Ableton equivalent to Logic's "Bounce in Place"?

Post by guitar346 » Thu Feb 18, 2021 4:41 pm

Does Ableton have an equivalent to Logic's "bounce in place", which "duplicates" a track except the new track is an audio track where the audio sample is processed (rather than being processed)?

I'm interested in reverse reverb swells. They're easy to make in Logic due to the reverse reverb swell feature. I guess in Ableton, you have to create a new track, record the reverb, then reverse it. Right?

You can also Freeze the Track, then (Ctrl+)drag the resulting frozen Clip into a Audio Track.

The frozen Clips still look like the original (MIDI Clips still look like MIDI), but when you drag them into a audio track it will show the frozen audio with whatever FX.

Which is faster between Resampling and Freeze+Drag depends on the situation (with longer tracks Resampling my be faster to setup).

There is a paid M4L device (3 EUR) that automates the freeze+drag process:

This is probably the closest functionality Ableton has to what was requested and is typically what I do to achieve processed audio effects.
