I'll be paying very close attention to the answers to this question. I've also wondered the same thing.

I know we've discussed this before. However, I have a ton of projects whereI've frozen soft synths into tracks that eventually got rendered as mp3s. Assuming I unfreeze all those soft synths, how can I get rid of all the audio tracks that the freeze command initially created? I'm pretty sure that the presence of frozen and thawed wave files is needlessly chewing up hard disk space that I would like back.

Sorry if I'm not understanding what you're saying about enabling the eq while the track is frozen, etc. Omar Binno www.omarbinno.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Luis Elorza" <luiselorza@xxxxxxxxx> To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2008 3:45 PM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: question about changing eqs on softsynth trackshi Omar: the idea tfor using the freeze feature is that you can go back and unfreeze it and the track will come alive just as it was before. when you freeze a track or a synth the eq is disabled. if you enable it again you will be putting eq over an already equalized track . then when you unfreeze you will only have the realtime eq instead of the one already bounced to the track. what i do is to unfreeze first and then make changes and then freeze again so i can keep the freezing option as what it is supposed to do. if you are sure you don't want to go back you can bounce to track and erase your frozen track. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Omar Binno" <omarbinno@xxxxxxxxx> To: <ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2008 3:44 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: question about changing eqs on softsynth tracks Hi Gord, What i am saying though is, if I make the eq changes while the track is frozen, will that work? It sounds like its changing, and I am doing it while it's frozen. Is that okay?
