Hi, Berhane. Phil explained this and it makes a lot of sense. If you'd like
to save the wear on your PC power, then you can bounce your soft synths to
become audio tracks. You have to select each individual synth's MIDI and audio
track(s). The Bounce Track command is in the Edit menu I think. JAWS will
announce the length of time it takes to bounce these tracks. When done, you
will find a new track added to the bottom of the Track Pane. It will say
Entire Mix but you can rename it however you wish, because now it is a total
audio track. Now you can Alt R to archive the selected MIDI/audio track(s)
since you don't need them anymore. I generally then hide these tracks as well
so I don't have to deal with them anymore. But, if you feel you need to redo
something, you can unarchive the synth's MIDI/audio tracks and edit, delete the
previously bounced track, and then again bounce. When you have many soft
synths being used in a project, I always thought it was best to bounce to save
the synth from taxxing the PC, but I guess it depends on how powerful your
machine is.

By the way, what is the main purpose of bouncing Tracks?
Thank you,
Berhane

You don't need to bounce softsynthes as Sonar will mix down the audio from them
when you do mix down audio in the export audio dialog box. If you need to get
CPU cycles back then, you could freeze tracks/softsynthes. This allows the
tracks in question to still play but freezes the audio affects and softsynthes.
in other words the tracks still play back but, you have gained some CPU cycles
because the softsynthes and affects have been frozen.

Hi, folks. Just got on here. Did I understand you to say, Phil, that you don't
have to bounce individual synth and their associated audio tracks before
exporting? Is there a reason why it is best to do so or not to do so? I can
see that bouncing tracks before exporting will add more tracks, but I always
have archived the synth/audio tracks after bouncing. If Sonar automatically
does this during exporting, then I've learned something else new that will save
me a lot of time. Thanks! SLB

No you don't need too. further more, if your not getting any drop outs then,
you don't need to freeze any softsynthes either.

I assume you ultimately bounce the softsynth tracks before exporting?

No. freezing and bouncing are different.

When you say "I don't even freeze a softsynth until I'm done, because I might
decide to change an eq or effect on a particular instrument," are you using the
term freeze synonymously with the bounce to track command?
