Chokkyhen Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Hello. My project has too many tracks for my RAM to handle so I want to temporarily bounce my instrument tracks onto one so I can hear them and work on the voice tracks. I've tried to do this twice. The first time I didn't set parameters (cycle mode the length of the project) and it bounced about 4000 bars before it stopped. The second time I did set parameters and it did the same. Also it bounced all the tracks onto seperate tracks. So how do I do this? You can see that I I've done this before - the voice tracks at the bottom are all on one track. I want to unbounce those today (hope I can). xxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Nahmani Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Make sure your project end marker is at the end of the project? In the ruler, all the way to the left. Drag it back to a reasonable value. Also consider freezing the tracks rather than bouncing them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chokkyhen Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 Thank you! I've been exporting short midi files by bouncing some tracks and setting the cycle mode for the few bars I want. Are the markers different to that and if so how do I set them? Also does freezing a track stop CPU usage? I've ticked the freeze box in the menu and now I see a snowflake on most tracks but not all. Do I just click on it? Can I undo that later? x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chokkyhen Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 ...update..I've clicked on the tracks I want to freeze (I had no idea you could do this) and now it's going to 4000 bars again before it stops I guess.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chokkyhen Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 Is the end marker to do with the arrangement track? Do I need to put Outro at the end to stop it going to 4000 bars? I don't understand how I've been successfully exporting short midi files using the cycle mode to mark beginning and end. I dind't know about freezing tracks so I bounced all the vocals onto one track. Can I unbounce those now? How do I do it please? Sorry to ask so many questions. xxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution David Nahmani Posted February 8, 2023 Solution Share Posted February 8, 2023 The end marker is that dark gray triangle at the very end of your Tracks area: Also make sure you don't have "Include Audio Tail" selected in your export or bounce settings? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
