I discovered that you can freeze tracks with external processing if you do
the freeze in real time like you would do a Paris bounce. Either I missed
this somehow in Cubase SX3x or it is something new. At any rate, this is
totally amazing. Just jot down the type of and settings of the external
processor in the channel notepad, freeze the track(s) and you've got recall
of tracks that were processed with outboard gear. I haven't tried it yet but
I'm assuming that you can also unfreeze them at any time.

Man.....Paris is looking more and more like the history channel here. Even
Amy likes Cubase 4 with the sound of that Neve box strapped on the mix bus.
this is the first time I've ever heard her say she was good with a Cubase
mix vs what she's used to hearing around here. I'm just so tired of jumping
from platform to platform. Now all I've got to do is get comfortable
tracking/punching on a native system and get my head completely around
Totalmix. How hard can that be if John and Neil can do it ;oD???

I don't think ASIO direct moni6toring is going to be such a PITA really.
I've just never done it in a *fro real* session so it's a little
intimidating to pur all my eggs in one basket. Really, it wouldn't be too
different from what I'm doing now.When I track to Paris, I don't really use
FX because I've got external reverbs paired with my headphone mixers so the
talent can adjust their own reverb and track levels anyway. As long as they
aren't hearing any latency, they should be happy. Guess I'm going to have to
start getting my head around this. Paris is just so stable for tracking that
I may never give it up. Tracking sessions are just sooo critical. A couple
of major FU's and the vibe is lost and the whole session can go downhill.

This Cubase SX 4 has definitely got me stoked.....waiti........I probably
said that, didn't I?

I was talking to the good folks of Portico at NAMM. During
the discussion, one of the guys pulled out a laminated D
size print of a console layout they are working on (5088).
It will be a mix/monitor console with an overbridge card
cage that will house the Portico modules. Looks sweet! ;-)

You have to have one or... oh, nevermind... ;-)

Deej, that sounds great! Maybe your life will get simpler.

Now then, what to do with all the extra time you'll have...hmm...broker
peace in the Persian Gulf? Cure cancer? Rebuild an old car? Hike up a
mountain? Take up gardening? Put solar panels on the barn? Paint
detailed impressionist replicas on your toenails? Whittle?

Cheers,

Guitar!!! .which in my case, always leads to songwriting/composition. Also,
learn to be a Cubase Power user and work with another engineer in this area
who had invited me onboard and is a very experienced producer and successful
mix engineer so I can refine my studio skills is what I've got in mind. I
can alternate between these realistic goals with some focus now. I've just
had such a "jones" to settle on one platform that can do what I need well
and sounds good to me. I'm tired of experimentation. I've had pretty much
enough. I'm not tearing down my Paris rig just yet...not until I get
comfortable tracking to native. It's just such a joy o sit down at a single
app and be able to focus instead of setting up sends/returns for FX in
Pulsar and Paris, routing everything through the Scope mixer and enabling
auxes in Pulsar, then getting track levels and applying insert FX and
automation in Cubase plus more FX in Pulsar and Paris and then doing
automated panning more automated levels and getting final submix levels set
in Paris for the bounce to disk....all while keeping up with outboard FX,
cataloging everything, managing two mix surfaces and keeping up with six
computer screens in real time. I've been mixing this way for almost two
years. It's very interesting while I'm doing it but it's time consuming to
set up and maintain so that a mix can be recalled. I don't think the analog
based studios I've had experience with had nearly the complexity that I've
created here. Now that I've proven that it can work, I have discovered that
I really don't enjoy it and sort of dread getting into a mix. I feel burned
out long before I should.. Not a good place to be. To continue to work this
way is starting to feel counterproductive. The up side of it is that I've
learned a whole lot and had a chance to test lots of possible options so
when I make my final decisions about what I'm going to use, they will be
decisions based on having had choices and choosing what worked best for me.
If I can get a mix I am happy with out of a native system and an external
hardware box that emulates a tape recorder running at 15ips (the 7 1/2 ips
setting is a little raw) then I've come full circle and I'm glad of it. I've
had enough challenges and I just want to have some fun and use the right
side of my brain. As I said about a month ago, I'm jonesin' to get back into
playing and production work. My day job has been very time consuming lately
and I need to balance that out really bad. Sometimes I even feel like a
Republican.

;oD

My understanding is that Freeze does not allow further automation so
instead just render to a new track committing the effects, you can
always go back (see my section in my treepad on "rendering with
effects"). A trick the fine Morgan mentioned to me was to render a
track out fully wet and have two tracks side by side Dry and Wet, then
mix/automate to taste.

When you render with effects with File / Mixdown / Selected tracks you
can check add to pool and project window and the render will bring you a
new track back in. With this technique you can still add automation as
you ride faders/pans/eqs etc. Then disable the effects on the old track
or remove it entirely, or drag your new tracks events up to the old
one and replace it with the new committed events and delete the newly
added track.

CTRL drag will lock it as you drag up and down.

Copy Events by Select Events. Drag. Press Ctrl-Alt before releasing.

Also the multi track export scripts allow you to get a beverage and
export many tracks in a batch. Get them here for now:
www.kfocus.com/Multi Export of Individual Tracks.zip

Kick out the jams !

It was specifically meant to cause a head explosion ;o)

I just woke up and haven't had my coffee yet but I had to write something
down immediately upon waking,. I do think I've suffered some permanent brain
damage by getting so wrapped up in this stuff. I read the cubase manual and
the Totalmix info sheet of John's until around 4:30 AM and after I slipped
off to sleep I actually had a dream about a way to integrate my Plusar
system as a farm machine with the RME system as the recording/playback DAW
in a way that would create something similar to the Apogee Softlimit by
using the following routing matrix:

Source signal>Multiface converter>ADAT out of MF converter > ADAT in of
Pulsar card > Input of DSP based SoftSat processor or other DSP based peak
limiter limiter (should be maybe a sample or two latency)>output of SoftSat
processor> Pulsar ADAT out> Multiface ADAT in > Cubase recording channel..

You could, in theory, because of the extremely low latency of the DSP
basedPulsar FX, use any of them between the converter output and the
recording input channel in Cubase if you wanted to print the effect when
tracking or as I described, limit the signal peak before it was actually
recorded. Maybe the Pulsar guys do this on a regular basis, and it is
business as usual. I don't know.

I'll be experimenting with this to see if it was really just a dream or if
it is viable. theis would be extremely easy to set up and same as a template
and might actually do something useful rather than just create just another
layer of redundancy......or maybe I'll just go to the doctor and see if I
can get myself a scrip for chloral hydrate so I won't dream anymore.

That enough paragraphs for you?

;o)
