Hi!!

How come it's not possible to freeze (convert track to audio and remember pluginsettings) in project mode?

I have really missed that recently with a bit hefty mix/ master project.

Workaround was to save session/ project version and go back and bounce ALL tracks again (took 35 minutes for the session..)

Or... even better... freeze individual plugins on a track!!! :-)

Best regards,

Pelle Fridell

Right click on track. Transform track to rendered audio. Preserve real time settings.

Hi and thanks for answering Jorge!

As I can figure out, rendering and preserving realt time status is unfortunately only possible in Song-mode.

It is possible to bounce a track, but then all realtime settings is gone... :-(

I really like the Tokyo Dawn Labs series og plugins for mastering, but they get a bit hard on the cpu, especially in "insane" mode..

Best,

Something I'd like to point out is this isn't just for saving CPU power; it is almost essential when using hardware inserts for mastering via Pipeline. If you only rely on "Bounce" in the Project Page then you can not re-print the inserts without going into the Undo History and undoing everything you did in S1 after the Bounce, even if they had nothing to do with the inserts.

This feature is greatly needed in the Project Page.
