V-Vocal clips and CPU efficiency
Which is a more efficient way of utilizing v-vocal on a vocal track:
1. Make the entire track a v-vocal clip and manually adjust the pitch on the words/phrases that need it
or
2. Make individual v-vocal clips on the words and phrases that need pitch corrected?
Is one method preferable to another as far as reducing CPU usage/glitching, or does it not matter?
Thanks
Rusty

Definitely #2 in my book. You are going to tax your resources real quick if you do an entire track at once in vv!
I tend to do small blocks... usually a phrase or two at a time for the ones that need tweaking. When I am done, bounce to clip to remove v-vocal from the equation altogether.

Can you expand on the "bounce to clip" when you are finished? Are you bouncing to a clip after you have gone through the entire vocal track and done all of your individual v-vocal clips? And what exactly does this create and why would you do this - does it cut down on the likelihood of glitching?

I'm think he means part out the vocal track into separate clips (words, phrases ) , process 1 clip with V. Vocal, apply effect , then proceed to the next clip to be processed. Sorry about jumping in. Hope I helped.

Pretty much...
I will just v-vocal the parts that need it (rather then the whole track).
Usually, I will v-vocal all parts needing to be done first, then bounce to track when all are completed. No reason why other then its my preference.
But, you do tend to want to bounce to track (whether you do it after each vv edit or not is up to you) once you are done, because v-vocal uses lots of resources. If you bounce to track (basically committing the changes you made to the track with v-vocal and making them permanant)... v-vocal is taken out of the equation... and that frees up more CPU cycles and memory space for use!

so by creating a v-vocal clip on the word or phrase I want to tweak, modifying it as necessary, and then right clicking on the v-vocal clip and hitting "bounce to clip" I am permanently applying the effect to the word or phrase, but freeing up CPU cycles/memory?

Correct.
When you first apply V-V to a clip, sonar will mute the original and create a copy for you to work on. You can verify this by enabling track layers.
The original, muted clip will always be there for you if V-V gets messed up - or you mess up - and you want to go back to square one.
