An Ableton Live 5 question
Hey, is there a way to render your midi clips in Ableton? In the song I'm working on right now I have 5 instances of Reaktor 5 running plus Battery 2 and a slew of Waves plugins... if I can render out my drums and my bass track though I could trim down my CPU usage fairly dramatically...

Anyone have any tips or suggestions?

Re: An Ableton Live 5 question
I'm too lazy to open Live right now to check but I believe what you want to do is make an audio track and choose the input as "resampling" which will allow you to make a real-time bounce of whatever tracks you want. Whether or not you have any options for non-realtime bouncing...me no know.

By the way, though, I was going to suggest this for all us Live sound designy types...it's kind of silly, but I adore it:

Take Plaid's track Squance and loop the first two bars. I love the resulting sound so much I can just listen to it loop and I'm contemplating re-recording every CD I own with that added over top of it. Throw that sound with anything.

You can freeze the tracks that you're happy with. Select the track with the right mouse button, choose freeze track and wait. This will help reducing the cpu usage.
