Freezing tracks in Omnisphere

Post by jazzstan » Tue Feb 05, 2013 12:01 pm

I'm sure there is a simple thing I am overlooking, but ... when I want to freeze a track in Omnisphere (within Sonar X2), it freezes all 8 tracks. Which takes a lot of time. What settings should I be twiddling to freeze just one selected track?

Stan,

In Omnisphere (and Stylus) I route the each sound to a separate output (A, B , C etc. ) and then delete the unused audio outputs before freezing the synth. Only the sounds that you are using will be rendered as audio. This approach offers a lot of flexibilty when mixing and when you are doing alt mixes.

HTH.

Chuck - Thanks! That gives me an idea for an alternate solution ... In the Omnisphere multi/mixer, I could route the selected track to the "A" channel, and route everything else to B or G, etc. In Sonar, I can interrupt the freeze after the "A" channel is completed, and I get a "save tracks?" option - which keeps the frozen wav files. So that minimizes the freeze time. Yay!
