Is everybody bouncing???

Post by Laura_Live » Tue Nov 27, 2007 4:27 pm

Hello,

I wondered if anybody during mixdown is recording the stereo or multi output of Live to a medium (say tape for example) rather than bouncing it into a file ...

Which experiences did you make?

How do you handle delay issues within the tracks?

By making the buffer larger (2048)??

Help appreciated!!! 8)

Interesting. Can I ask what your idea is? Why wouldn't you bounce to a file?
Before speaking, learn telling. And to tear magic from science is very dumb pupil-like.

I have recorded mixes to tape in the form of cassette, reel to reel and VCR. I mostly did this just to experiment with how it would sound. Some people do it for the actual warmth or texture that is applied.
Ableton’s engineers are hard
at work developing code that will allow our software to predict the future, but we don’t
anticipate having this available until at least the next major release.

Since all you hear during mixing and composing, infact working in Live, is determined by the sound of your D/A (digital / analogue) conversion, wouldn't it make sense to record that rather creating a bounce that you never truly heard before?

Or is that CRAZY??

Your ADDA converters are all you got. What you bounce is what you hear.
