hi,
what are you guys doing when running out of CPU power?
Bouncing tracks, freezing tracks(not sure if you can in Live)
or what?

im starting to come up against maxing out the cpu. it's tough. so far ive either done partial mix downs or greatly increased my latency.

routing 1 or more midi tracks through audio tracks and then "bouncing" them works for me. Then instead of deleting the original midi track I simply shut off the vsti that way if I want to change something in the midi I can. Hope this helps.
I'm running on an old B/W G3 upgraded to 1ghz G4, Tascam us-122.
nice

hey udp, was wondering if you had a clean way to bounce tracks, everytime i bother trying to figure that out i always get recordings with bars of silence . . . is their a good way to tell "record this channel, for this exact length" ?

Udp - what an absolutely awesome tip. What seems obvious to some isn;t so str8 forward to others.
I have needed to save on my CPU 'juiceage useage' b4 and I must admit I didn't really think that my process was the best way.. I merely saved a b4 bouncedown and after bouncedown, but my way I lost all the original midi work.
What is Freezing tracks anyway ? OR should I rtfm ?

freezing comes from Logic,i think, if you run out of cpu in logic you freeze a track, it renders it to disk and saves cpu, but you won't be able to change anything without unfreezing it.
hope this helps

Yup, thats what I do and thats why Live needs a hide tracks feature.
