  • [SOLVED] X2 + BFD: Why is my MIDI bounce not working? (p.3)

While still working in MIDI, I have unused outputs archived to lighten the CPU load and I must remember to unArchive them before attempting to freeze or the freeze fails and leaves the tracks empty. I know I don't need this after the freeze but I do times forget as the archived outputs are typically hidden at that point... So I was thinking he might have a track in such a state thereby causing it to leave all tracks empty after performing all the work to create the freeze...

The problem Keni is Beep uses bounce not freeze. We are attempting to persuade him to use freeze.

Ooops...
 
Thanks for the reminder...
 
Sorry Beepster....

Thats not what I see Mike. Page 804 is Editing MIDI events and continuous controllers. Under the chapter MIDI effects (MIDI plug-ins)


I've gone back and fixed my typo thanks.

It should have been page 864/5.

I tried convincing him last week, in a couple of pretty lengthy posts (for me ) that freezing the synth was the way to go.
I never bounce to track. I bounce Midi to clip quite a bit, but  never to track, unless it's a one off for converting 2 mono tracks into a stereo track.
 
You should try it Beep, I'm 100% convinced it will give you the results you want/expect

@ John, Jonesey...
 
Thanks, guys. I tried the Freeze option before moving on to this method. It will indeed work and may become my default way of doing this. I know you guys think I'm being weird (which I probably am) but as I was saying in the other thread this is more of an educational exercise so I wanted to get this method down as well. After all this is done and I've moved on to other projects I will be taking a closer look at the exact differences between the two so I can make an informed decision as to what course of action to take in specific situations. If I use freeze for something like this I would indeed be copying the waves generated into new tracks. I just want to make sure that I am not going to experience any unforeseen consequences like reduced flexibility or audio quality while using one or the other. Also I may need to use similar features elsewhere so having an idea of the more traditional bouncing method may come in handy. Knowledge is power and you guys have consistently provided me with knowledge and extra options. Thanks again for your ideas even if I'm being weird. ;-p
 
@Keni... Thanks for the insight. All seems to be under control now. Just a silly missed step but I'll watch out for the problems you mentioned. Cheers.
 
@jb... Thank you again for taking the time to try this out and providing the solution. I will change the title to SOLVED. Cheers.

This should be a non-issue Beep.
 
Like I said in the other thread, I start mixing as soon as I've got anything recorded, Midi and Audio. Freezing the synths with the correct options selected enables mixing to carry on afterwards - I'm just using Audio now, not Midi

That's cool, Jonesey and I will be trying all that out. Definitely not saying you aren't 100% right. I just like trying things out and poking at all the dark corners.
 
Anyway, I have worn out my welcome here on the forum so ya'll take care. I am taking a break from this place and will have muscle through all this on my own.
 
Thanks for all the help, guys. Maybe I'll see you in a few months.
