- mixer snapshots... needed for remembering mute/solo/rec/mon/arm states plus the visual switches for envelopes/folders on each track (snapshots overide automation on channel switches, i.e. mute/solo etc.)
- define freeze, well heres my version
... select sound clips > right click > "fx render selected clips" or the "entire track" containing any sound clips selected, (this renders & creates a freeze sub folder on 1 or more channels (depending on selection).
Once rendered it automatically mutes FX on the original (plus selected clips)... main track gets its mute button replaced by a "F" freeze active indication which is toggled from the freeze track mute solo - this way you can have multiple freeze sub folders with different FX versions of each - but only 1 on at a time.
If only a few clips were rendered then those rendered clips are to be muted individually in the original & the FX still enabled for that track (there would need to be fx usage per clip to see this benefit).
If you perform an edit on the original, just drag the new edit to the freeze track and that segment is automatically rendered with fx applied. Ok its a rough idea off the top... dont flame!
- pre roll 2 cursor for record & playback would be a gem to have in tracking sessions... especially if the guys know what they doing... much easier to drop a marker on the fly if someone plays a turd (not 3rd), stop > # marker position "rewind" > place cursor or go from marker > hit rec (with 2 bar preroll)
