Can you render 8tracks 45 minutes easily
I have an eight track recording that I did live. Will sonar platinum choke if I render 45 minutes at once or should it be fine? Also I recorded the piano midi so need to render it as well. This is just a rough for the timing of the video so not concerned about quality. Should I be able to copy the recorded midi to True Pianos and it render effortlessly for 45 minutes? Thank you

You want to render it with fast bounce or realtime? Either way should be fine but if you are doing it realtime you may wan't to bump up the latency a little to avoid a potential drops out.

Thank you Noel. Fast bounce. Appreciate the time.

Wow--that was so fast--only took a few seconds to render. Thanks again for the help.

You really mean it just took a few seconds for Sonar to render your 45 minutes long project ?!  Wow man... I really would like to know how that happened ? I guess all your tracks were purely audio with no effects, automation, and so on ? But still.... and yes, you did mention midi routed to True Pianos. My Core i7 laptop takes at least a min to fast bounce 4 to 5 mins of a project with say 8 to 10 tracks, with lots of soft synths and effects of course. But still.... I guess your computer must be some ultra-tetra-futuristic fast one... I sure envy that kind of rendering speed man...

Well, I left the room thinking it was going to take 10 minutes or so but came right back and it was done-- don't know the exact time. Only 6 tracks drums, bass, guitar, one vocal and midi piano. Use Waves plug-ins on probably 3 busses and individual tracks. If I am doint a full scale production with Omnisphere, 30 tracks of various instruments and lots of envelopes, it takes about a minute for a 5 minute song. It is a smooth running computer though. Just upgraded to Windows 8 and not many extras outside of DAW related software. edit--oh, also since it was a rough only for timing for the video tech, it was only 16 bit--that makes a big difference.

That's WAY too slow. My 100+ track 12 minute project with tons of Fx & plugins takes approx 30 seconds to render

Export time is also proportional to the latency. At low latencies lower than 10 ms it will take longer generally.

Yeah, I guess I do have a low latency setting, can't remember if its 10 ms or less but I think it should be at the 25 ms mark. Will check that when I get back home. It hasn't hampered smooth triggering of my soft synths or even playback of many heavy synths at a time, so I never really was pushed to increase it... at least to date... touchwood. Rendering directly to a compressed format (like .mp3) possibly takes longer than to a .wav format maybe ? I render a lot mostly to .mp3 for quick sharing to family/friends by email/cloud.

Yes because SONAR must export the wave and then encode the mp3 from the exported wave.

Yeah. Thought so that was the case. Haven't rendered to .wav for quite a while. Will do a comparison soon to see how much difference it makes for me. Thanks and cheers...

If I may make a suggestion, why don't you render to wav, then use winlame to convert to mp3. Do you not need a wav copy? Habit of mine as I always open up my rendered wav in SoundForge to see if there is clipping/xtra processing/left and right balance ok/frequency analyze/balance with other songs/rms values.

I consider my wav exports as my masters.

My Sonar exports are pre-masters.
