Volume to a clip

With a "difficult" audio track I will use the volume ("rubber-band) feature - creating inflection points so the volume is raised/lowered to provide the necessary effects.

However, as I see it, the volume/timeline is fixed, so if one moves the clip (or trims it, etc.), the volume settings remains in the original place, on the Timeline.
The only FIX seems to be to redo the audio-level work....unless I don't notice, so the new Edit has Old settings....Yikes!

I don't understand why this is the case, since one can move clips very easily. It's as though the designer of "Vol" never used the Editor.

Am I wrong, or using the Vol feature incorrectly, perhaps?

FWIW I usually raise the gain, (left of track), so I can raise the Vol above the normal setting, since I can still reduce it to zero (e.g. to cut out an electrical click on the Audio line.
Do others do this, I wonder?

Are you using an Audio Envelope to control your volume levels?

With an Audio Envelope, you can set the volume levels to precise levels at precise points.

Audio Envelopes can also be attached to your events so that, if you move the event clip up or down the timeline, the volume settings follow it.

Will that do what you need?
