hi,
maybe someone got a tip for me.
when i finish a song i often like to render every track and work with the tracks in logic. now this can be a long time operation. is there a trick how i can render all tracks at once? i thought of jack os x and route every track direct into logic... anyone tried this? any othe ideas?
thanks and cheers!

If you're using Logic 7 simply rewire Live into Logic, and choose Export -> All Tracks As Audio Files. Even works offline.

the problem i think with rewire is, that i cannot have any plug-ins open in live when it is a rewire slave... (or can logic be the slave with version 7?)

You can have Live plug-ins opne, but not AU or VSTs. You can open AUs on the corresponding Logic tracks, though.

Logic can only be a Rewire master.

hm, so this is not working for me. i often have a lot of automation on au or vst effects in ableton. but thank you.

anyone tried jackosx for this purpose?

Make a track for every track and every return, set inputs appropriately, record arm, record, pray your cpu usage is not too high.

Personally tho' i record only the tracks/returns with VST's/AU's on them and then rewire all into protools (logic in your case)

Best of luck

I hope Live 5's freeze option will create plain wave file in the project's directory, so you could use freeze as an export option.

Yep, that's what I'm hoping for as well.

Great! VERY good hint! i don“t know why i did not thought of that myself, but the most times the best tips are the easy ones. thanks very much! i will try it

(by the way, whats the reason that you rewire all into pro tools and not just take the audio files and import them into pro tools?)
