Whoa. Thanks for this link CJ !!!! I'll have to mix a song this week and I know that I'll need to print stuff because I most propably will run out of cpu power. This will help me A LOT.

This seems like a lot of work. I still can't believe Pro Tools is the industry standard and has not incorporated basic freezing tools. In Sonar, all you have to do is click "apply FX" and you're done. I wish Cubase's freeze function were as seamless as that. It sucks you can't edit a frozen track in Cubase.
Also, does anyone find it incredibly annoying that you can only have 5 insert effects on a track in PT? I keep trying to go back to PT, but it seems to be lacking so many features I can find elsewhere but perhaps its just me. I am certainly no PT expert. Am I missing something?

i don't see how this is easier than using 1 instrument track and then creating 1 new audio track when you want to print it.
if you have more than one track you want to print you can do them all in one pass if you have enough available voices.

While that is a very cool idea, and quite useful..I really don't see how it's any faster then making a new track and bussing one track to the other, am I missing something here? You still have to compensate for the delay, and this seems to be 3 or 4 extra steps....

Ok the RTAS instrument one is very cool...not sure about the insert one though....
PS.
10 inserts may not make this update for PT (friday), but it more then likely will have "presets"...AKA channel strips like Logic.

Yea i think i do this way. I just take track with audio and my plugins and i put output to something like buss 1 then i create new audio track and i put the input of that to buss 1 and then record enable new audio track and then record. Then audio from my track with plugins is routed to new track and printed plus you can do like 5 tracks at once this way. For instance like if you wanted all your drums tracks with drumagog and eq and comp or whatever printed to save cpu. Then after i print i just make all drum tracks with plugins on them inactive then and i can always go back and change something and just reprint if needed. I also do this with revalver mkII since its a cpu hog.
Not really easier per se', but different. I actually like doing it this way, to be honest.
Seems more tidy to my OCD brain.
You're welcome all the same, haha

Is there a short cut or something for bypassing plugins without actually opening and hitting bypass in the plugin window. On that video the guy just clicked on plugin name in the insert and it went gray in bypass and he didn't even open plugin window.
Any idea's on this??

On PC its Ctrl+Click or on a MAC i think its Cloverleaf(apple-thing)+Click
as for the topic, i've actually been doing it this way for a couple months, figured it was common knowledge, thats why I didn't ask how to accomplish it prior to figuring it out, lol.
I like this way much better than creating a new bus and a new track. I really wish they would include proper track freezing in future PT versions. However, what probably bugs me the most in the current PT LE are the limited "import session data" features.

PT HD is the industry standard, PT LE is not. I also got pretty tired of the limitations in PT, the audio quality when you bounce the files changes drastically, you have to listen to the whole song while doing the bounce, and you are limited to whatever M - Audio products, and Digidesign, I have since then moved on to Calkewalk Sonar, and I find it much better.
That is a pretty cool video. You can also record multiple takes of a single track on the same track in Protools in case you want to use certain parts. You have to be careful with that quick punch he is talking about because after you reach the maximum 32 tracks in PT LE, your quick punch starts having issues.

thats a pretty cool trick. i didn't know that quick punch stores audio in its buffer during playback.

Does anybody know if that's still not possible in Cubase 4?
Is that the case for HD as well or just for LE?
