Copy automation in Logic Pro for iPad
With the Copy button 
selected, you copy automation points by dragging them onto the track lane;. You can also use standard copy and paste procedures. The copying action places the automation points on the Clipboard, and you can paste them to multiple places on the same track or other tracks even if you are not in Automation view.
With an external keyboard, you can use the standard keyboard shortcuts Command-C for copy and Command-V for paste.
In addition, you can copy track automation to a new track when duplicating tracks.
