Default Strange automation knee...

When I insert two automation points for a JSFX parameter, set the first one at -12 dB to "fast end" and then raise the second one to 6 dB, what looks like a hard knee appears at the point where the value would correspond to 0 dB.



Surely this is not as it should be?
I expected a smooth transition from -12 dB to 6 dB, not this jerk at 0 dB.

If I do the same thing with track volume automation, I get the smooth curve that I expect (on top of the gif below).



but not so for automating the JSFX slider.

So... is this as it should be?

JS Tone Generator.
And I'm automating the Wet Mix slider.

I tried just now also the JS White Noise Generator, and if I change the max value of the Noise Volume to 6 dB and recompile (Ctrl+S), then I get the same hard knee at 0 dB (after reloading it).

All of the point shapes, except Square, give such a hard knee at 0 dB.

This now looks like a bug to me.

Top is automation of JS Tone Generator, Wet Mix parameter, with shape of the second envelope point set to Fast end.

Below it is automation of JS White Noise Generator, Noise Volume parameter, with the second envelope point set to Slow Start/End.
And this is with the Noise Volume edited to allow to go to 6 dB.

So you think this is a bug...?
